Restrain from Drinking and Consuming Intoxicants
Intoxicants: In general this means allowing alcohol and drugs being absorbed into the body through drinking, inhaling, insertion, spraying, smoking, and injection
Cock-fight
He watched a special report in DMC about the closedown of a cock-fight gambling den in Saraburi province. This made he think of his father who liked to collect the Buddha images, gambled cock-fight and watched Thai-boxing because his dad was a boxer. What retributions caused his father to be sick and went in and out of the hospital for 5 years? What retributions caused him to have eye surgery, cirrhosis, vomit blood-clots, hiccup with the sound “cock-a-doodle-doo”, and difficulty in eating and drinking water?
Encourage Each Other
From a wealthy family we suddenly turned the opposite way, which we were not prepared for. My father drank even more after this depression. When he got drunk, he would hurt my mother several times.
Want To Say I Love You
A man, when he was in childhood he was diligent but when he was grown up he became a trouble maker because of his promiscuous behavior. He always asked money from parents and spent it all with women. His parents thought he might be under the influence of black magic so they took him to a black magic master to remove the curse but nothing was better. He was admitted to a nerve hospital once. His mother ordained him as a monk at a temple. During his ordination, he was better but things turned back to be same after he quitted a priesthood. Did he have a mental problem from a black magic…..what is the Kammar of his parents to have so much sorrow with their son in this life?
Black Magic and Three Wives
One man got 3 wives. The first wife and the second one were suspicious that he was under a spell of black magic from the third wife so they coordinated together to find someone to help resolve the black magic. After he had passed away for 8 days, his third wife prepared a ceremony to receive Dhamma from Kuan Yin Goddess. They said, this ceremony was from the higher class in Taiwan, and it can powerfully dismiss the recipients name from hell.
Drinking Alcohol, Do We Need It?
I have heard many reasons for drinking: family problems, work problems, addiction, seductive advertising, society, health, curiosity, peer pressure, availability, and depression.
