Siddhārtha Gautama ~ Friday, April 22, 2022

The Tathāgata speaks:

"Now this, bhikkhus, for the spiritually ennobled ones, is the true reality which is pain: birth is painful, aging is painful, illness is painful, death is painful; sorrow, lamentation, physical pain, unhappiness and distress are painful; union with what is disliked is painful; separation from what is liked is painful; not to get what one wants is painful; in brief, the five bundles of grasping-fuel are painful."

– Siddhārtha Gautama (Gautama Buddha)
