– So It Was Said 63

The Book of the Threes Chapter Two Periods

This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.

“Mendicants, there are these three periods. What three? Past, future, and present. These are the three periods.”

The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:

“Sentient beings who perceive the communicable,become established in the communicable.Not understanding the communicable,they fall under the yoke of Death.But having fully understood the communicable,they don’t conceive a communicator,as they’ve touched liberation with their mind,the supreme state of peace.Accomplished in the communicable,peaceful, in love with the state of peace; making use after reflection, firm in principle,a knowledge master cannot be reckoned.”

This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.
