Chapter I The Twin´Verses
1。 All that we are is the result of what we have thought�此�it is founded
on our thoughts�察�it is made up of our thoughts。 If a man speaks or acts
with an evil thought�察�pain follows him�察�as the wheel follows the foot of the
ox that draws the carriage。
2。 All that we are is the result of what we have thought�此�it is founded
on our thoughts�察�it is made up of our thoughts。 If a man speaks or acts
with a pure thought�察 �happiness follows him�察 �like a shadow that never
leaves him。
3。 ;He abused me�察 �he beat me�察 �he defeated me�察 �he robbed me�察�in
those who harbour such thoughts hatred will never cease。
4。 ;He abused me�察 �he beat me�察 �he defeated me�察 �he robbed me�察�in
those who do not harbour such thoughts hatred will cease。
5。 For hatred does not cease by hatred at any time�此�hatred ceases by
love�察�this is an old rule。
6。 The world does not know that we must all come to an end here��but
those who know it�察�their quarrels cease at once。
7。 He who lives looking for pleasures only�察 �his senses uncontrolled�察�
immoderate in his food�察�idle�察�and weak�察�Mara ��the tempter�� will certainly
overthrow him�察�as the wind throws down a weak tree。
8。 He who lives without looking for pleasures�察 �his senses well
controlled�察 �moderate in his food�察 �faithful and strong�察 �him Mara will
certainly not overthrow�察 �any more than the wind throws down a rocky
mountain。
9。 He who wishes to put on the yellow dress without having cleansed
himself from sin�察�who disregards temperance and truth�察�is unworthy of the
yellow dress。
10。 But he who has cleansed himself from sin�察�is well grounded in all
virtues�察�and regards also temperance and truth�察�he is indeed worthy of the
yellow dress。
11。 They who imagine truth in untruth�察�and see untruth in truth�察�never
arrive at truth�察�but follow vain desires。

12。 They who know truth in truth�察�and untruth in untruth�察�arrive at truth�察�
and follow true desires。
13。 As rain breaks through an ill´thatched house�察 �passion will break
through an unreflecting mind。
14。 As rain does not break through a well´thatched house�察�passion will
not break through a well´reflecting mind。
15。 The evil´doer mourns in this world�察�and he mourns in the next�察�he
mourns in both。 He mourns and suffers when he sees the evil of his own
work。
16。 The virtuous man delights in this world�察�and he delights in the next�察�
he delights in both。 He delights and rejoices�察�when he sees the purity of
his own work。
17。 The evil´doer suffers in this world�察�and he suffers in the next�察�he
suffers in both。 He suffers when he thinks of the evil he has done�察 �he
suffers more when going on the evil path。
18。 The virtuous man is happy in this world�察 �and he is happy in the
next�察�he is happy in both。 He is happy when he thinks of the good he has
done�察�he is still more happy when going on the good path。
19。 The thoughtless man�察�even if he can recite a large portion ��of the
law���察�but is not a doer of it�察�has no share in the priesthood�察�but is like a
cowherd counting the cows of others。
20。 The follower of the law�察�even if he can recite only a small portion
��of the law���察 �but�察 �having forsaken passion and hatred and foolishness�察�
possesses true knowledge and serenity of mind�察�he�察�caring for nothing in
this world or that to come�察�has indeed a share in the priesthood。

Chapter II On Earnestness
21。 Earnestness is the path of immortality ��Nirvana���察�thoughtlessness
the path of death。 Those who are in earnest do not die�察�those who are
thoughtless are as if dead already。
22。 Those who are advanced in earnestness�察 �having understood this
clearly�察�delight in earnestness�察�and rejoice in the knowledge of the Ariyas
��the elect��。
23。 These wise people�察�meditative�察�steady�察�always possessed of strong
powers�察�attain to Nirvana�察�the highest happiness。
24。 If an earnest person has roused himself�察�if he is not forgetful�察�if his
deeds are pure�察�if he acts with consideration�察�if he restrains himself�察�and
lives according to law��then his glory will increase。
25。 By rousing himself�察 �by earnestness�察 �by restraint and control�察 �the
wise man may make for himself an island which no flood can overwhelm。
26。 Fools follow after vanity�察 �men of evil wisdom。 The wise man
keeps earnestness as his best jewel。
27。 Follow not after vanity�察�nor after the enjoyment of love and lust� �
He who is earnest and meditative�察�obtains ample joy。
28。 When the learned man drives away vanity by earnestness�察�he�察�the
wise�察�climbing the terraced heights of wisdom�察�looks down upon the fools�察�
serene he looks upon the toiling crowd�察�as one that stands on a mountain
looks down upon them that stand upon the plain。
29。 Earnest among the thoughtless�察 �awake among the sleepers�察 �the
wise man advances like a racer�察�leaving behind the hack。
30。 By earnestness did Maghavan ��Indra�� rise to the lordship of the
gods。 People praise earnestness�察�thoughtlessness is always blamed。
31。 A Bhikshu ��mendicant�� who delights in earnestness�察 �who looks
with fear on thoughtlessness�察�moves about like fire�察�burning all his fetters�察�
small or large。
32。 A Bhikshu ��mendicant�� who delights in reflection�察�who looks with
fear on thoughtlessness�察 �cannot fall away ��from his perfect state��he is
close upon Nirvana。

Chapter III Thought
33。 As a fletcher makes straight his arrow�察�a wise man makes straight
his trembling and unsteady thought�察�which is difficult to guard�察�difficult to
hold back。
34。 As a fish taken from his watery home and thrown on dry ground�察�
our thought trembles all over in order to escape the dominion of Mara ��the
tempter��。
35。 It is good to tame the mind�察�which is difficult to hold in and flighty�察�
rushing wherever it listeth�察�a tamed mind brings happiness。
36。 Let the wise man guard his thoughts�察 �for they are difficult to
perceive�察 �very artful�察 �and they rush wherever they list�此 �thoughts well
guarded bring happiness。
37。 Those who bridle their mind which travels far�察�moves about alone�察�
is without a body�察 �and hides in the chamber ��of the heart���察 �will be free
from the bonds of Mara ��the tempter��。
38。 If a man
