'One is the road that leads to wealth, another the road that leads to Nirvâna;' if the Bhikshu, the disciple of Buddha, has learnt this, he will not yearn for honour, he will strive after separation from the world.
[72. I take ñattam for gñapitam, the causative of gñâtam, for which in Sanskrit, too, we have the form without i, gñaptam. This gñaptam, 'made known, revealed,' stands in opppsition to the khanna, 'covered, hid,' of the preceding verse. Sukkamsa, which Fausböll explains by suklâmsa, has probably a more technical and special meaning. Childers traces ñattam to the Vedic gñâtram, 'knowledge.' Fausböll refers to Gâtaka, vol. i. p. 445, v. 118.
