Buddha always preached to people in simple language and in context related to life. This is why common people can understand his teachings and implement them in their lives. He always talked about practical matters. Once upon a time. Mahatma Buddha was preaching self-welfare to the people in the Dharma Sabha. One of his disciples asked, Lord! Man remains entangled in so many situations, he cannot get rid of them.In such a situation, how can he benefit himself? The path of life seems very difficult, then how can he find the path of liberation in life? Gautam Buddha said that self-research is the only way to lead a man to the path of duty and dharma.
A man should think in his mind what kind of shortcomings he has due to which he is not able to walk on the path of self-welfare. Self-research is the path on which man can not only make his life happy but can also benefit himself. Gautam Buddha presented the example of a woman and said, what does a woman do every day? The first thing she does when she wakes up in the morning is look at her face in the mirror. She makes every possible effort to make her face clear and beautiful. She sees in the mirror that if there is any dirt on her face, she immediately removes it.
If it doesn't go away, she washes her face with clean water and cleans it with a cloth. Similarly, man should also observe the evils within and outside himself. If even a slight deficiency is noticed, then efforts should be made to remove it. The only way to keep body and mind pure is self-research.
