English · Bhikkhu Sujato

Shielding the Mind

“Whatever you’ve shielded the mind from can’t cause you suffering. So you should shield the mind from everything, then you’re freed from all suffering.”

Pāli · Sutta Piṭaka (Pāli, Mahāsaṅgīti)

“Na sabbato mano nivāraye, Na mano saṁyatattamāgataṁ; Yato yato ca pāpakaṁ, Tato tato mano nivāraye”ti.

English · Bhikkhu Sujato

“You need not shield the mind from everything, nor has the mind gained self-control. The mind need only be shielded from where the bad things come.”
