Anuruddha and Great Thoughts

Anuruddha and the Great Thoughts - Buddhism - translated by Bhikkhu Sujato

Venerable Anuruddha reflects that the teachings is for someone who is of few wishes, content, secluded, energetic, mindful, peaceful, and wise. To these seven thoughts, the Buddha adds an eighth: the teaching is for those who delight in non-proliferation. Practicing in line with these eight thoughts of a great man, Venerable Anuruddha achieves perfection.
