The Teaching of All Buddhas: Don't Do Evil, Accomplish Goodness & Purify Your Mind | Ovadapatimokkha

The Teaching of All Buddhas: Don't Do Evil, Accomplish Goodness & Purify Your Mind | Ovadapatimokkha

Abstain from any evil deed

accomplish what is good and true,

And fully purify your mind -

That is what all the Buddhas teach.


Enduring patience is the best

of all ascetic practices;

The best of everything at all

is called Nibbāna by the sage.


If you cause harm to anyone

you can't be called a genuine monk!

Refrain from harming and abuse,

and strictly keep the Buddha's rules;


Be moderate when taking food,

and dwell alone in solitude

devoted to the Higher Mind -

That is what all the Buddhas teach.


The Buddha recited this concise summary of the whole practice leading to Nibbāna on the full moon of Magha, at the 'Sāvaka-sannipāta', the spontaneous gathering of 1,250 Arahant Bhikkhus, all of them ordained by the Buddha himself.

Ajahn Dhammasiha introduces us to the location of the event, the Bamboo Grove Monastery ('Veḷuvana') at Rājagaha, and goes through the Ovādapātimokkha line by line

(By the way, it's actually 14 lines of verse in the Pāli. When Ajahn Dhammasiha talks about 16 lines, he was thinking about the English translation, which has two lines more. It can be difficult to express meaning in English as succinct as in Pali, often one requires more words in modern languages to get the meaning accross)
