Thag 2:11 · Mahā Cunda
Listening well increases learning.
What is learned increases discernment.
Through discernment one knows the goal.
When known, the goal brings bliss.
Stay in isolated lodgings;
live for freedom from fetters.
If you don’t attain delight there,
then live in the Saṅgha,
your mind protected,
mindful.
