he is indeed the highest person.

Aware that eyes are burning,
Hold is broken -- free.

For the benefit, welfare, and happiness of mother and father; children and partners; bondservants, workers, and staff; friends and colleagues; and ascetics and brahmins.
It’s like a great rain cloud, which nourishes all the crops for the benefit, welfare, and happiness of the people.

A man is not versed in #Dhamma
because he speaks much.
He who, after hearing a little Dhamma,
realizes its truth directly
and is not heedless of it,
is truly versed in the Dhamma.

But those who value the true teaching, who have lived it, and are living it now, these do grow in the teaching that was taught by the perfected Buddha.

So far, got a script to parse all available pairs of pali-english sentences, and train a (rudimentary) tokenizer on Pali using BPE.
Way to go before I can train a translation #MachineLearning model, but it feels doable before new years eve. Can I have a gpu for Christmas?

the four noble truths,

An individual here with
A wrongly directed mind
Who utters wrong speech
And performs wrong deeds,
One of little learning,
Who does demerit in this short life—
Upon the perishing of the body
That foolish one is reborn in hell.

In the Pacalāyamāna #Sutta, Venerable Mahāmoggallāna is nodding off while meditating. The #Buddha sees him struggling and teaches him seven ways to dispel sleepiness in #meditation.
