“Whichever Mendicant who has done their duty and become an Arahant,
being free of obsessions they wear their last body.
They still might use words such as 'I',
they still might use words such as 'mine'.”

Whichever Mendicant who has done their duty and become an Arahant,
being free of obsessions they wear their last body.
they still might use words such as 'I',
they still might use words such as 'mine'.
Because they know the skilled use of conventions,
using such conceited expressions in moderation.”

Whichever Mendicant who has done their duty and become an Arahant,
being free of obsessions they wear their last body.
When conceited they go to a mendicant,
they still might use words such as 'I',
they still might use words such as 'mine'.”

The bonds are eliminated for one who does not compare,
all the ties of conceit are destroyed.
The wise overcome opinions,
they still might use words such as 'I'.

“They still might use words such as 'mine'.
Because they know the skilled use of conventions.
They use such conceited expressions in moderation.”

    About

    All translations here are from Pali to English by Cittasanto, done for personal reflection and understanding, not as expert translations.
    Please read translations by other translators who are far more skilled in the Pali language such as Thanissaro Bhikkhu (Ajahn Geoff) or Ven. Bhikkhu Bhodhi.
    Please check the calendar for upcoming translation posts.

    Current Projects

    The Dhammapada -
    I started this project a little while ago, although it was mainly Gathas used in chanting, or for Calligraphy Projects.

    Apart from these I have finished the first 15 chapters. Updates with translations being done both in general and specific projects will be shared on the calendar.
