They ward off cold and heat and beasts of prey from there
And creeping things and gnats and rains in the wet season.
When the dreaded hot wind arises, that is warded off.
To meditate and obtain insight in a refuge and at ease: −
A dwelling-place is praised by the Awakened One as chief gift to an
Order.
Therefore a wise man, looking to his own wealth, should have charming
dwelling-places built so that those who have heard much can stay therein.
To these food and drink, raiment and lodgings
he should give, to the upright, with mind purified.
(Then) these teach him dhamma dispelling every ill;
He, knowing that dhamma, here attains nibbāna, cankerless.
