923.More DetailsCommentaries

"The root of the term 'obsession'," (thus spoke the Blessed One)

"With wisdom one should keep in check all that is 'I am';

Whatever cravings there are internally,

For the removal of those, one should always train mindfully.

924.More DetailsCommentaries

"Whatever quality one might directly know, internally or else externally;

One should not make strength by that, for that is not called quenching by the good.

925.More DetailsCommentaries

"One should not imagine oneself better by that, nor inferior, or else equal;

Touched by various forms, one should not stand imagining oneself.

926.More DetailsCommentaries

"One should find peace only internally, a monk should not seek peace from another;

For one internally at peace, there is no self, whence non-self?

927.More DetailsCommentaries

"Just as in the middle of the ocean, a wave does not arise, it remains stable;

So established, without longing, a monk should not create excess anywhere."

928.More DetailsCommentaries

"The one with open vision declared the teaching witnessed firsthand, the removal of dangers;

Tell the practice, venerable one, the principal monastic code or else concentration."

"One should not be greedy with the eyes, one should shut out the ear from village talk;

And one should not covet flavours, nor should one cherish anything in the world.

930.More DetailsCommentaries

"When touched by contact, a monk should not lament anywhere;

And should not yearn for existence, and should not tremble among fearful things.

931.More DetailsCommentaries

"Of food and also of beverages, of solid food and also of cloths;

Having obtained, one should not make storage, nor should one be distressed not obtaining those.

932.More DetailsCommentaries

"A meditator should not be desirous of wandering about, he should refrain from remorse and not be negligent;

Then a monk should dwell in seats and beds that are quiet.

933.More DetailsCommentaries

"One should not cultivate sleep, the ardent one should devote oneself to wakefulness;

One should abandon lethargy, deceit, laughter, play, sexual intercourse together with adornment.

934.More DetailsCommentaries

"One should not practise the Atharva Veda, dream interpretation, or reading marks, and also not astrology;

Nor interpreting animal cries, nor inducing conception, nor medical treatment - one devoted to me should not pursue these.

935.More DetailsCommentaries

"A monk should not tremble at blame, nor should he be elated when praised;

He should dispel greed together with stinginess, wrath and slander.

936.More DetailsCommentaries

"One should not engage in buying and selling, a monk should not make blame anywhere;

And one should not be attached in the village, one should not cajole people out of desire for gain.

937.More DetailsCommentaries

"And a monk should not be a boaster, nor should he speak speech that is contrived;

He should not train in impudence, nor should he speak contentious talk.

938.More DetailsCommentaries

"One should not be led into untruth, fully aware one should not act fraudulently;

Then by livelihood, by wisdom, by moral rules and austerities, one should not despise another.

939.More DetailsCommentaries

"Having heard much speech, provoked by ascetics or ordinary people;

One should not reply to them with harshness, for the peaceful do not make opposition.

940.More DetailsCommentaries

"Having understood this Teaching, a monk should always train mindfully, investigating;

Having known peace as 'this is peace', one should not be negligent in the teaching of Gotama.

941.More DetailsCommentaries

"For he is an overlord, unvanquished, a seer of the teaching face to face, not based on hearsay;

Therefore, in that Blessed One's Dispensation, one should always, diligent, pay homage and train."
