THE WISE

THE WISE
T I T L E (1) :
Should one see a wise man, Who, like a revealer of treasures, Points out faults and reproves, Let one associate with such a one, Well is it, not ill, to associate with such a one.
T I T L E (2) :
Let him admonish, exhort And shield from wrong Truly, pleasing is he to the good, Displeasing is he to the bad.
T I T L E (3) :
Associate not with evil friends; Associate not with mean men; Associate with good friends; Associate with noble men.
T I T L E (4) :
He who imbibes the Dharma Lives happily with the mind at rest. The wise man ever delights In the Dharman revealed by the Noble.
T I T L E (5) :
Irrigators lead water; Fletchers fashion shafts; Carpenters bend wood; The wise tame themselves.
T I T L E (6) :
Even as asolid rock Is not shaken by the wind So do the wise remain unmoved By praise or blame.
T I T L E (7) :
Just as a lake is deep, clear and still Even so the wise On hearing the Dhamma, Become exceedingly peaceful.
T I T L E (8) :
The good renounce everything And do not speak hankering after desires. Touched by sorrow or happiness, The wise become neither elated nor depressed.
T I T L E (9) :
Neither for one's own nor another's sake Should one commit any wrong, Nor, by unjust means, should one desire Sons, wealth, state or one's own success. He should be virtuous, wise and righteous.
T I T L E (10) :
Few are there among men Who go to the further shore, The rest of this mankund Only run up and down the hither bank.
T I T L E (11) :
Those who conform to the Dharma That has been well expounded -- Those are they who will reach the Beyound, Crossing the realm of death, so hard to cross.
T I T L E (12) :
Coming from home to the homeless, The wise man should abandon dark state And cultivate the bright. He should seek great delight in solitude, So hard to enjoy.
T I T L E (13) :
Giving up sensual pleasures, With no attachment The wise man should cleanse himself Of the impurities of the mind.
T I T L E (14) :
Whose minds are well perfected In the Factors of Enlightenment, Who without clinging, delight in detachment -- They, the corruption - free, radiant ones, Have attained Nibbana in the Here - and - Now.
Dhammapada

Live in Joy

Live in Joy, In love,
Even among those who hate.

Live in joy, In health,
Even among the afflicted.

Live in joy, In peace,
Even among the troubled.

Look within. Be still.
Free from fear and attachment,
Know the sweet joy of living in the way.
