Refraining from taking life, restraint in seizing another's wealth, truthful speech, / giving in due season according to one's capacity, silence regarding other men's young wives, / breaking the current of craving, humility toward elders, compassion for all beings: / this is the universal, unimpeded path to the highest good taught in all authoritative treatises.
