DHAMMAPADA XXI, 4

Syair 293

Mereka yang selalu giat melatih perenungan terhadap badan jasmani, tidak melakukan apa yang tak seharusnya dilakukan dan selalu melakukan apa yang seharusnya dilakukan, maka kekotoran-kekotoran batin akan lenyap dalam diri mereka yag memiliki kesadaran dan pengertian terang seperti itu.

Para kang tansah nggegulang ngulatake badan jasmanine, ora nindakake apa kang kudune ora katindakake sarta tansah nindakake apa kang kudune katindakake, leletheking batine bakal sirna saka wong kang darbe kawaspadan sarta pangerten kaya mangkono iku.

But they whose whole watchfulness is always directed to their body, who do not follow what ought not to be done, and who steadfastly do what ought to be done, the desires of such watchful and wise people will come to an end.
