Anekajati Samasaram - Sandhavissam Amibbisam 
I*/ •'• 
Ghakaraham Garesanto-DuJyfaajati Punappunam 
Throubh many a birth have I wondered in samsara seeking for 
the house-builder, but faild to trace him. Woeful is it to be born 
again and again. 
Dhammapada - Jara vagga-
Appendix B 
Attanam ce piyam janna-rakkheyya nam surakkhitan 
Tinnamannataram y amam-patij aggeyya paneito. 
If one holds one self dear, let him watch himself carefully. Let 
the wise man keep vigil during every one of the three watches of 
the might. 
Dhammapada - Atta Vagga. 
Appendix -C 
Manopubbangama dlianmia-Manowettha manomaya 
Manassa ce padutthena-bhasati va karotiva 
Tato nam dukkahamanveti cakkah\& vahato padam 
All thoughts begin in the mind, mind is supreme and mind-made 
are they. If one speaks or acts with impure mind pain follows 
him like the wheel the hoof of the ox.
