Suttanipāta 5.11 Jatukaṇṇimāṇavapucchā

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dispel greed for sensual pleasures,
Having seen renunciation as safety,
May there be nothing
Grasped or rejected by you.

Dry up what was before.
May there be nothing after.
If you do not grasp anything in the middle,
You will wander calmed.

One completely without greed
For name and form, brāhmaṇa,
Has no mental outflows by which
He would go under the sway of death.
