For One Dependent, there is Wavering... | SUTTA EXPLORATION Ud 8.4 | Ajahn Dhammasiha

Dhammagiri Buddhist Podcasts - A podcast by Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage

"For one dependent, there is wavering. Without dependence, there's no wavering. Without wavering, there's tranquility. With tranquility, there's no inclination. Without inclination, there's no coming and going. Without coming and going, there's no passing away and rearising. Without passing away and rearising, there's no here or there or anywhere in between. This, just this, is the end of suffering." Udāna 9.4 "Catuttha-nibbāna-paṭisaṃyutta-sutta" Inspired Exclamations 9.4 "4th Sutta re Nibbāna" Ajahn Dhammasiha offeres some reflections on this profound sutta, an inspired exclamation the Buddha uttered in verse when he was teaching Dhamma related to Nibbāna, and the monks where all listening fully attentive. Ajahn Ṭhānissaro's (Ajaan Geoff's) translation of the Udāna is available for free download as epub, pdf and other formats here. ⁠⁠⁠⁠Dhammagiri Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Spotify Playlists⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dhammagiri Youtube Channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pics⁠ #Udana #InspiredUtterance #exclamations #SuttaStudy #Nibbana #Nirvana .
