Daily Words of the Buddha for February 08, 2014



Saddhā tarati oghaṃ,
appamādena aṇṇavaṃ.
Vīriyena dukkhamacceti.
Paññāya parisujjhati.

Through conviction one crosses over the flood.
Through heedfulness, the sea.
Through persistence one overcomes suffering & stress.
Through discernment a person is purified.


Sutta Nipāta 1.186

Translated from the Pali by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
