Pāli · Sutta Piṭaka (Pāli, Mahāsaṅgīti)

Abhayamātutherīgāthā

“Uddhaṁ pādatalā amma, adho ve kesamatthakā; Paccavekkhassumaṁ kāyaṁ, asuciṁ pūtigandhikaṁ.

English · Bhikkhu Sujato

To Abhayā’s Mother From Her Daughter

My dear mother, examine this body, up from the soles of the feet, and down from the tips of the hairs, so impure and foul-smelling.

Pāli · Sutta Piṭaka (Pāli, Mahāsaṅgīti)

Evaṁ viharamānāya, sabbo rāgo samūhato; Pariḷāho samucchinno, sītibhūtāmhi nibbutā”ti.

English · Bhikkhu Sujato

Meditating like this, all my lust is eradicated. The fever of passion is cut off, I’m cooled and quenched.
