Phra Ajahn Dune Atulo - On The Four Noble Truths

A senior monk of the meditation tradition came to pay his respects to Luang Pu on the first day of the Rains Retreat in 1956. After giving him instruction and a number of teachings on profound matters, Luang Pu summarized the four noble truths as follows:

"The mind sent outside is the origination of suffering."

"The result of the mind sent outside is suffering."

"The mind seeing the mind is the path."

"The result of the mind seeing the mind is the cessation of suffering.”
( "Gifts he left behind" by Phra Bodhinandamuni )
