– So It Was Said 77

The Book of the Threes Chapter Three Fragile

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

“This body is fragile, mendicants, consciousness is liable to fade away, and all attachments are impermanent, suffering, and perishable.”

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

“Knowing that the body is fragile,that consciousness is faded,and seeing the danger in attachments,they go beyond birth and death.Having attained ultimate peace,evolved, they await their time.”

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