Dhammapada Verse 1: Suffering is Mind-made

from Dhammapada Part I Hosted by Yuttadhammo Bhikkhu

Verse 1 Mind precedes all mental states. Mind is their chief; they are all mind-wrought. If with an impure mind a person speaks or acts suffering follows him like the wheel that follows the foot of the ox.
