Reminders under the Sala Trees
The Sutra of the Buddha’s Bequeathed Teachings was
originally called “Teachings and Precepts Given by the Buddha
as He Was About to Enter Parinirvana.” Its teachings form a
foundation for all Buddhist practitioners, and can lead to the
attainment of the ultimate goal of Buddhahood.
In this sutra, the Buddha reminded his disciples one final time
how to take care of their own hearts and how to maintain their
spiritual practice after he was gone; he again reminded his
disciples to have correct thoughts, to diligently practice precepts,
Samadhi, and wisdom, and to eliminate greed, anger and
ignorance.
