In a sutta from the Aṅguttara Nikāya the Buddha describes four facts one can observe about a person, which Ajahn Karuṇadhammo reflects can be qualities one can use in looking for a good teacher. But what to do when there is no external teacher present? The Buddha taught that we carry six excellent teachers within us at all times. This talk was offered on January 2, 2016 at Abhayagiri Buddhist Monastery.
