Hi, my information from here https://www.accesstoinsight.org/lib/aut ... html#part3Pulsar wrote: ↑Sun May 31, 2020 12:55 pm Confusedlayman wroteIt is pretty much clear from your comments, that you read the suttas. Once you wrote about "100 beatings in the morning, 100 beatings midday and 100 beatings in the night". Son's flesh is one sutta where it appears, If you have mastered that, that is all you need to master. Entire doctrine, in that very short sutta. But of course this depends on the beholder.Thanks pulsar. Yes take ur time. and also I do read suttas as its my inspiration.
A brief question, your comment regarding Anathapindika's child, the youngest,
that she was envious of her happily married two older sisters, did you read that in a sutta or commentary?
I have read in the Pali canon that just before her death she called her Dad "My little brother"
and her Dad thought she was delirious before death. Anathapindika reported this to Buddha, and Buddha corrected him, it was not because she was delirious but it was because she was more advanced than her Dad spiritually. She died young, she might have been sickly, that might have been the reason she did not marry?
Envy or jealousy can enter the non-Arahant mind briefly. Both her married sisters were apparently Sotapannas, I am not sure whether that info is in the suttas or a commentary.
Have a beautiful Sunday dear Confusedlayman!
PS I hope you continue to inspire us with your
sutta knowledge.
your information is not there in what i read. I mean she calling her dad as brother scene is missed in the above link. can u post link of palicanon if available of that exact story?
