Becoming Buddha Cross River Meditation Center Podcast
Religion & Spirituality:Buddhism
This Dhamma Talk is from the week of June 17, 2019, and will be from the Dhammapada. The Nagavagga is the twenty-third chapter of the Dhammapada. The Buddha uses the metaphor of a well-trained elephant to describe the wisdom of developing wise restraint if one is to develop the Eightfold Path and a calm and well-concentrated mind.
“In the past, my mind wandered mindlessly where it wished, always seeking satisfaction. Now I have thoroughly tamed my mind as trainer controls an elephant in rut...” (Dhammapada 23)
