Phra Sotapan (Stream enterers)
Do not believe in superstitions
They are not concerned about auspicious days
Whenever the mind is good
That is a good time
Good and evil do not
Depend on the heavens or earth
It depends on our heart and our actions
Do not push the blame to someone else
If good and evil were to
Depend on the skies or weather
Then years with good weather and rains
Monks will all transform into Phra Arahants
But if the skies and rains are not good
Arahants and Sotapans all
Revert back to ordinary people
Or millionaires all become beggars
Don’t be superstitious about auspicious timings
When one’s mind is low, one’s meditation is low
When one’s mind is high, then it’ll be high
It depends on one’s citta.
