Dhammapada Memorization: Verse 24

24. By effort and heedfulness, discipline and self-mastery, let the wise one make for himself an island which no flood can overwhelm.

Please find the audio recording of this verse below. Please take the time to recite the following three times before reading the words of Lord Buddha:

Namo Tassa Bhagavato Arahato Sammā Sambudhassa (3 times).

Homage to the blessed One, the Perfected One, the Fully Awakened One (3 times).

Be sure to repeat the verse, with the verse number at least ten times out loud (I have recorded five repetitions). It helps if you can do this multiple times a day and use as many different techniques (writing, repetition, listening) as possible.
