The Buddha’s Words of Wisdom
One who is virtuous, possessed of virtue, is like an antidote for destroying the poison of the defilements in beings;
- He is like a healing balm for allaying the sickness of defilements in beings;
- He is like precious gems for giving beings all they wish;
- He is like a ship for beings to go beyond the four floods;
- He is like a caravan leader for taking beings across the desert of births;
- He is like the wind for extinguishing the three fierce fires in beings;
- He is like a great rain cloud for filling beings with good thoughts;
- He is like a teacher for making beings train themselves in what is skilled;
- He is like a good guide for pointing out to beings the path to security.
