The final words of His Holiness Samdech Maha Ghosananda
Body Sick, Mind Well.
The nature of the human body is to grow old and decline. Yet even as the body weakens or is harmed by an opponent, the mind can remain clear. Even in the midst of pain, the mind can be at peace.
The body is a vehicle, like a car, a plane, or a bicycle. We use the body, but we need not allow it to use us. If we can control the mind, then even when we are faced with physical suffering, it can remain free and clear.
The Buddha said, “Care for your health. It is the foundation of all progress. “When we feel physical pain, we Cambodians like to say, “The body may be sick, but the mind is avery well.
