Sutta Nipata I, 10
Mar 9th
Through conviction one crosses over the flood.
Through heedfulness, the sea.
Through persistence one overcomes suffering & stress.
Through discernment a person is purified.
Sutta Nipata II, 10

Rouse yourself! Sit up!
Resolutely train yourself to attain peace.
Do not let the king of death, seeing you are careless,
lead you astray and dominate you.
Sutta Nipata 4.812
Jul 10th
At death a person abandons
what he construes as mine.
Realizing this, the wise
shouldn’t incline
to be devoted to mine.
Sutta Nipata I, 8

As a mother would risk her life
to protect her child, her only child,
even so should one cultivate a limitless heart
with regard to all beings
