Right discrimination

[Guest guest]

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

 

When a man dwells on the objects of sense,

he creates an attraction for them; attraction

develops into desire, and desire breeds anger.

 

Anger induces delusion; delusion, loss of memory;

through loss of memory, reason is shattered; and

loss of reason leads to destruction.

 

But the self-controlled soul, who moves amongst

sense-objects, free from either attachment or

repulsion, he wins eternal Peace.

 

Having attained Peace, he becomes free from misery;

for when the mind gains peace, right discrimination

follows.
