A new translation of one of the early #Buddhist #PaliTexts, the Rohitassa Sutta, AN 4.45
A strange text in which a deity asks about travelling to "the end of the world". The Buddha says that's impossible, and yet without reaching it, there is no ending to suffering.

#PaliTexts From SN 35.95 the Māluṅkya-putta Sutta. It goes on to describe habits of noticing pleasant sounds, tastes, smells, touches and thoughts. Then it describes the process of noticing WITH mindfulness, so diminishing distress and drawing near to well-being [or, nirvana].
