Description

The Buddha and Ananda once tended a sick monk, neglected by his companions because of his 'uselessness'. Sangharakshita shows that people cannot be treated as 'things' in the spiritual community.

Excerpted from the talk entitled A Case of Dysentry as part of the series Incidents from the Pali Canon, 1982.
