“Passāmahaṃ deva­manus­sa­loke,
Akiñcanaṃ brāhma­ṇa­miriya­mānaṃ;
Taṃ taṃ namassāmi samantacakkhu,
Pamuñca maṃ sakka kathaṅkathāhi”.

Vivekadhammaṃ yamahaṃ vijaññaṃ;

Idheva santo asito careyyaṃ”.

“Kittayissāmi te santiṃ,

Yaṃ viditvā sato caraṃ,
tare loke visattikaṃ”.

“Yaṃ kiñci sampajānāsi,

Uddhaṃ adho tiriyañcāpi majjhe;
Etaṃ viditvā saṅgoti loke,
Bhavābhavāya mākāsi taṇhan”ti.
