Most people are afraid of these few things: to apply the principle of Buddha Dhamma to develop their ways of life, so as to adopt a better and happier life. Thus, the objective of this study on the Principle of Buddha Dhamma to develop old age people is to encourage them to live a happy and meaningful life, according to their own ways. The method of study will be from the research documents and the analysis of the research study. The Principle of the Buddha dhamma for the Elderly (old age) can be classified into 4 steps of their life span: (1) Pappharathasaka (Fragile): can apply the Practices of Buddhadhamma like Theradhamma principle by the elderly through their respectful observance of the precepts and practicing meditations, (2) Wangkathasaka (Handicapped): People who are handicapped like people who are with bent back, wheelchair bound, can practice the Dhamma of 7 Noble treasures to accumulate the Noble treasures to lead them to the permanent happiness or Nibbana, (3) Momuhathasaka (Oblivious aging): Those who are forgetful due to aging, and stress can use the practice of Mindfulness and Awareness, and accordingly do physical exercises, yoga, walking meditation, and mindful concentration, and (4) Sanyanathasaka (Bedridden): The elderly with full mindfulness and awareness can bring the three Characteristics of Dhamma into practice in their lives. The three Characteristics are: Impermanence, Dissatisfactions or Suffering, and No-self or selflessness, to let go of the attachment. |
