- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutras: Ma Prem Maneesha.
- The sutra
- There is pleasure
- And there is bliss.
- Forgot the first to possess the second.
- If you are happy
- At the expense of another man's happiness,
- You are forever bound.
- You do not what you should.
- You do what you should not.
- You are reckless, and desire grows.
- But the master is wakeful.
- He watches his body.
- In all his actions he discriminates,
- And he becomes pure.
- He is without blame
- Though once he may have murdered
- His mother and his father,
- Two kings, a kingdom, and all its subjects.
- Though the kings were holy
- And their subjects among the virtuous,
- Yet he is blameless.
