Thus I have heard:
One time, the Budha was staying at Anaathapindidas Ashrama in Jetavana of Shraavastii.
At that time, the Bhagavaan addressed the bhikshus: “Among all things, I have never seen anything so difficult to be tamed, so hard to train, and bringing such suffering as the mind.
O bhikshus! This mind is hard to subdue, difficult to train, and brings much suffering.
Therefore, O bhikshus! You should carefully discern the mind, contemplate the mind, and cultivate wholesome roots. Thus, O bhikshus, should you train.”
When the bhikshus heard what the Budha said, they followed it with joy.
