Where Suffering Subsides

Verses of the Senior Monks 2.29

The Book of the Twos

Chapter Three

Bhāradvāja

This is how the wise roar:

like lions in mountain caves,

heroes, triumphant in battle,

having vanquished Māra with his legions.

I’ve served the teacher;

I’ve honored the Dhamma and the Saṅgha;

I’m happy and joyful,

because I’ve seen my son free of defilements.
