Abstract
A somewhat consolidated analysis/synthesis, interwoven with the teachings of the Buddha in Pali and a recently published scientific experiment by (clinical) psychologist(s) dealing with issues of well-being, mindfulness and nonattachment via evaluation of Buddhist psychology, apropos interconnectedness, along with some enquires that the readers of this work, might want to ask or ponder upon . . . In summary, i endeavour to look at these teaching of the Buddha, from a few limited perspectives of my own and also share my personal insights that might have come to awareness, in meditations! Note again, it not what i have said so! One needs to meditate and over a period of time, as one evolves in the spiritual dimension, one needs to arrive at one’s own conclusions via experiential knowledge of what the Buddha said/imparted, some 2600 years back! In the end, by the way, i am not a scholar in Pali & Buddhist studies graduate programs and neither do i have research based interest in Pali language! One might find errors in use of spellings that might not be of EXACT precision, as demanded by Pali readers or Phd holders or those who are in academic settings @ the level of professors or otherwise. Having said this, the general context of the spirit of the meaning behind sound frequencies of the used words, should be clear to grasp and errors in the article are due to me. Later corrections of the article are possible, if and when time permits!
