SN 22.1 Nakulapitu Sutta: Nakula’s Father
3 pages
It was with the ambrosia of such a Dhamma talk, venerable sir, that the Blessed One anointed me.
The householder Nakulapitā asks the Buddha for help in coping with old age. The Buddha says to reflect: “Even though I am afflicted in body, my mind will be unafflicted.” Later Sāriputta explains this unattachment to the five aggregates.
