(Fearless compassion)
ALL SUFFERING - disease, evil spirits, misfortune, court cases, etc. - is without exception the result of ego attachment.
Esso is the sole one responsible for all our troubles, the only source of all unpleasant events. We have nothing to reproach others; even if we were cut into pieces with a saber or hit with canes, these would be only the momentary circumstances of our wounds; the real cause of our pain is always our attachment to the ego, not the action of the enemy.
It was said :
All the catastrophes, all the pain, all the fears and sufferings in the world stem from attachment to the ego;
Why are you attached to this demon?
When people think their house is haunted by ghosts, or that a particular object is evil, they resort to the exorcist; ordinary people often do that, don't they? But the ghosts,
Demons and so on are just external enemies, and they can't really do us any harm. As soon as the enemy within, the attachment to the ego, the trouble really starts.
This attachment to ego, however, has never had any ground; we cling to our ego even when, in fact, there is nothing to cling to. But we hold on to it, and how we take care of it! For ego we do a lot of harm to others, we accumulate a lot of negative actions, and all of this to later suffer the suffering of the lower worlds of samsara.
The author of Bodhicharyavatara writes, addressing the ego :
You have spent countless eons in search of your well-being; and as a reward for this immense effort you have collected only pain.

Scams are becoming more sophisticated and far reaching, anyone can be caught by them, and in New Zealand we don’t have enough protections for keeping people safe.
At CAB, we regularly help members of the public with issues to do with scams. People come to us when they need help to know if something is a scam, or when they have been affected by a scam. We see the impacts scams can cause for their victims - the hardship and distress.
This is why we’re supporting the call for action to make New Zealanders safer from scams. Our friends at Consumer NZ are running a petition which asks for:
Banks to refund scam victims for authorised and unauthorised scam payments, unless the victim has been grossly negligent.
A national anti-scam framework requiring banks, telcos and digital platforms to take action to address scams and outlining their liability if they fail to meet their obligations.
A centralised anti-scam centre where relevant organisations work together to keep us safe.
If you would like to support this campaign by signing the Consumer NZ petition, you can do that here:
