Dhammapada

	DHAMMAPADA XXVI, 29
	Syair 411

Orang yang tidak mempunyai tanha lagi, yangtelah bebas dari keragu-raguan larena memiliki pengetahuan sempurna, yang telah menyelam dalam keadaan tanpa kematian (Nibbana), patut kusebut seorang Brahmana.

Manungsa kang wis ora duwe pepenginan maneh, kang wis uwal saka rasa mangu-mangu amarga ndarbeni kawruh sampurna kang wis njajagi kahanan tanpa pati (Nibbana), kang mangkono iku patut sinebut sawijining Brahmana.

Him I call indeed a Brâhmana who has no longings, and when he has understood (the truth), is free from doubts, and who has reached the depth of the Deathless (Nirvâna).
