267. Yesaṁ ca susamāraddhā<br />
niccaṁ kāyagatā satī,<br />
akiccaṁ te na sevanti,<br />
kicce sātaccakāriṇo,<br />
satānāṁ samprajānānāṁ,<br />
tesaṁ khīyanti āsavā.<br />
But for those who always properly undertake<br />
mindfulness of the body<br />
who do not practice what is not to be done,<br />
persisting in what is to be done,<br />
for those mindful ones, those fully aware,<br />
their pollutants are destroyed.<br />
268. Paravajjānupaśśīnāṁ,<br />
niccaṁ ojjhāyasaññinā,<br />
āsavā tesaṁ vaddhanti,<br />
ārā te āsavakkhayā.<br />
Those who look for others’ fault,<br />
who constantly perceive offence,<br />
for them the pollutants increase,<br />
they are far from their destruction.
