In this reading from the suttas, the monk Rahula receives advice from the Buddha. This sutta is the origin of meditation on the elements - earth, water, fire, air, and space - which encourages us to practice equanimity in the face of difficulty. The sutta also encourages all of us to develop mindfulness of loving-kindness, compassion, altruistic joy, before ending with a summary of the steps of meditation on full awareness of breathing.
