Verse on good deeds

Dadato puññaṃ pavaḍḍhati,
Saṃyamato veraṃ na cīyati.
Kusalo ca jahāti pāpakaṃ,
Rāgadosamohakkhayā sanibbutoti

布施之人,其福德增长
自制之人,愤怒不能起
行善之人,舍弃一切恶
灭尽贪瞋痴,彼得证涅盘。

Who gives, his virtues shall increase;
Who is self-curbed, no hatred bears;
Whoso is skilled in virtue, evil shuns,
And by the rooting out of lust and hate
And all delusion, comes to be at peace.


From: Mahaparinibbana Sutta

看透之後

不要陷入世上的種種束縛,
看透愛慾之後,應該學會涅槃。
