The Parable Of The Two Arrows

This is a short talk on a wondeful ancient parable called the parable of the two arrows. It illustrates how pain is natural and at times inevitable, but suffering is something we do ourselves. Suryacitta also shows how to end the self inflicted suffering.

Oh my goodness, my new intention set for the day “I will put down my second dagger.” You’ve really helped put things in perspective. I love this, thank you so much! ✨💚

Very interesting, I will start noticing that second dagger, thank you 💜

I love how you explain things. You just have a way of making it easy and simple. this practice takes a lot of restraint and discipline, but I like how you put it… identify the thinking versus identify with the thinking.

I agree completely with the wisdom contained in this poem. Thank you for sharing it.

You did a great job explaining this parable thank you
