The Teacher


The Buddha is awakened, he teaches the Dharma for awakening.

The Buddha is tamed, he teaches the Dharma for taming.

The Buddha is calm, he teaches the Dharma for calming.

The Buddha has crossed over, he teaches the Dharma for crossing over.

The Buddha has realized Nirvana, he teaches the Dharma for the realization of Nirvana.

---Majjhima Nikaya (paraphrased)---
