THE HELL
HE WHO SAYS WHAT IS NOT, GOES TO HELL, HE ALSO WHO, HAVING DONE THING, SAYS I HAVE NOT DONE. AFTER DEATH ARE EQUAL, THEY ARE MEN WITH EVIL DEEDS IN THE NEXT WORLD.
MANY MEN WHOSE SHOULDERS ARE COVERED WITH THE YELLO GOWN ARE ILLCONDITIONED AND UNRESTRAINED, SUCH EVIL- DOER BY THEIR EVIL DEEDS GO TO HELL.
BETTER IT WOULD BE TO SWALLOW A HEATED IRON BALL, LIKE FLARING FIRE, THAN THAT A BAD UNDERSTRAINED FELLOW SHOULD LIVE IN THE CHARITY OF THE LAND.
FOUR THINGS DOES A RECKLESS MAN GAIN WHO COVETS HIS NEIGHBOR'S WIFE- DEMERIT, AN UNCOMFORTABLE BED, THIRDLY, PUNISHMENT, AND LASTLY, HELL.
AN ACT CARELESSLY PERFORMED, A BROKEN VOW, AND HESITATING OBEDIENCE TO DISCIPLINE PILGRIM ONLY SCATTERS THE DUST OF HIS PASSIONS MORE WIDELY.
AN EVIL DEED IS BETTER LEFT UNDONE, FOR A MAN REPENTS OF IT AFTERWARDS A GOOD DEED IS BETTER LEFT UNDONE, FOR A MAN REPENTS OF IT AFTERWARDS, A GOOD DEED IS BETTER DONE, FOR HAVING DONE IT, ONE DOES NOT REPENT.
LIKE A WELL-GUARDED FRONTIER FORT, WITH DEFENCE WITHIN AND REPENT. SO LET A MAN GUARD HIMSELF. NOT A MOMENT SHOULD ESCAPE, FOR THEY WHO ALLOW THE RIGHT MOMENT TO PASS, SUFFER PAIN WHEN THEY ARE IN HELL.
THEY WHO ARE ASHAMED OF WHAT THEY OUGHT NOT TO BE ASHAMED OF, AND ARE NOT AHAMED OF WHAT THEY OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF, SUCH MEN, EMBARING FALSE DOCTRINES, ENTER THE EVIL PATH.
THEY WHO FEAR WHEN THEY OUGHT NOT TO FEAR, AND FEAR NOT WHEN THEY OUGHT TO FEAR, SUCH MEN, EMBRACING FALSE DOCTRINES, ENTER THE EVIL PATH.
THEY WHO SEE SIN WHERE THERE IS NO SIN, AND SEE NO SIN WHERE THERE IS SIN, SUCH MEN, EMBRACING FALSE DOCTRINES, ENTER THE EVIL PATH.
THEY WHO SEE SIN WHERE THERE IS SIN, AND NO SIN WHERE THERE IS NO SIN, SUCH MEN, EMBRACING THE TRUE DOCTRINE, ENTER THE GOOD PATH.

THIRST
THE THIRST OF A THOUGHTLESS MAN GROWS LIKE A CREEPER, HE RUNS FROM LIFE TO LIFE, LIKE MONKEY SEEKING FRUIT IN THE FOREST.
WHOMSOVER THIS FIERCE POISONOUS THIRST OVERCOMES, IN THIS WORLD, HIS SUFFERINGS INCREASE LIKE THE ABOUNDING BIRANA GRASS.
BUT FROM HIM WHO OVERCOMES THIS FIERCE THIRST, DIFFICULT TO BE CONQUERED IN THIS WORLD, SUFFERINGS ALL OFF, LIKE WATER - DROPS FROM A LOTUS LEAF.
THIS SALUATARY WORD I TELL YOU, DO YE, AS MANY AS ARE HERE ASSEMBLED, DIG UP THE ROOT OF THIRST, AS WHO WANTS THE SWEET- SCENTED USIRA ROOT MUST DIG UP THE BIRANA GRASS, THE MARA, THE TEMPTER, MAY NOT CRUSH YOU AGAIN AND AGAIN, AS THE STEAM CRUSHES THE REEDS.
AS A TREE, EVEN THOUGHT IT HAS BEEN CUT DOWN, IS FIRM SO LONG AS ITS ROOT IS SAFE, AND GROWS AGAIN, THUS, UNLESS THE FEEDERS THE FEEDERS OF THIRST ARE DESTROYED, THIS PAIN OF LIFE WILL RETURN AGAIN AND AGAIN.
HE WHOSE THIRTY - SIX STREAMS ARE STRONGLY FLOWING IN THE CHANNELS OF PLEASURE, THE WAVES, HIS DESIRES WHICH ARE SET A PASSION - WILL CARRY AWAY TAHT MISGUIDED MAN.
THE CHANNELS RUN EVERYWHERE, THE CREEPER OF PASSION STANDS SPROUTING, IF YOU SEE THE CREEPER SPRINGING UP, CUT ITS ROOT BY MEANS OF KNOWLEDGE.
