Do not misunderstand or misinterpret me or give a prejudgment before finishing this article.&nbsp; Once you finished reading, consider the current political scenario in present Myanmar according to Buddha\u2019s teachings. Then only you will understand the truth and wisdom of our religious teachings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a saying, \u201cEyes do not see; only the brain sees\u201d. Yes if you do not look and think, you could easily miss the truth. If we observe with care only, we could understand and see the truth and essence of our religion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the time of Lord Buddha, there was a prosperous and busy country called \u2018Wai Thar Li\u2019 or Vesali. (Please allow me to use these modern, Burmanized, easily recognizable words instead of real words in Pali or real names in India e.g. Vesali.

What you call? Yes, why he had chosen that Kyat Pyae (meaning Ghost run or Run because of difficulties) or Kyet Pyae (Chicken Run) area to be named as \u2018Nay Pyi Daw\u2019?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Why never dare to give the beautiful name as Wai Thar Li?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why scared? Is he afraid that his town is not worthy of that name and he would be in trouble or be cursed if he chose that noble name?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Or is he has given the name \u2018Nay Pyi Daw\u2019 based from his step father Nay Win\u2019s name? Let it be. I do not wish to elaborate further. I lost the track of my precious relagious conversation because of the distraction by this war criminal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s go back to our religious story. One day, Lord Buddha visited Wai Thar Li and stayed at the \u2018Amva Pali\u2019 mango garden. Once heard that news, \u2018Lizza Wee\u2019 princes wore their best clothing to visit and pay respect to Lord Buddha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(They were not like SPDC Generals, who wore Military Uniforms with golden badges adding flowers and white cloth sling across the shoulders but carry the pistols at the loin to show off. A visit to the shrine or pagoda with the visible pistol is meant for what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To threaten God? Or-<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To show off the power? Or-<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To threaten the Abbots so that they dare not show any disrespect to them (generals)?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, even if they are paranoid and thought that they are surrounded by enemies, no need to carry the pistols obviously or openly. They could more discreetly carry their pistols hidden in the pockets or under the armpit. When I carried my pistol I never show off but secretly only. &nbsp;The SPDC Generals with pistols attached to leather belts are reminiscent of Fascist Japanese Captains or behaving like American cowboys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even Iraq\u2019s ex-Dictator Saddam Hussein ordered his soldiers not to wear uniforms in the public. He said that it could be seen as threatening the people and could cause misunderstanding on the government. People could think there is no peace and order.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The unity of those well dressed Princes even attracted the attention of Lord Buddha and told his monks,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDear sons, look at those \u2018Lizza Wee\u2019 people. They even resemble the angels from the \u2018Tar Wa Rein Tar\u2019 paradise.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Lord Buddha had seen those SPDC Generals in uniforms with dangling pistols, he would even comment,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDear sons, look at those SPDC people. They even resemble the butchers, hunters and assassins.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wai Thar Li country was so united, the king and his subjects, helping each other and staying as real brothers. Therefore, the country progressed and was prosperous. Naturally, the neighbours became jealous and attacked them but they all were defeated by the unified forces of Wai Thar Li.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once, \u2018King Azar Da That\u2019 sent the minister \u2018Mar Gada\u2019 to the Lord Buddha to ask opinion whether to attack Wai Thar Li or not. Although humanly problems are not his concern, Lord Buddha seen the detriment or dangers of the plan and instead of answering directly, asked the brother \u2018Ananda\u2019 the following seven questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those seven great questions and answers became famous as the \u2018A Pari Har Niya\u2019 meaning the \u2018Seven precepts which could never lead to failures\u2019 and later popularly known and accepted as the \u2018Seven precepts for the Kings and Rulers\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brother \u2018Ananda\u2019 answered Lord Buddha\u2019s questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDear Lord, those \u2018Wazzi\u2019 kings from Wai Thar Li are:_<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>They are united and always have meetings, discussions and conferences.<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the SPDC Generals never have the meeting with the people and opposition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They even never discuss amongst each other but just obey the orders of Senior General Than Shwe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>From the Appointments and Promotions in the Government to construction and shifting of the new capital, all are done under the foolish orders of His Majesty.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Even the TV programmes were abruptly stopped under his odd and whimsy orders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SPDC Generals are also divided and have a deep-seated hatred amongst themselves.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>So the precept Number one is out of question for them.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>They used to go to the meetings together and finished together.<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the SPDC Generals never used to go to the meetings together.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dare not have a meeting with the people or the opposition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The sham National Convention is also a staged show to deceive the people and the whole world.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Even that sham National Convention was used to convene twice a year only for the happy New Year and farewell conference at the year-end.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This procrastination exercise of convening a sham National Convention breaks the world record by starting in 1993 and is not finished even after 13 long years.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Selected obedient persons only are allowed there and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>most of the political parties, civil societies and Ethnic Minorities are conspicuously absent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Those attended are also kept like under the house arrest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Even NLD and Ethnic Minorities could not attend together means that<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The precept Number 2 is out of question for them.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Old tested Customs, Laws, Rules and Regulations are not abolish or abandoned but kept and obeyed.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
