Re: Sawat di ka
Greetings and welcome to Dhamma Wheel.
I'm hoping to get to Thailand and go north with the family at some stage over the next year or two. I've heard it's really lovely up north (not grim at all!)
Metta,
Retro.

in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

Re: Sawat di ka
Hi
Blog, Suttas, Aj Chah, Facebook.
He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them.
But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion …
...
He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them … he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form.

But whoever walking, standing, sitting, or lying down overcomes thought, delighting in the stilling of thought: he's capable, a monk like this, of touching superlative self-awakening. § 110. {Iti 4.11; Iti 115}
