Vasabhattheragāthā

“Pubbe hanati attānaṁ, pacchā hanati so pare; Suhataṁ hanti attānaṁ, vītaṁseneva pakkhimā.

English · Bhikkhu Sujato

Vasabha

First one kills oneself, then one kills others. One kills oneself, really dead, like one who kills birds using a dead bird as a decoy.

Pāli · Sutta Piṭaka (Pāli, Mahāsaṅgīti)

Na brāhmaṇo bahivaṇṇo, anto vaṇṇo hi brāhmaṇo; Yasmiṁ pāpāni kammāni, sa ve kaṇho sujampatī”ti.

English · Bhikkhu Sujato

A brahmin’s color is not on the outside; a brahmin is colored on the inside. Whoever harbors bad deeds is truly a dark one, Sujampati.
