Karaniya Metta Suthraya_ Pitiduwe Siridhamma Thero_- කරනණීය මෙත්ත සූත්‍රය

Karaniya Metta Suthraya_--
Pitiduwe Siridhamma Thero_-
කරනණීය මෙත්ත සූත්‍රය
This is one of the great teachings of the Load Buddha, before 2500 years.Mostly suitable for today's life. If anyone can behave and make feel, according to "Karaneeya Meththa Suthraya" will win the entire life with soul.

I had to separate this video according to the Youtube rules. I've extracted the meaning in English by another site like this.
*****English Translation***********

(This is a fairly literal translation by Jayarava,
www.visiblemantra.org/metta-sutta.html )

This is what ought to be done by one skilled in the good
Having understood the path to peace
Able, straight forward and straight up,
polite, they should be mild and not arrogant

Contented and frugal,
with few responsibilities and easy going,
grounded, and not impulsive;
not chasing status

And not doing the slightest thing
which is denounced by the Wise in others
May they have happiness and peace;
May all beings be happy in themselves

Whatever living beings there are
fearful or fearless without remainder
Huge, large,
medium, small. Fine or coarse.

Seen or unseen,
Remote or living nearby,
Born or seeking birth:
May all beings be happy in themselves

Not humiliating,or despising
anyone anywhere
Though anger or experiencing repugnance:
[they] should not wish suffering for another.

Like a mothers own child,
[she will] protect that only child with her life
Thus for all beings should
the heart become infinite

And friendliness for all the world,
[should] the heart become infinite
In all the directions of space,
unobstructed, peaceable, without enmity

Standing, walking, sitting
or lying down, As far as possible without sluggishness
This mindfulness should be undertaken;
[It is like] dwelling with god here and now

Not falling into views,
ethical and with perfect vision
Having given up greed for sensory pleasures,
freed without doubt from birth.
