| It.036 | Dutiya-nakuhana Sutta | Bhikkhus, this holy life is not lived for the sake of deceiving people, for the sake of cajoling people, for the sake of profiting in gain, honour and fame, nor with the idea, 'Let people know me thus.' This holy life, bhikkhus, is lived for the sake of direct knowledge and full understanding." The Lord taught a holy life Not based on tradition, For knowledge and understanding, Leading to and merging ill Nibbana. This is the path followed by the great, Pursued by the lofty sages. Those who enter that course As taught by the Enlightened Heeding the Teacher's instructions, Will make an end of suffering. | 45/218 | Itivuttaka | Khuddhaka | It.029 | deceit |
