<strong>Patna</strong> Dharmapada - 201<br />

[405 ≈ Ud-v 32.57, Bhikṣuvargaḥ]<br />

Yo doṣam udicchiyā aśeṣaṁ,<br />

That one who cuts off hatred without remainder,<br />

bisapuṣpaṁ va sareruhaṁ vigāhya,<br />

like one who has plucked a lotus growing in a lake,<br />

so bhikkhu jahāti orapāraṁ,<br />

that monk abandons the near and far shore,<br />

urago jinnam iva ttacāṁ purāṇiṁ.<br />

like a snake (who has abandoned) its old, worn-out skin.<br />

Yo dveṣam udācchinatty aśeṣaṁ,<br />

That one who cuts off hatred without remainder,<br />

bisapuṣpam iva jaleruhaṁ 121 vigāhya,<br />

like one who has plucked a lotus growing in a lake,<br />

sa tu bhikṣur idaṁ jahāty apāraṁ,<br />

that monk abandons this and the far shore,<br />

hy urago jīrṇam iva tvacaṁ purāṇam.<br />

like a snake (who has abandoned) its old, worn-out skin.<br />

121<br />

The word is different in Udānavarga, but with the same meaning.
