Silently shall I endure abuse as the elephant in battle endures the arrow sent from the bow: for the world is ill-natured.

May both the layman and he who has left the world think that this is done by me; may they be subject to me in everything which is to be done or is not to be done, thus is the mind of the fool, and his desire and pride increase.

A man cannot be born again in a lower world; but can only be born into a Brahman world, before he reaches Nirvâna.

For an evil act committed in the world does not bear fruit at once, like a cow.

He who overcomes this fierce thirst, difficult to be conquered in this world, sufferings fall off from him, like water-drops from a lotus leaf.

Into whose conquest no one in this world enters, by what track can you lead him, the Awakened, the Omniscient, the trackless?
