Not doing any bad deeds, undertaking wholesome deeds,
sacittapariyodapanaṁ etaṁ Buddhāna’ sāsanaṁ. [183]

Khantī paramaṁ tapo titikkhā, Nibbānaṁ paramaṁ vadanti Buddhā.

Na hi pabbajito parūpaghāti, samaṇo hoti paraṁ viheṭhayanto. [184]

Anūpavādo, anūpaghāto, pātimokkhe ca saṁvaro,
Not finding fault, not hurting, restraint in regard to the precepts,
mattaññutā ca bhattasmiṁ, pantañ-ca sayanāsanaṁ,
