Dhammapada Verse 323 Hatthacariyapubbaka Bhikkhu Vatthu-The Right Vehicle To Nibbana

SF Bay Area Aquariums

Verse 323. The Right Vehicle To Nibbana

Surely not on mounts like these
one goes the Unfrequented Way
as one by self well-tamed
is tamed and by the taming goes.

Explanation: Indeed, not be any means of transport can one
go to the place one has never been before, but by thoroughly taming
oneself, the tamed one can get to that place - Nibbana.

1. The tamed one: One, who having first controlled the senses, has later
developed Magga Insight. (The Commentary)

The Story of the Bhikkhu Who Had Been a Trainer of Elephants

While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (323) of
this book, with reference to a bhikkhu who had previously been an elephant
trainer.

On one occasion, some bhikkhus saw an elephant trainer and his elephant on
the bank of the river Aciravati. As the trainer was finding it difficult to
control the elephant, one of the bhikkhus, who was an ex-elephant trainer, told
the other bhikkhus how it could be easily handled. The elephant trainer hearing
him did as told by the bhikkhu, and the elephant was quickly subdued. Back at
the monastery, the bhikkhus related the incident to the Buddha. The Buddha
called the ex-elephant trainer bhikkhu to him and said, “O vain bhikkhu,
who is yet far away from Magga and Phala ! You do not gain anything by taming
elephants. There is no one who can get to a place where one has never been
before (i.e.. Nibbana) by taming elephants; only one who has tamed himself can
get there.”

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 323: Indeed, not by any means of transport (such
as elephants and horses) can one go to the place one has never been
before (i.e., Nibbana); but by thoroughly taming oneself, the tamed
one can get to that place (i.e., Nibbana).

BSP warns of another food grains scam in UP

Lucknow: Warning the Uttar
Pradesh government of another food grains scam, the BSP on Thursday
claimed massive irregularities have come to light in wheat purchases in
five districts of the state.

“There is every possibility of another food grains scam like the one in
2003-2004 and 2005-2006 worth Rs 50,000 crores which is being
investigated by the CBI with reports of the wheat purchased till June
30, 2012 in Gorakhpur, Faizabad, Sitapur, Allahabad and Shahjahanpur not
reaching the godowns”, leader of opposition in the Assembly Swami
Prasad Maurya said.

The BSP leader said that despite Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav himself
paying a surprise visit to a purchase centre, officials and contractors
were not paying heed to it and the food grains meant for the poor were
being used to earn huge sums for some vested interests.

The BSP leader was also critical of minister of food and civil supplies
saying that he had also been the minister last time when the scam took
place.

“Giving him the same department is like giving him green signal to
indulge in the same”, Maurya said asking the chief minister to take
stern action and check the malpractice immediately in the interest of
the poor.

To a question on the twin constituencies of Congress president Sonia
Gandhi and general secretary Rahul Gandhi getting uninterrupted power
supply, he said supply to other areas should also be ensured as was
being done in the BSP regime.
