    is there a way in buddhism to cure a sociopath? if yes, what's the procedure?

    at this link: http://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/mn/mn.086.than.html, Buddha allegedly cured a sociopath by frustrating & disempowering the sociopath thru a feat of magic but it is probably just a fable

    from 1:45:25 a depiction is in this movie, when the sociopath decides to kill his own mother, so Buddha intervenes



    but i can imagine, in reality, a sociopath could only be curred by witnessing the suffering they cause to others, such as by watching/listening to victims

    in Buddhism, a cure starts with comprehending the suffering of ourselves & others

    regards
