EP 7 - Cooling the Fire of Lust

Harnessing the Strength and Serenity of a Rhino through the teachings of Buddha.

"Avoid the evil companion
disregarding the goal,
intent on the out-of-tune way.
Don't take as a friend
someone heedless &amp; hankering.
wander alone like a rhinoceros.

Consort with one who is learned,
who maintains the Dhamma,
a great &amp; quick-witted friend.
Knowing the meanings,
subdue your perplexity,
[then] wander alone like a rhinoceros."

- Buddha, Khaggavisana Sutta
