Food for Thought #68

~ By Buddhadāsa Bhikkhu ~

Those who have never tasted sweetness should not contend that it does not exist in this world. They should look for some sugar to taste in order to find out for themselves what sweetness is all about. Similarly, those who have yet to attain nibbana should not deny its existence. They should strive to taste it for themselves.
