Nonanger
from Dhamma Audio Hosted by Sugata Vinayo
Akkodhasutta Translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi THUS HAVE I HEARD. On one occasion the Blessed One was dwelling at Savatthī in Jeta’s Grove, Anathapiṇḍika’s Park. There the Blessed One said this: “Bhikkhus, once in the past Sakka, lord of the devas, instructing the Tavatiṁsa devas in the Sudhamma assembly hall, on that occasion recited this verse: “‘Do not let anger overpower you; Do not become angry at those who are angry. Nonanger and harmlessness always dwell Within the hearts of the noble ones. Like a mountain avalanche Anger crushes evil people.’”
