*The gift of Truth  excels all (other)gifts.

* Good is restraint in eye,ear ,nose,tongue.

*Good is restraint indeed ,word ,thought ,all sense doors.

*Associate with noble& energetic friends.

*Long is the night to the wakeful; long is the league to the  weary; long is the cycle of rebirths (samsara)  to fools who know not the sublime truth.

All is impermanent!
Suffering!
Here shall I live in the rainy season,here in the cold season and in the summer, thus thinks the fool; but he does not realise the danger( of death that may come in between.)

Birth is painful,old age, sickness, death, sorrow, despair are painful.
There never was and there never will be , nor is there now to be found ,one who is altogether blamed or altogether praised.

‘ I HAVE SONS, I HAVE WEALTH’ , SO THINKS THE FOOL AND IS WORRIED ABOUT .VERITY, HE HIMSELF IS NOT OF HIS OWN;WHENCE SONS?WHENCE WEALTH?

TOUGH, FOR A MOMENT ONLY, AN INTELLIGENT PERSON ASSOCIATES WITH A WISE MAN,SPEEDILY HE UNDERSTANDS THE TRUTH ( DHAMMA) AS THE TONGUE ( TASTES) THE FLAVOUR OF SOUP .

VERILY ,AN EVIL DEED COMMITTED DOESNOT IMMEDIATELY BEAR FRUIT, JUST AS MILK CURDLES NOT AT ONCE ; (WHEN IT RIPENS) IT FOLLOWS THE FOOL LIKE A SMOULDERING SPARK THAT BREAKS OUT INTO FLAME.
