The Canto of Desire The Brahmin
Other Authors Nolini Kanta Gupta DhammapadaPaliThe Bhikkhu
The Bhikkhu

[1]

It is good to control one's eye, good to control one's ear, good to control one's nose, good to control one's tongue.

[2]

It is good to control one's body, good to control one's speech, good to control one's mind; it is good to have control everywhere. The Bhikkhu who has control everywhere is freed from all sorrows.

[3]

One who has control over his hands, who has control over his feet, who has control over his speech, is the best among the self-controlled; he is concentrated in the Spirit, wholly self-absorbed, lone and happy, he is indeed a Bhikkhu.

[4]

The Bhikkhu who has his mouth controlled, who speaks after taking thought, who is not pretentious, who moves to the goal and is on the path, possesses a sweet utterance.

[5]

The Bhikkhu delights in the Path, he adheres to the Path, he contemplates on the Path, he follows the Path, he never falls away from the Path.

[6]

Do not despise your own gain, do not covet others' gain. If one desires others' gain, one never attains consolation.

[7]

If one gains a little and does not despise the little gain that is one's own, the gods praise him; for he lives a pure life and is ever vigilant.

[8]

One who has no attachment for any name and form and does not grieve at their disappearance, him they calla Bhikkhu.

[9]

One who moves as a friend, who is happy in Buddha's Laws, .attains that happy seat of existence where all contingencies cease.

[10]

O Bhikkhu, bailout your boat, thus it will become lighter. Even so, cast out your attachments and taints and you will attain Nirvana.

[11]

Cut out the five,1 conquer the other five.2 Concentrate on the five others.3 The Bhikkhu who is thus freed in a fivefold way is said to have crossed the ocean waters.

[12]

O Bhikkhu, take to meditation, let there be no delusion, let not your mind wander in objects of desire. Do not be lured and swallow the red-hot ball of iron and then get scorched and lament, "Oh, I suffer!"

[13]

One without knowledge can have no meditation and without meditation one can have no knowledge. One who has both knowledge and meditation, can reach Nirvana.

[14]

The Bhikkhu who has entered the house of emptiness, whose mind is quieted, who clearly distinguishes the Divine Law attains superhuman delight.

[15]

Each time he concentrates on the appearance and disappearance of the contingents, he enjoys the happiness and delight of those who have attained immortality.

[16]

Such are the very first things for the Bhikkhu who has attained the right knowledge: control over the senses, contentment, self-discipline according to the Code; choosing one among friends who leads constantly a pure life for the good of all.

[17]

Be hospitable and courteous and self-contented. So shall you end your suffering.

[18]

A flowering plant sheds its withered flowers, even so, O Bhikkhu, shed your attachments, your likes and dislikes.

[19]

Quiet in body, quiet in speech, quiet in mind, deep in concentration, all world's desires ended, the Bhikkhu attains perfect Peace.

[20]

Move the self by the self, establish the self by the self. Guarded by the self, always mindful, the Bhikkhu dwells in Felicity.

[21]

The self is the master of the self. The self is the refuge of the self. Discipline your self, even as a dealer disciplines a horse of breed.

[22]

Full of happiness and delight in the pursuit of the Buddha's discipline, the Bhikkhu attains the state of perfect peace, the felicity that is cessation from all contingents.

[23]

The young Bhikkhu who yokes himself to the Buddha-discipline illumines the world even like the moon freed from the clouds.

Ego, doubt, outward ceremonies, greed, ill-will.

Craving for the world of form, craving for the world of the formless, pride, mental restlessness, ignorance.

Faith, energy, concentration, attentiveness, meditation, intelligence.
