    who reach the Far Shore.
    These others
    simply scurry along
    this shore.

    But those who practice Dhamma
    in line with the well-taught Dhamma,
    will cross over the realm of Death
    so hard to transcend.
    ~Dhammapada 85-6

  4. One who lives restrained in the senses
    And focused on unpleasant things,
    Who is moderate in food,
    Who has faith and diligence:
    Mara cannot overcome him,
    Just as wind cannot overcome a rocky mountain.
    ~Dhammapada 8

  8. A good read, but might leave the impression that only #Theravada #Buddhism is susceptible to ethnic nationalism. The #Mahayana Buddhist regime in #Bhutan is equally genocidal, and their decades-long campaign against the #Lhotshampa continues almost unnoticed. #Genocide #EthnicCleansing #Politics #AsiaPolitics theguardian.com/news/2025/nov/
