Dear Stephen,

Funny you should ask... I just read an inspiring sutta from the
Anguttara Nikaya, translated by a group of dedicated Paali scholars
from http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Pali/ :)

The link is here:
http://www.tipitaka.net/pali/strans/stransload.php?page=an07-068s

I believe this means it is Anguttara Nikaya, Sattanipaata, Sutta #68

Best wishes,

Yuttadhammo
