Thag 2.27 — Nandaka

translated from the Pāli by Thanissaro Bhikkhu

Just as a fine thoroughbred steed stumbling, regains its stance, feeling all the more urgency, & draws its burden undaunted. In the same way, remember me: consummate in vision, a disciple of the Rightly Self-awakened One, the Awakened One's thoroughbred child, his son.
