The Just ⧸ Verse 259
One is not considered a Holder of the Dhamma
just because one can recite it often.
One who hears even a little (of the Dhamma),
yet sees the Dhamma through the body,
this one is indeed a Holder of the Dhamma
this one who is not negligent of the truth.
just because one can recite it often.
One who hears even a little (of the Dhamma),
yet sees the Dhamma through the body,
this one is indeed a Holder of the Dhamma
