經律異相 34.16

34.16

譬如一身居　人去舍毀傾
神遊而身棄　莫能制其形
癡貪謂可保　安知後當亡

"Like dwelling alone in a single house, / when the person departs, the house collapses and falls. / The spirit wanders and the body is cast away, / none being able to control its form. / Deluded and greedy, they think it can be preserved; / how do they know it must later perish?"
