 So long as the love of man towards women, even the smallest, is not destroyed, so long is his mind in bondage, as the calf that drinks milk is to its mother. |
| Some people are born again; evil-doers go to hell; righteous people go to heaven; those who are free from all worldly desires attain immortality. |
| Sons are no help, nor a father, nor relations; there is no help from kinsfolk for one whom death has seized. |
| That deed is not well done of which a man must repent, and the reward of which he receives crying and with a tearful face. |
| That fetter wise people call strong which drags down, yields, but is difficult to undo; after having cut this at last, people leave the world, free from cares, and leaving desires and pleasures behind. |
| That is not a safe refuge, that is not the best refuge; a man is not delivered from all pains after having gone to that refuge. |
| The brilliant chariots of kings are destroyed, the body also approaches destruction, but the virtue of good people never approaches destruction,thus do the good say to the good. |
| The channels run everywhere, the creeper (of passion) stands sprouting; if you see the creeper springing up, cut its root by means of knowledge. |
| The disciple of the truly enlightened Buddha shines forth by his knowledge among those who are like rubbish, among the people that walk in darkness. |
| The earth is always represented as an emblem of patience; the bolt of Indra, if taken in its technical sense, as the bolt of a gate, might likewise suggest the idea of firmness; while the lake is a constant representative of serenity and purity. |
| The evil done by oneself, self-begotten, self-bred, crushes the foolish, as a diamond breaks a precious stone. |
| The evil path and the good path are technical expressions for the descending and ascending scale of worlds through which all beings have to travel upward or downward, according to their deeds. |
| The evil-doer mourns in the next; he mourns in both. He mourns and suffers when he sees the evil of his own work. |
| The evil-doer mourns in this world. |
| The fault of others is easily perceived, but that of oneself is difficult to perceive. |
