### [12.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.12.23)

入道慚愧人　持鉢攝眾生  
云何縱欲塵　沈沒於五情  
已捨五欲樂　棄之而不顧  
如何還欲得　如愚自食吐  
諸欲求時苦　得時多怖畏  
失時多熱惱　一切無樂處  
諸患如是已　云何能捨之  
得福禪定樂　則不為所欺

> A person who has entered the Way and possesses shame and conscience, / holding the bowl to gather in sentient beings: / how could they indulge in the dust of desires / and submerge themselves in the five passions? / Having already abandoned the pleasures of the five desires, / casting them away without looking back, / how could one wish to obtain them again, / like a fool eating their own vomit? / When seeking desires, there is suffering; / when obtaining them, there is much fear; / when losing them, there is much feverish distress— / in none of them is there any place of joy. / Since all these afflictions are like this, / how can one abandon them? / By attaining the meritorious bliss of dhyāna, / one will not be deceived by them.
