AUG 2.3

The Buddha then went and meditated at the foot of a mucalinda tree. It began to rain 

heavily and a huge king cobra came out and coiled his body seven times around the Buddha 

to keep him warm and placed his hood over the Buddha’s head to protect him from the 

rain. After seven days the rain stopped and the snake changed into a young man who paid 

his respects to the Buddha. The Buddha then said:














"Happy are they who are contented. Happiness is for those who hear and know the truth. 








Happy are they who have good will in this world towards all sentient beings. Happy are they 




who have no attachments and have passed beyond sense-desires. The disappearance of the 

word "I AM " is indeed the highest happiness."
