 He(virtuous man) delights and rejoices, when he sees the purity of his own work. |
| Here I shall dwell in the rain, here in winter and summer, thus the fool meditates, and does not think of his death. |
| His good works receive him who has done good, and has gone from this world to the other;as kinsmen receive a friend on his return. |
| His thought is quiet, quiet are his word and deed, when he has obtained freedom by true knowledge, when he has thus become a quiet man. |
| Hunger is the worst of diseases, the body the greatest of pains; if one knows this truly, that is Nirvâna, the highest happiness. |
| I have conquered all, I know all, in all conditions of life I am free from taint; I have left all, and through the destruction of thirst I am free; having learnt myself, whom shall I teach? |
| If a fool be associated with a wise man even all his life, he will perceive the truth as little as a spoon perceives the taste of soup. |
| If a man becomes fat and a great eater, if he is sleepy and rolls himself about, that fool, like a hog fed on wash, is born again and again. |
| If a man commits a sin, let him not do it again; let him not delight in sin: pain is the outcome of evil. |
| If a man find a prudent companion who walks with him, is wise, and lives soberly, he may walk with him, overcoming all dangers, happy, but considerate. |
| If a man for a hundred years sacrifice month after month with a thousand, and if he but for one moment pay homage to a man whose soul is grounded (in true knowledge), better is that homage than sacrifice for a hundred years. |
| If a man has transgressed one law, and speaks lies, and scoffs at another world, there is no evil he will not do. |
| If a man is tossed about by doubts, full of strong passions, and yearning only for what is delightful, his thirst will grow more and more, and he will indeed make his fetters strong. |
| If a man looks after the faults of others, and is always inclined to be offended, his own passions will grow, and he is far from the destruction of passions. |
| If a man make himself as he teaches others to be, then, being himself well subdued, he may subdue (others); one's own self is indeed difficult to subdue. |
