My Dhamma talk and our sangha discussion is on the Vajira Sutta. This sutta describes I-making and impermanence. Mara represents the conditioned grasping-after constant self-establishment of a mind conflicted by its own ignorance.

“For it is only stress that arises (from ignorance of Four Noble Truths), stress arising and passing away. Nothing but stress arises from ignorance. Nothing ceases but stress…” (Vajira Sutta)
