Nandakattheragāthā
“Dhiratthu pūre duggandhe, mārapakkhe avassute; Navasotāni te kāye, yāni sandanti sabbadā.
Nandaka (2nd)
Curse you mortal frame, you stink! You’re on Māra’s side, you fester! O body, you have nine streams that are flowing all the time.
Mā purāṇaṁ amaññittho, māsādesi tathāgate; Saggepi te na rajjanti, kimaṅgaṁ pana mānuse.
Don’t think much of mortal frames; don’t disparage the Realized Ones. They’re not even aroused by heaven, let alone by humans.
Ye ca kho bālā dummedhā, dummantī mohapārutā; Tādisā tattha rajjanti, mārakhittamhi bandhane.
But those who are fools and simpletons, with bad advisors, wrapped in delusion, that kind of person is aroused by bodies, when Māra has laid down the snare.
Yesaṁ rāgo ca doso ca, avijjā ca virājitā; Tādī tattha na rajjanti, chinnasuttā abandhanā”ti.
Those in whom greed, hate, and ignorance have faded away; such people are not aroused by bodies, they’ve cut the strings, unbound.
