As a water bead on a lotus leaf ~ Buddha

As a water bead on a lotus leaf ~ Buddha was last modified: November 12th, 2018 by dorjeduck

As a water bead on a lotus leaf,
as water on a red lily,
does not adhere,

so the sage
does not adhere
to the seen, the heard, or the sensed.


Buddha

Jara Sutta of the Sutta Nipata

translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
