On Good Friends


Custom Search


Ananda, one of Shakyamuni Buddha's closest disciples, once asked him:
"It seems to me that by having good friends and advancing together with them, one has already halfway attained the Buddha way. Is this way of thinking correct?"
Shakyamuni replied: "Ananda, this way of thinking is not correct. Having good friends and advancing together with them is not half the Buddhist way but all the Buddhist way."
