SC 167Do not follow an inferior teaching;
Do not live by negligence;
Do not embrace wrong views;
Do not be a world-enhancer.

SC 168Arise and be not negligent.
Follow the Dhamma, practice well.
Happy the one who dwells in Dhamma,
Both in this world and in the next.

SC 169Practice the Dhamma well, not poorly.
Happy the one who dwells in Dhamma,
Both in this world and in the next.

SC 170Look upon the world as a bubble;
Look upon the world as a mirage.
One who looks thus is unseen by the
king of Death.

SC 171Come, look at this world as an adorned king’s
chariot.
While fools sink down, the discriminating are free.

SC 172One who was once negligent but becomes diligent,
Illumines the world,
Like a moon released from a cloud.

SC 173One whose evil conduct is replaced by good,
Illumines the world,
Like a moon released from a cloud.

SC 174Blind is this world where few see clearly.
As birds who escape from the snare are few,
So too are those who go to a higher plane.

SC 175Geese travel by the path of the sun,
By power they move through the sky.
The wise are led from the world,
Having conquered Māra and his army.

SC 176Of the one who has transgressed the law,
Rejected the world beyond,
And speaks falsely:
There is no evil that he could not do.

SC 177Truly, the selfish do not enter the realm of the gods.
Fools do not praise generosity.
But the wise one, rejoicing in generosity,
Is thereby happy in the next world.

SC 178Over sole sovereignty of the earth,
Or going to a heaven,
Or lordship over all worlds,
The fruit of stream-winner is supreme.
