Paranimmitavasavattmain devanam saddam sutva, Brahmakayika deva sadda-manussavesum. Etam Bhagavata Bar^asiyam Isipatane migadaye anuttaram Dhammacakkam pavattitam, appativattiyam samanena va brtonanena va devena va marena va brahmuna va kenaci va lokasminti. Upon hearing the happy cry of ParanimmitavasavattI deities, the deities in the Brahma world raised ajoyous cry of jubilation. They proclaimed: \"At the Isipatana Deer Park, this incomparable wheel of Truth is turned by the Buddha,which no recluse, brahmin,deity[from the six classes of Heaven], Mara, deity from the Brahma world or other being in the world can stop it.\" Acknowledgement from Nature Itiha tena khanena tena muhuttena yava brahmaloka saddo abbhugganchi. Ayanca dasasahassT lokadhatu sankampi sampakampi sampavedhi. Appamano ca olaro obhaso loke paturahosi atikkammeva devanam devanubhavam. www.kalyanamitra.org

For a moment, the joyous cry ofjubilation was heard throughout the Brahma world. Tens of thousands of world systems (lokadhatu) shook and trembled. An unprecedentedlightofimmeasurable radiance appeared on Earth, surpassing the power of all deities. The First Enlightened Monk Disciple Atha kho Bhagava udmiam ud^iesi: Annasi vata bho Kondanno, ann^i vata bho Kondannoti' The Buddha then said \"Kondhanna has fully understood. Kondhafina has fully understood.\" Iti h'idam ayasmato Kondannassa Anfia kondanno' tVeva namam ahosrti. Thus, ascetic Kondhanna was given the name \"Anfia kondhafifia Bhikkhu\" or \"Kondhafifia the Knower\". www.kalyanamitra.org

The Buddha gave the world a time-tested blueprintfor happiness,which begins with loving oneselfthe right way.He prescribes a series of behavioral medicines for putting a permanent end to one's suffering and for achieving eternal, unconditional happiness. His core teachings are encapsulated in his first sermon following his Enlightenment called The Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta The life lessons drawn from the Buddha's most important sermon that led to the birth ofBuddhism provide a solution for social ills and individuals'problems.Ifonly people knew how to love themselves,most oftheir problems- and hence society's problems- would instantly disappear.The search for unconditionallove and happiness begins with loving oneselfthe right way. www.kalyanamitra.org
