#PaliTexts
A new translation of one of the early #Buddhist #PaliTexts, the Rohitassa Sutta, AN 4.45
A strange text in which a deity asks about travelling to "the end of the world". The Buddha says that's impossible, and yet without reaching it, there is no ending to suffering.

If you're interested in the early #Buddhist #PaliTexts, I've started posting translations of excerpts to take you straight to places most helpful to meditators. They're for a book I'm planning, and it will take time to build them up. Find what is already done here:

Seeing visible forms without mindfulness, one takes note of what is pleasant. Knowing an impassioned mind, one relishes them. Many feelings multiply, born of visible forms. So longing and dislike, injure the mind. Accumulating distress like this, one is said to be far from well-being [or, nirvana].
#PaliTexts From SN 35.95 the Māluṅkya-putta Sutta. It goes on to describe habits of noticing pleasant sounds, tastes, smells, touches and thoughts. Then it describes the process of noticing WITH mindfulness, so diminishing distress and drawing near to well-being [or, nirvana].
