Welcome to the Charnel Ground

It Comes Down to Character • Let an observant person come—one who is not fraudulent, not deceitful, one of an honest nature. I instruct him. I teach him the Dhamma. Practicing as instructed, he in no long time knows for himself, sees for himself: “So this is how there is the right liberation from bondage, that is, the bondage of ignorance.”
