Kumbha Sutta

1. Kumbha Sutta.– At Sāvatthi. Just, monks, as a pot without a stand is easily knocked over, while one with a stand is not, a mind without a stand is easily knocked over, while one with a stand is not. What is the stand for the mind? It is this Noble Eightfold Path: right-view … right concentration. S.v.20.

2. Kumbha Sutta.– A pot, if overset, empties out its water and cannot take it in again. A monk, cultivating the Eightfold Path, empties out suffering and cannot take it in again. S.v.48.
