In this sutta, the Buddha compares the work of a goldsmith to the work of a meditator trying to purify their mind.

Both have to pay attention to 3 qualities at the appropriate time, without overdoing any of them:

  1. Calming the mind with samādhi / cooling the gold in the smelter
  2. Arousing the mind with energetic effort / heating the gold
  3. Looking on with equanimity / observing the gold with equanimity
