This is a defect in that mortifier. Furthermore, a mortifier undertakes a practice of mortification. They glorify themselves and put others down on account of that. This too is a defect in that mortifier. Furthermore, a mortifier undertakes a practice of mortification. They become indulgent and infatuated and fall into negligence on account of that.

<em>Four spectrums of the teaching:</em> ethics, immersion, wisdom, and freedom. <em>Four powers:</em> energy, mindfulness, immersion, and wisdom. <em>Four foundations:</em> A mendicant develops the basis of psychic power that has immersion due to enthusiasm, and active effort. the foundations of wisdom, truth, generosity, and peace. <em>Four ways of answering questions:</em> There is a question that should be answered categorically. There is a question that should be answered analytically. Ther

It’s just like when you clean one hand with the other, or clean one foot with the other. In the same way, wisdom is cleansed by ethics, and ethics are cleansed by wisdom. “That’s so true, brahmin, that’s so true! For wisdom is cleansed by ethics, and ethics are cleansed by wisdom. But what, brahmin, is that ethical conduct? And what is that wisdom?” “That’s all I know about this matter, worthy Gotama. May the worthy Gotama himself please clarify the meaning of this.” Ethics and wisdom always go

When a mendicant enters into and withdraws from these eight liberations—in forward order, in reverse order, and in forward and reverse order—wherever they wish, whenever they wish, and for as long as they wish; and when they realize the undefiled freedom of heart and freedom by wisdom in this very life, and live having realized it with their own insight due to the ending of defilements, they’re called a mendicant who is freed both ways. And, Ānanda, there is no other freedom both ways that is be

It’s just like when you clean one hand with the other, or clean one foot with the other. In the same way, wisdom is cleansed by ethics, and ethics are cleansed by wisdom. Ethics and wisdom always go together. An ethical person is wise, and a wise person ethical. And ethics and wisdom are said to be the best things in the world. “Well then, brahmin, listen and apply your mind well, I will speak.” fourth absorption … They project and extend the mind toward knowledge and vision … This pertains to t

‘Continued existence is a requirement for rebirth’—that’s what I said. And this is a way to understand how this is so. Suppose there were totally and utterly no continued existence for anyone anywhere. That is, continued existence in the sensual realm, the realm of luminous form, or the formless realm. When there’s no continued existence at all, with the cessation of continued existence, would rebirth still be found?” “No, sir.” “That’s why this is the cause, source, origin, and reason of rebirt

This pertains to their wisdom. This, brahmin, is that wisdom.” “Yes, worthy sir,” Soṇadaṇḍa replied. The Buddha said this: “It’s when a Realized One arises in the world, perfected, a fully awakened Buddha … That’s how a mendicant is accomplished in ethics. This, brahmin, is that ethical conduct. … They enter and remain in the first absorption … second absorption … third absorption …

And at the very least they swelled the hosts of the centaurs. “I remember, Pañcasikha. I myself was the brahmin Great Steward at that time. And I taught those disciples the path to rebirth in the company of Divinity. But that spiritual path of mine doesn’t lead to disillusionment, dispassion, cessation, peace, insight, awakening, and extinguishment. It only leads as far as rebirth in the realm of divinity. But this spiritual path does lead to disillusionment, dispassion, cessation, peace, insigh

There is an incarnation where only one’s own intention is effective, not that of others. There is an incarnation where only the intention of others is effective, not one’s own. There is an incarnation where both one’s own and others’ intentions are effective. There is an incarnation where neither one’s own nor others’ intentions are effective. <em>Four ways of purifying a religious donation:</em> There’s a religious donation that’s purified by the giver, not the recipient. There’s a religious do

Those of my disciples who completely understand my instructions realize the undefiled freedom of heart and freedom by wisdom in this very life. And they live having realized it with their own insight due to the ending of defilements. Of those disciples who only partly understand my instructions, some, with the ending of the five lower fetters, become reborn spontaneously. They are extinguished there, and are not liable to return from that world. Some, with the ending of three fetters, and the we

