TOKOH & TEMPAT

Sinopsis singkat

Dalam khotbah ini, Sang Buddha membahas empat jenis individu berdasarkan cara mereka merenungkan tujuan spiritual setelah mencapai kebebasan batin yang damai. Dua jenis pertama merenungkan lenyapnya identitas diri (sakkāya), dan dua jenis berikutnya merenungkan penghancuran ketidaktahuan (avijjā). Melalui perumpamaan tangan yang berlumuran getah versus tangan bersih, serta kolam yang tergenang, Sang Buddha menjelaskan mengapa sebagian individu dapat merealisasi tujuan tersebut dan sebagian lainnya tidak, tergantung pada kesiapan batin mereka.
