Come thou,Brother! Seeing an object with the attention , be not charmed by its general appreance or its details.

And so do with the other organs of sense .

When you hear a sound with the ear , or smell a scent with the nose,taste a taste with the tongue,or with body touch things tangible, and when with mind you are conscious of a thing,be not charmed with its general appreance or its details.

It is not appropriate for a teacher to issue certificates to student to announce that they have attained nibbana 

Otherwise it becomes an ego building competitions for teacher and for student 

The students strive only to get a certificate and the more certificates for teacher issue, the higher is his reputation 

The exprience of nibana become secondary, this certificate takes primary importance, and it all become mad game

Pure Dhamma is only to help people and the best help is to see that a student really experiences nibbana and become liberated 

The whole purpose of the teacher and the teaching is to help people genuinely, not to boost their ego 

It is not game
There are two sides of the same coin 

Emotion is a mental and sensation is a physical but the two are interrelated 

Actually every emotions, anything that arise in the mind, must arise along with the sensation in the body. 

This is the law of nature.
If you see it and observe respiration, it will clam and concentrate the mind, but unless you feel sensation, the process of cleansing cannot work at the different levels 


Conclusion -


In the depths of the mind training, reaction start with sensation, which occurs constantly.

It is the wish to serve people, to help them out of suffering. 

But it must be without attachment. 

If you start crying over the suffering of others, you only make yourself unhappy .

This is not the path of Dhamma. 

If you have true compassion then with all love you try to help others to the best of your ability .

If you fail you smile and try another way to help. 

You serve without worrying about the result of your service. This real compassion proceeding from a balance mind.
