Hello friends of the Dhamma
Please allow me to share some Dhamma with you

may you and all our relatives be well and secure
may you and all our relatives be happy
may you and all our relatives receive the highest blessings
may you and all our relatives not kill
may you and all our relatives not conquer
may you and all our relatives not cause others to conquer

The Discourse on the Orderliness of the Dhamma

Context of this sutta


----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
I have heard that at one time the Blessed One was staying in Savatthi at
Jeta's Grove, Anathapindika's park.There he addressed the monks, saying,
"Monks."
"Yes, lord," the monks responded to him.

The Blessed One said, "Whether or not there is the arising of Tathagatas,
this property stands -- this steadfastness of the Dhamma, this orderliness
of the Dhamma: All processes are inconstant.

"The Tathagata directly awakens to that, breaks through to that. Directly
awakening & breaking through to that, he declares it, teaches it, describes
it, sets it forth. He reveals it, explains it, & makes it plain: All
processes are inconstant.

"Whether or not there is the arising of Tathagatas, this property stands --
this steadfastness of the Dhamma, this orderliness of the Dhamma: All
processes are stressful.

"The Tathagata directly awakens to that, breaks through to that. Directly
awakening & breaking through to that, he declares it, teaches it, describes
it, sets it forth. He reveals it, explains it, & makes it plain: All
processes are stressful.

"Whether or not there is the arising of Tathagatas, this property stands --
this steadfastness of the Dhamma, this orderliness of the Dhamma: All
phenomena are not-self.

"The Tathagata directly awakens to that, breaks through to that. Directly
awakening & breaking through to that, he declares it, teaches it, describes
it, sets it forth. He reveals it, explains it, & makes it plain: All
phenomena are not-self."

That is what the Blessed One said. Gratified, the monks delighted at his
words.

gone beyond death. I grow different, separate from all that is dear and
appealing to me. I am the owner of my actions, heir to my actions, related
through my actions, born of my actions, related through my actions, I have
my actions as my arbitor. Whatever I do, for good or for evil to that will I
fall heir.