A CREATURE'S PLEASURES ARE EXTRAVAGANT AND LUXURIOUS, GIVEN UP TO PLEASURE AND DERIVING HAPPINESS, MEN UNDERGO AGAIN AND AGAIN BIRTH AND DECAY.
BESET WITH LUST, MEN RUN ABOUT LIKE A SNARED HARE, HELD IN FETTERS AND BONDS, THEY UNDERGO PAIN FOR A LONG TIME, AGAIN AND AGAIN.
BESET WITH LUST, MEN RUN ABOUT LIKE A SNARED HARE, HELD IN FETTERS AND BONDS, THEY UNDERGO PAIN FOR A LONG TIME, AGAIN AND AGAIN.
BESET WITH LUST, MEN RUN ABOUT LIKE A SNARED HARE, LET THEREFORE THE MENDICATE DRIVE OUT THIRST, BY STRIVING AFTER PASSIONLESSNESS FOR HIMSELF.
HE WHO, HAVING GOT RID OF THE FOREST OF LUST (AFTER HAVING REACHED NIRVANA), GIVES HIMSELF OVER TO FAREST - LIFE (TO LUST), AND WHO, WHEN FREE FROM THE FOREST (FROM LUST), RUNS TO THE FREST (TO LUST), LOOK AT THAT MAN! THOUGH FREE, HE RUNS INTO BONDAGE.
WISE PEOPLE DO NOT CALL THAT A STRONG FETTER WHICH IS MADE OF IRON, WOOD, OR HEMP, PASSIONATELY STRONG IS THE CARE FOR PRECIOUS STONES AND RINGS FOR SONS AND A WIFE.
THAT FETTER WISE PEOPLE CALL STRONG WHICH DRAGS DOWN, YIELDS, BUT IS DIFFICULT TO UNDO, AFTER HAVING CUT THIS AT LAST, LEAVE THE WORLD, FREE FROM CARES, AND LEAVING THE PLEASURES OF LOVE BEHIND.

IMPURITY
THOU ART NOW LIKE A SEAR LEAF, THE MESSENGERS OF DEATH (YAMA) HAVE COME NEAR TO THEE, THOU STANDEST AT THE DOOR OF THY DEPARTURE, AND THOU HAST NO PROVISION FOR THY JOURNEY.
MAKE THYSELF AND ISLAND, WORK HARD, BE WISE, WHEN THY IMPURITIES ARE BLOWN AWAY, AND THOU ARE FREE FROM GUILT, THOU WILL ENTER INTO THE HEAVEN ENLY WORLD OF THE ELECT (ARIYA).
THY LIFE HAS COME TO AN END, THOU ARE COME NEAR TO DEATH, (YAMA), THERE IS NO RESTING - PLACE FOR THEE ON THE ROAD, AND THOU HAS NO PROVISION FOR THY JOURNEY.
MAKE THYSELF AN ISLAND, WORK HARD, BE WISE! WHEN THY IMPURITIES ARE BLOWN AWAY, AND THOU ARE FROM GUILT, THOU WILT NOT ENTER AGAIN INTO BIRTH AND DECAY.
LET A WISED MAN BLOW OFF THE IMPURITIES OF HIMSELF, AS A SMITH BLOWS OFF THE IMPURITIES OF SILVER, ONE BY ONE, LITTLE BY LITTLE, AND FROM TIME TO TIME.
AS THE IMPURITY WHICH SPRINGS FROM THE IRON, WHEN IT STRINGS FROM IT, DESTROYS IT, THUS DO A TRANSGRESSOR'S OWN WORKS LEAD HIM TO THE EVIL PATH.
THE TAINT OF PRAYERS IS NON-REPITION, THE TAINT OF HOUSES, NON-REPAIR, THE TAINT OF COMPLEXION IS SLOTH, THE TAINT OF A WATCHMAN, THOUGHTLESSNESS.
BAD CONDUCT IS THE TAINT OF WOMAN, NIGGARDLINESS THE TAINT OF A BENEFACTOR, TAINTED ARE ALL EVIL WAYS, IN THIS WORLD AND IN THE NEXT.
BUT THERE IS A TAINT WORSE THAN ALL TAINTS, IGNORANCE IS THE GREATEST TAINT. O MENDICANTS! THROW OFF THAT TAINT, AND BECOME TAINTLESS!
LIFE IS EASY TO LIVE FOR A MAN WHO IS WITHOUT SHAME, A CROW HERO, A MISCHIEF-MAKER, AN INSULTING, BOLD AND WRETCHED FELLOW.
BUT LIFE IS HARD TO LIVE FOR A MODEST MAN, WHO ALWAYS FOR WHAT IS PURE, WHO IS DISINTERESTED, QUIET, SPOTLESS, AND INTELLIGENT.
THERE IS NO PATH THROUGH THE AIR, A MAN IS NOT A SAMANA OUTWARDLY. THE WORLD DELIGHTS IN VANITY, THE TATHAGATAS (THE BUDDHA) ARE FREE FROM VANITY.
THERE IS NO PATH THROUGH THE AIR, A MAN I NOT A SAMANA OUTWARDLY. NO CREATURES ARE ETERNAL, BUT THE AWAKENED (BUDDHA) ARE NEVER SHAKEN.
