# 法苑珠林 75.11

法苑珠林 75.11

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [75.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.75.11)

如火益乾薪　增長火熾然  
如是受樂者　愛火轉增長  
薪火雖熾然　人皆能捨離  
愛火燒世間　纏綿不可捨

> Just as adding dry fuel to a fire / Causes the blaze to flare up and increase, / So too for one who enjoys pleasures: / The fire of craving increasingly grows. / Though a fire of fuel blazes intensely, / People are all able to abandon and leave it; / But the fire of craving burns the world, / Tightly entangling and impossible to forsake.
