Verses of the Senior Monks 2.30

The Book of the Twos

Chapter Three

Kaṇhadinna

I regularly sat close by true persons
and learnt the teaching.
What I learned, I practiced,
the direct route that culminates in freedom from death.

I’ve slain the desire to be reborn,
it won’t be found in me again.
It was not, and it won’t be in me,
and it isn’t found in me now.