<em>Four ways of being inclusive:</em> giving, kindly words, taking care, and equality. <em>Four ignoble expressions:</em> speech that’s false, divisive, harsh, or nonsensical. <em>Four noble expressions:</em> refraining from speech that’s false, divisive, harsh, or nonsensical. <em>Another four ignoble expressions:</em> saying you’ve seen, heard, thought, or known something, but you haven’t. <em>Another four noble expressions:</em> saying you haven’t seen, heard, thought, or known something, an

And when the night had passed Soṇadaṇḍa had delicious fresh and cooked foods prepared in his own home. Then he had the Buddha informed of the time, saying, Then the Buddha robed up in the morning and, taking his bowl and robe, went to the home of Soṇadaṇḍa together with the mendicant Saṅgha, where he sat on the seat spread out. Then Soṇadaṇḍa served and satisfied the mendicant Saṅgha headed by the Buddha with his own hands with delicious fresh and cooked foods. When the Buddha had eaten and wash

Also, the Buddha has well described the practice that leads to extinguishment for his disciples. And extinguishment converges with the practice, as the waters of the Ganges join together and converge with the waters of the Yamuna. I don’t see any Teacher, past or present, who so clearly describes the practice that leads to extinguishment for his disciples, apart from the Buddha. Also, possessions and popularity have accrued to the Buddha, so much that you’d think it would thrill even the aristoc

‘Sire, I can’t survive.’ Then the king thought, ‘If I provide money to anyone who steals from others, it will only increase the stealing. I’d better make an end of this person, finish him off, and chop off his head.’ Then he ordered his men, ‘Well then, my men, tie this man’s arms tightly behind his back with a strong rope. Shave his head and march him from street to street and square to square to the beating of a harsh drum. Then take him out the south gate and make an end of him, finish him of

But my wealth relies on my reputation. If, when I have gone to an assembly, I raise my joined palms, please take it that I have risen from my seat. And if I undo my turban, please take it that I have bowed. And the worthy Gotama, if, when I am in a carriage, I get down from my carriage and bow to the Buddha, that assembly might disparage me for that. Then the Buddha educated, encouraged, fired up, and inspired the brahmin Soṇadaṇḍa with a Dhamma talk, after which he got up from his seat and left

As long as the mendicants share without reservation any material things they have gained by legitimate means, even the food placed in the alms-bowl, using them in common with their ethical spiritual companions, they can expect growth, not decline. As long as the mendicants live according to the precepts shared with their spiritual companions, both in public and in private—such precepts as are intact, impeccable, spotless, and unmarred, liberating, praised by sensible people, not mistaken, and le

And Candana and Kāmaseṭṭha, Kinnughaṇḍu and Nighaṇḍu, Panāda and Opamañña, and Mātali, the god’s equerry. Cittasena the centaur came too, Then came the dragons of Nābhasa lake,

So then another man stole something from others. They arrested him and presented him to the king, saying, ‘Your Majesty, this person stole from others.’ The king said to that person, People heard about this: ‘It seems the king is chopping the head off anyone who steals from others!’ It occurred to them, ‘We’d better have sharp swords made. Then when we steal from others, we’ll make an end of them, finish them off, and chop off their heads.’ They had sharp swords made. Then they started to make r

“Come, Ānanda, let’s go to Ambalaṭṭhikā.” “Yes, sir,” Ānanda replied. Then the Buddha together with a large Saṅgha of mendicants arrived at Ambalaṭṭhikā, where he stayed in the royal rest-house. And while staying there, too, he often gave this Dhamma talk to the mendicants: “Such is ethics, such is immersion, such is wisdom. When immersion is imbued with ethics it’s very fruitful and beneficial. When wisdom is imbued with immersion it’s very fruitful and beneficial. When the mind is imbued with

the brahmin Soṇadaṇḍa was going to see the ascetic Gotama. They approached Soṇadaṇḍa and said to him, “Is it really true that you are going to see the ascetic Gotama?” “Yes, gentlemen, it is true.” “Please don’t, worthy Soṇadaṇḍa! You recite and remember the hymns, and have mastered the three Vedas, together with their vocabularies and ritual performance, their phonology and word classification, and the testaments as fifth. You know them word-by-word, and their grammar. You are well versed in co
