How long the night to the watchman, How long the road to the weary traveller, How long the wandering of many lives To the fool who misses the way.

He who has renounced all violence towards all living beings, weak or strong, who neither kills nor causes others to kill - him I do call a holy man.

Wakefulness is the way to life. The fool sleeps As if he were already dead, But the master is awake And he lives forever.

All phenomena do not inherently exist because of being dependent-arisings. all phenomena do not inherently exist because of being dependently imputed.

Those who walk in the Way should avoid sensualism as those who carry hay would avoid coming near the fire.

And so, with a boundless heart should one cherish all living beings.

Don't indulge in careless behaviour. Don't be the friend of sensual pleasures. He who meditates attentively attains abundant joy.
