WORDS OF DHAMMA

Yato yato sammasati, khandhana? udayabbaya?;
Labhati pitipamojja?, amata? ta? vijanata?

- Whenever one is aware of the arising and passing away of the aggregates, one finds rapture and joy.
This to the wise is the way to the deathless (Nibbana).

- Dhammapada- 374, Bhikkhuvagga

WORDS OF DHAMMA

Kumbhupamam kayamimam viditva, 
Nagarupamam cittamidam thapetva; 
Yodhetha mara, paññavudhena, 
Jitañca rakkhe anivesano siya.

Knowing the body to be as fragile as an earthen pot, making the mind secure and strong like a fortress, one should battle Mara with the weapon of wisdom, then guard what's won by keeping watch over the mind and remaining detached.

- Dhammapada 40, Cittavagga
