About The Simile of the Viper Sutta

The Simile of the Viper Sutta - Buddhism - translated by Suddhāso Bhikkhu

One of the monks denies that prohibited conduct is really a problem. The monks and then the Buddha subject him to an impressive dressing down. The Buddha compares someone who understands only the letter of the teachings to someone who grabs a snake by the tail, and also invokes the famous simile of the raft.
