The Buddha Said...

[bhante dhamma]

hi sometimes I read or hear some dhamma and sometimes.i'm either to lazy to find an exact location in the canon, or.maybe others can use this thread to veify what they hear/see on sosial media, like yesterdyay I watched a dhamma talk on the net in which it was said ...'the buddha.said anapanasati.is the crown jewel of mediattion,' which made.me.think if the Buddha had actually verbatim said that.

so I actually had a question....does.any one have a sutta.name.number for the pli words 'kalyanakari ca kalyanam papakari c papakam' ots.in the samyutta somwehere

Samyutta Nikaya 10

Yadisam vapate bijam Tadisam labhate phalam
Kalyanakari kalyanam Papakari ca papakam

Which translates as:

As the seed, so the fruit.
Whoever does good, receives good,
Whoever does bad, receives bad.

No, I don't have the Tipitaka memorized (I wish); I just used google.

samyutta 10..? mist be p.t.s numbering, still cant find the name.of the samyutta or sutta, got a.other one...

sutta name for the quote The Buddha Said his teaching is 'not a close fisted doctrine'

[pilgrim]

sutta name for the quote The Buddha Said his teaching is 'not a close fisted doctrine'

I have set forth the Dhamma without making any distinction of esoteric and exoteric doctrine; there is nothing, Ananda, with regard to the teachings that the Tathagata holds to the last with the closed fist of a teacher who keeps some things back.

Yes, I think I got the number wrong; maybe it is vol.1 sutta 10? Got it from here:

See Sutta 10; Isayosamuddaka Sutta

Does anyone have a canonical reference for the Ovada Patimokkha...?

[Samana Johann 1]

Does anyone have a canonical reference for the Ovada Patimokkha...?

Ven. Sir, this might be of help.



As far my person is aware, it mostly a commentary gift around it.

Magha Puja

This day, sometimes called "Sangha Day," commemorates the spontaneous assembly of 1,250 arahants in the Buddha's presence. One thousand of the gathered monks had previously achieved Awakening upon hearing the Buddha's delivery of the Fire Sermon; the remaining 250 were followers of the elder monks Ven. Moggallana and Ven. Sariputta. To mark this auspicious gathering, the Buddha delivered the Ovada-Patimokkha Gatha , a summary of the main points of the Dhamma, which the Buddha gave to the assembly before sending them out to proclaim the doctrine. [Suggested reading: "Dhamma for Everyone " by Ajaan Lee.]

The fire sermon is found in the Mahavagga (vinaya) and in the suttas.

May Bhante always feel given to raise a question or point on a need without timely limit.

Dhammapada verses 183 through 185.

183. To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.

184. Enduring patience is the highest austerity. "Nibbana is supreme," say the Buddhas. He is not a true monk who harms another, nor a true renunciate who oppresses others.

185. Not despising, not harming, restraint according to the code of monastic discipline, moderation in food, dwelling in solitude, devotion to meditation — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.

[Samana Johann 1]

Sadhu, Nyom Bodom.

It's how ever interesting that the dph-commentary seems to point on another occasion:
The Story of the Question Raised by Thera Ananda

May it be understood as given as well, for proper use, Bhante.

...'the buddha.said anapanasati.is the crown jewel of mediattion,' which made.me.think if the Buddha had actually verbatim said that.
