191 The Buddha Knows Three Important Things

Monks in the Morning from Colombo Dhamma Friends

Have you heard about the night of the Supreme Buddha’s enlightenment? You probably remember that it happened on a Vesak full moon. And that he sat next to the river Neranjara. You may even remember that Māra tried to stop him from attaining enlightenment. But can you remember the three special things that he gained in his mind that night? We’ll learn about those three things in the sermon today. We’ll even learn the Pali words for these three things. If you can’t quite catch them in the sermon, click on the shownotes link to see them written out clearly.
