Daily Words of the Buddha for July 13, 2008

YathÄ naro ÄpagamotaritvÄ,

mahodakaṃ salilaṃ sīghasotaṃ,

so vuyhamÄno anusotagÄmÄ« --

kiṃ so pare sakkhati tÄrayetuṃ?

Audio: http://host.pariyatti.org/dwob/sutta_nipata_2_321.mp3

If one going down into a river,

swollen and swiftly flowing,

is carried away by the current --

how can one help others across?

Sutta NipÄta 2.321

Pabbatassa suvaṇṇassa,

jÄtarÅ«passa kevalo

dvittÄva nÄlamekassa:

iti vidvÄ samañcare.

Audio: http://host.pariyatti.org/dwob/samyutta_nikaya_1_156.mp3

Were there a mountain all made of gold,

doubled that would not be enough

to satisfy a single person:

know this and live accordingly.

Saṃyutta NikÄya 1.156
