This episode is a narration of the 46th Sutta of the Middle Discourses of the Buddha, The Mahadhammasamādāna Sutta, which translates as “The Great Discourse on Taking Up of Practices”. In this sutta the Buddha explains that, whilst we all want to be happy, we often find the opposite happens. The Buddha explains why.

This translation of the Mahadhammasamādāna Sutta is by Bhikkhu Sujato and was sourced from Sutta Central.
