The Dharma of Veneration

Thus I have heard: One time, the Budha was staying at

Anaathapindidas Ashrama in Jetavana of Shraavastii.

At that time, the Bhagavaan said to the bhikshus:

“There are these two qualities that one should contemplate inwardly with diligence and single-minded focus, as a way of venerating the Dharma Jewel and the sacred shrine of the Tathaagata.

What are these two qualities?

They are strength and fearlessness.

Thus, bhikshus, with these two qualities, by contemplating inwardly with diligence and single-minded focus, one should venerate the Dharma Jewel and the sacred shrine of the Tathaagata.


Bhikshus, you should train yourselves in this way.”


When the bhikshus heard what the Budha said, they followed it with joy.
