We had been learning about Buddha teaching that about how you can do a good and have deep thinking about life itself. control our mind from the bad thing outside who can be leaven in our mind. so if we are think good and we can do good too. we have to exile our bad thinking from our mind, especially desire for something not good for us and everything around us. Abijato had been leading us into meditation process, which we had to keep our mind focus in our breathing in and out process. meditation is a process to control our mind and decreasing negative things such as anger. if can control your anger, it's gonna easy for you to control your emotion when facing situation that make you mad and angry.

Borobudur was built upon the ancient lake, because if we look from the sky Borobudur likes a lotus where grew on the mud and water. That's why before we go to Borobudur, Abijato had been telling us about lotus glass engraving on the monastery. Humans just like lotus where born and life in the mud, then grow up like shoot lotus which be pictured like we live in the word and there are many problem. if we can facing all that problem life, then the shoot lotus will grow upon the water and then become lotus flowers.
