210. If one were to give the gift of a hundred coins in the morning, again at noon and once again at night, or instead, if one were to develop the mind of love in the morning, again at noon and once again at night, even for as long as it takes to pull a cow’s udder, this would be by far the more beneficial of the two. Therefore, you should train yourself thinking: ‘We will develop the liberation of the mind through love. We will practice it often. We will make it our vehicle and foundation. We will take our stand upon it, store it up and promote it.’
S.II,264 (SN 20.4)
