It is heartening to note that Buddhists in Malaysia are
gaining recognition for their signicant contribution to the
world community while at the same time developing a rec-
ognizable identity of their own. While in the past Malay-
sians were depending on the cultures of the predominantly
Buddhist countries like China, ailand, Sri Lanka and
Myanmar, today Malaysians have begun a trend to merge
these various traditions and evolve a distinctive Malaysian
Buddhist character.
Also a sizeable number of knowledgeable Buddhists
are making contributions to this new culture not only
through their Dhamma talks and the organization of
Buddhist activities like seminars and conferences, but also
in areas such as art, literature and poetry.
e Sasana Abhiwurdhi Wardhana Society, the old-
est registered Buddhist society in Malaysia has embarked
on a modest programme to publish books for the benet of
all Malaysian Buddhists. We are extremely proud that the
Sasana Abhiwurdhi Wardhana Society has been given the
honour to publish this book authored by our most Venerable
teacher, Dr K Sri Dhammananda Nayaka Maha era, the
Chief High Priest of Malaysia and Singapore.

is present volume is oered to the reader to com-
memorate Esala Poya which is a very important date on the
Buddhist calendar. It marks the day on which the Buddha
delivered his rst sermon after his Enlightenment more
than centuries ago.
is book by our Venerable teacher will no doubt go
a long way in keeping the glorious ame of the Dhamma
alight to enlighten future generations and help them attain
the nal bliss of Nibbana.

is year we, the members of the Human Race entered into
into what has been termed by the largely Western-dominated
international media as the ird Millennium or for
short. We have been subjected to an enormous amount
of hype by commercial interest groups and some religious
enthusiasts who promised us that the world would surely
end. e ignorant, the superstitious and the fearful were
especially a target for these groups. New cults sprang up
threatening the wrath of a frustrated God on humanity that
has consistently refused to believe in him or obey his unre-
alistic commands. e gullible were persuaded to part from
their material wealth and even kill themselves to escape the
ultimate, nal holocaust of the end of the world. en of
course, there were those who made loud and strident calls
to warn us of the horrors of the “millennium bug” which
would wipe out modern civilization at midnight on the last
day of . Computers were supposed to erase information
relating to when we had been insured, when we were last
inoculated, that our xed deposits interest rates would have
to be renewed… the prospects were simply horrifying! en
came the great anti-climax — nothing happened! ere
were many shame-faced religionists who had to run to their
holy books and interpret them — once again.
Now, what was the Buddhist attitude to all of this?
We did not join the mad crowd and viewed this whole situ-
ation calmly and rationally. To begin with, we remembered
that we reached our second millennium ve hundred years
ago and we are already half way into our third millennium.
at certainly gave us some greater seniority and maturity
with which to view the universe and to advise our fellow be-
ings on how to conduct ourselves in the pursuit of ultimate
happiness. Perhaps we could now prevail on our younger
brothers and sisters with dierent world views that their
perspectives have motivated them to act in ways danger-
ous not only to the human race but to all inhabitants on
this lovely planet, including plants and animals. Before
we become too smug and divide the human race into “us”
Buddhists and “them”, the rest, let me hasten to remind
ourselves that all of us have been guilty of joining the same
rat race and those who call themselves “Buddhists” have just
as happily trod the “primrose path” of sensuality, material-
ism and greed like almost everyone else in the th Century.
What I will proceed to discuss in the rest of this essay is how
