The Himalaya

Translator: Bhikkhu Sujato

“Mendicants, a mendicant who has six qualities could shatter Himalaya, the king of mountains, let alone this wretched ignorance!

What six?

It’s when a mendicant is skilled in entering immersion, skilled in remaining in immersion, skilled in emerging from immersion, skilled in positivity for immersion, skilled in the territory of immersion, and skilled in projecting the mind purified by immersion.

A mendicant who possesses these six qualities could shatter Himalaya, the king of mountains, let alone this wretched ignorance!”
