We read that the Buddha said “I declare that it is in this fathom long body with its perceptions and mind, there is the world, the origin of the world, the cessation of the world, and the path leading to the cessation of the world. For it is in this fathom-long body/corpse, with its perception and mind, that I make known/declare/recognise the world, its arising, its cessation, and the practice that leads to its cessation. , universe paññapemi – paññapeti – causative form of pajanati – to make known, to declare, to define The ‘world’ depends upon perceptions and use of the mind to make it known.

The Buddha said he gave teachings for the “welfare of the many, out of empathy for the many, for the welfare and happiness of Gods (those who were one with God, plus kings, leaders, rich, powerful, gurus, Brahmins, saints and those people looked up to) and everybody else. The Buddha also added that the deepest teachings/practices included the Four Truths of the Noble Ones and the Four Applications of Mindfulness, namely breath/body, feelings, states of mind and application of the Dharma Such teachings show the way to liberation and waking up. The Buddha said he trained himself in the knowing all the elements of things and so could answer questions from the powerful, Brahmins, householders and yogis ‘on the spot.’ Clarity of mind and empathy in the heart point the way to abiding with God through deep experiences of love, compassion, appreciative joy and equanimity. The Expansive Heart and Communion with God Abiding with God, one generates love, compassion, appreciative joy and equanimity in all directions due to the liberation of mind.
