Verses on Dhamma 6.8.83

6.8.83

‘‘Sabbattha ve sappurisā cajanti,
Na kāmakāmā lapayanti santo;
Sukhena phuṭṭhā atha vā dukhena,
Na uccāvacaṃ paṇḍitā dassayantī’’ti.

83. Everywhere good men practice renunciation; good men talk not as if given to sensual pleasure;
Wise men, touched either by happiness or by sorrow, show no change.
