  • Gotamaka-cetiya Sutta (AN 3.123) — At Gotamaka Shrine . What more do you want from the Buddha's teachings?
  • Lekha Sutta (AN 3.130) — Inscriptions . How tightly do you hold on to anger? Do you let it get carved deeply into your psyche, like an inscription in solid rock?
  • Yoga Sutta (AN 4.10) — Yokes . In many discourses, the Buddha speaks of "the unexcelled rest from the yoke." In this discourse he describes what yokes he is referring to, and how that rest comes about.
  • Yuganaddha Sutta (AN 4.170) — In Tandem . The Buddha describes the paths to arahantship by which tranquillity and insight work hand-in-hand.
