This is the twenty-first session of the Buddhist path of practice leading from the mundane to the transcendental based on the 38 Blessings of the Mangala Sutta. This twentieth blessing concerns the Buddhist approach to definitively quitting alcohol, non-medicinal drugs, and tobacco, as the groundwork for training the mind toward more esoteric states.
