Dear Ones : 212-216

From what’s dear is born grief,
from what’s dear is born fear.
For one freed from what’s dear
there’s no grief
–so how fear?
From what’s loved is born grief,
from what’s loved is born fear.
For one freed from what’s loved
there’s no grief
–so how fear?
From delight is born grief,
from delight is born fear.
For one freed from delight
there’s no grief
–so how fear?
From sensuality is born grief,
from sensuality is born fear.
For one freed from sensuality
there’s no grief
–so how fear?
From craving is born grief,
from craving is born fear.
For one freed from craving
there’s no grief
–so how fear?

Furthermore, I have explained to my disciples a practice that they use to develop the ten universal dimensions of meditation.

Someone perceives the meditation on universal (= kasina) earth above, below, across, undivided and limitless.

They perceive the meditation on universal water … the meditation on universal fire … the meditation on universal air … the meditation on universal blue … the meditation on universal yellow … the meditation on universal red … the meditation on universal white … the meditation on universal space … the meditation on universal consciousness above, below, across, undivided and limitless.
And many of my disciples meditate on that having attained perfection and consummation of insight.

MN 77 : Mahāsakuludāyisutta

Dear Ones : 217

One consummate in virtue & vision, judicious,
speaking the truth,
doing his own task:
the world holds him dear.

“Guttā, why did you go forth?
You have left behind child, wealth, and all that is dear.
Practice in this way,
do not be controlled by the mind.

Sentient beings are misguided by the mind,
enjoying the realm of Māra.
Fools wander along in saṁsāra,
running through countless births.

Interest in sensual pleasures, ill will,
attachment to self-identity,
clinging to rites and rituals,
and the fifth is doubt—

once you abandon these fetters,
Bhikkhunī,
you will not return
to the near shore again.

Once you forsake passion, conceit, ignorance,
and restlessness,
having cut off the fetters,
you will bring suffering to an end.

Once you have discarded birth in saṁsāra,
having fully understood how existence is renewed,
seeing the Dhamma, without cravings,
you will walk in peace.”

Thig 6.7 Guttātherīgāthā: Verses of the Elder Guttā

Dear Ones : 218

If you’ve given birth to a wish
for what can’t be expressed,
are suffused with heart,
your mind not enmeshed
in sensual passions:
you’re said to be
in the up-flowing stream.

Being devoted to the recollection on peace allows one to sleep happily and wake happily, have peaceful faculties, a peaceful mind, self-respect and fear of blame, to be confident, resolved to attain the highest state, and to be respected and revered by ones fellows in the holy life. And even if one attains no higher, one will have a happy rebirth.

Visuddhimagga 294

Dear Ones : 219-220

A man long absent
comes home safe from afar.
His kin, his friends, his companions,
delight in his return.
In just the same way,
when you’ve done good
& gone from this world
to the world beyond,
your good deeds receive you–
as kin, someone dear
come home.

“Pañcime, bhikkhave, ānisaṃsā sappurisaṃ sevato, sappurisasamāsevanāya, sappurisūpadāsanāya. Katame pañca? Saddho hoti, sīlavā hoti, bahussuto hoti, cāgī hoti, paññavā hoti. Ime kho, bhikkhave, pañcānisaṃsā sappurisaṃ sevato, sappurisasamāsevanāya, sappurisūpadāsanāya.”

"Monks, there are these five benefits of associating with a good person, keeping their company, and attending on them. What five? One becomes faithful, virtuous, learned, generous, and wise. These, monks, are the five benefits of associating with a good person."

Dhammapada XVII : Anger

Anger : 221
Abandon anger,
be done with conceit,
get beyond every fetter.
When for name & form
you have no attachment
–have nothing at all–
no sufferings, no stresses, invade.

Anger : 222

When anger arises,
whoever keeps firm control
as if with a racing chariot:
him
I call a master charioteer.
Anyone else,
a rein-holder–
that’s all.

Conquer anger with lack of anger;

By telling the truth;
by not growing angry;
by giving, when asked,
no matter how little you have:
by these three things
you enter the presence of devas.

Anger : 227-228

This has come down from old, Atula,
& not just from today:
they find fault with one
who sits silent,
they find fault with one
who speaks a great deal,
they find fault with one
who measures his words.

There’s no one unfaulted in the world.
There never was,
will be,
nor at present is found
anyone entirely faulted
or entirely praised.
