Dear people, Now is the time for the Myanmar New Year. I wish all the people of Myanmar a happy and prosperous New Year. Today, we, the people of Myanmar, are still going through a political crisis. Therefore, I would like to say that it is time to overcome this political crisis completely. We must, therefore, refrain from any action that leads to disintegrating the country and attempting to destabilize the country. There is no denying that these can only be achieved through the people.

MINGALA to all May you all have good deeds called Mingala during Myanmar New Year – Thingyan festival full of Mingala. Mingala means prosperity, and also keeping away from destructive elements means Mingala. It can be achieved by doing, saying or thinking the good things. It is important not to do or think the negative things. Transitioning to a new year is a period to change the time and it also depends on our activities and mind, like we eat when we want to and go when we want to. If we wish Mingala all the time, we must keep that in mind, especially Metta (loving-kindness). It also means wisdom. If one’s mind is full of Metta and wisdom to decide on all cases and put Metta (loving-kindness), Karuna (compassion), Mudita (emulation) and Oppitka (detachment) on all living things. Those who have such Metta and Pyinya will have Mingala, and all the things they do are also Mingala. If we do good things, we will achieve good prosperity or Mingala. If we avoid doing bad things, it will keep us far from harmful things. Everybody thinks that all the things they do are the good ones. So, will the things they do offer positive effects? If not, they need to consider it again.

FROM the transition to the 1384 New Year from 1383 ME, all Myanmar people should do good deeds for themselves and others while doing their daily routines like physical action, verbal action and mental action. The Buddha ordered His son Rahula “ to use a mirror and consider while doing physical, verbal and mental actions”. By following the teachings of Buddha, may the people be free of anger in doing physical, verbal and mental actions for the benefit of themselves, other people, the country and Sasana, and safe and gain achievements peacefully.

DURING the transition period to a New Year, there would be demerits that cause Dukkha (sufferings). At that time, the people should tell their beads of the attributes of Buddha, disperse Metta and share the merits, and keep Metta on their minds sharing the merits to all living things.
