Theragāthā — Versos dos Monges Anciãos — 2.11 — Mahācunda

1It’s from eagerness to learn that learning grows;
when you’re learned, wisdom grows;
by wisdom, you know the goal;
knowing the goal brings happiness.

2You should frequent remote lodgings
and practice to be released from fetters.
If you don’t find enjoyment there,
live in the Saṅgha, self-protected and mindful.
