PRECEPTS ON RELIGION 关于宗教
Dhammo mangalamukkittham, ahimsa samjamo tavo.

Religion is supremely auspicious; non-violence, selfcontrol and p[enance are its essentials. Even the gods bow down before him whose mind is ever preoccupied with religion. (82)

Rayanattayam ca dhammo, jivanam rakkhanam dhammo. (83)
The essential nature of a thing is called dharma. The ten virtues, i.e. forgiveness etc., are the ten forms of dharma. The three jewels, i.e. right faith, right knowledge and right conduct, constitute the dharma (religion). To render protection to the living being is also called dharma. (83)
佛法揭示事物的本质属性。十大美德,例如宽恕等,是佛法的十大表现形式。三大要旨,正确的信念,正确的知识,正确的操守构成了佛法。佛法同样给予众生以庇佑。

道歉。

No pihae iti samkhae, ke goyavai ke manvai? (90)
Every one has born several times in high families as well as in low families;l hence none is either high or low. After knowing this, who will feel proud of taking birth in respectable or high family? (90)
每个人都多次出生在高等种姓的家庭同样也多次出生在低等种姓的家庭,因此并没有高低贵贱之分。知道了这一点之后,那些出生在高等种姓家庭的人就不会有骄傲的感觉了。

Jaha laho taha loho, laha loho pavaddhai.
