Thanissaro Bhikkhu

2005-09-14 Even As A Mother 43:16
Ayya Medhanandi
Can we fearlessly accept all that life gives with a wise and compassionate heart? We see how the sun shines unilaterally on all beings giving life and nourishment.

Even as a mother, may we emulate the Buddha's compassion that flows without bias in all directions across millenia.
