[90] <strong>Chanting</strong> <strong>Book</strong> of Wat Phra Dhātu Srī Chomtong Voravihāra<br />

Kayirā ce kayirāthenaü<br />

Daëhamenaü parakkame<br />

Sithilo hi paribbājo<br />

Bhiyyo ākirate rajaü.<br />

Akataü dukkañaü seyyo<br />

Pacchā tappati dukkañaü<br />

Katañ ca sukataü seyyo<br />

Yaü katvā nānutappati.<br />

Kuso yathā duggahito<br />

Hattham evānukantati<br />

Sāmaññaü dupparāmatthaü<br />

Nirayāyūpakaóóhati.<br />

Yaï kiñci sithilaü kammaü<br />

Saïkiliññhañ ca yaü vataü<br />

Saïkassaraü brahmacariyaü<br />

Na taü hoti, mahapphalan ti.<br />

[29] Karaõīya-Metta-Sutta The Discourse on Lovingkindness<br />

Vigorously and with all one’s strength<br />

Should be done what should be done;<br />

A lax monastic life stirs up<br />

The dust of passion all the more.<br />

An evil deed is better left undone<br />

Since following on the evil comes remorse;<br />

Whereas, a deed of weal is better done<br />

Which being done leads never to remorse.<br />

As Kusa-grass when wrongly grasped<br />

Doth cut the hand;<br />

So, recluses’ life when wrongly used<br />

Drags one to hell.<br />

Any deed that’s loosely done,<br />

Any vow corruptly kept,<br />

The holy life led dubiously −<br />

None of these will bear great fruit.<br />

[9] WAN DAA LUANG Asking For Forgiveness From The Triple Gems And All Devas<br />

[90] Vassāvāsa Rains-Residence 13<br />

Imasmiü āvāse imaü temāsaü vassaü upemi. I (shall) stay for the rains in this monastery for three months.<br />
