383 Stop the stream valiantly, drive away the desires, O Brahmana! When you have understood the destruction of all that was made, you will understand that which was not made.

384 (26.2) yadā dvayesu dhammesū pāragū hoti brāhmaṇo
athassa sabbe saṃyogā atthaṃ gacchanti jānato.

以無二法清淨渡淵
(24) 諸欲結解是謂梵志

384 If the Brahmana has reached the other shore in both laws (in restraint and contemplation), all bonds vanish from him who has obtained knowledge.

vītaddaraṃ visaṃyuttaṃ tam ahaṃ brūmi brāhmaṇaṃ.

atha sabbamahorattiṃ buddho tapati tejasā.

日照於晝月照於夜
(28) 甲兵照軍禪照道人
佛出天下 (29) 照一切冥
((572c1) 非剃爲沙門稱吉爲梵志
(2) 謂能捨衆惡是則爲道人)

387 The sun is bright by day, the moon shines by night, the warrior is bright in his armour, the Brahmana is bright in his meditation; but Buddha, the Awakened, is bright with splendour day and night.

388 (26.6) bāhitapāpo’ti brāhmaṇo samacariyā samaṇo’ti vuccati
pabbājayaṃ attano malaṃ tasmā pabbajito’ti vuccati.

(3) 出惡爲梵志入正爲沙門
(4) 棄我衆穢行是則爲捨家

388 Because a man is rid of evil, therefore he is called Brahmana; because he walks quietly, therefore he is called Samana; because he has sent away his own impurities, therefore he is called Pravragita (Pabbagita, a pilgrim).

389 (26.7) na brāhmaṇassa pahareyya nāssa muñcetha brāhmaṇo
dhī brāhmaṇassa hantāraṃ tato dhī yassa muñcati.

389 No one should attack a Brahmana, but no Brahmana (if attacked) should let himself fly at his aggressor! Woe to him who strikes a Brahmana, more woe to him who flies at his aggressor!

390 (26.8) na brāhmaṇass’etad akiñci seyyo
yadā nisedho manaso piyehi
yato yato hiṃsamano² nivattati
tato tato sammatim eva dukkhaṃ.

2. Probably read hi assa mano.

(5) 若猗於愛心無所著
已捨已正 (6) 是滅衆苦

390 It advantages a Brahmana not a little if he holds his mind back from the pleasures of life; when all wish to injure has vanished, pain will cease.

392 (26.10) yamhā dhammaṃ vijāneyya sammāsambuddhadesitaṃ
sakkaccaṃ taṃ namasseyya aggihuttaṃ’va brāhmaṇo.

若心曉了 (8) 佛所説法
觀心自歸淨於爲水

392 After a man has once understood the law as taught by the Well- awakened (Buddha), let him worship it carefully, as the Brahmana worships the sacrificial fire.

yamhi saccañca dhammo ca so sucī so’va brāhmaṇo.

(9) 非蔟結髮名爲梵志
誠行法行 (10) 清白則賢

393 A man does not become a Brahmana by his platted hair, by his family, or by birth; in whom there is truth and righteousness, he is blessed, he is a Brahmana.

394 (26.12) kiṃ te jaṭāhi dummedha kiṃ te ajinasāṭiyā
abbhantaraṃ te gahaṇaṃ bāhiraṃ parimajjasi.

飾髮無慧草衣何施
(11) 内不離著外捨何益

394 What is the use of platted hair, O fool! what of the raiment of goat-skins? Within thee there is ravening, but the outside thou makest clean.

bhovādī nāma so hoti sace hoti sakiñcano
akiñcanaṃ anādānaṃ tam ahaṃ brūmi brāhmaṇaṃ.
