About this episode

Dhammapada verse(s) in Pali:


Verse 28
pamādaṃ appamādena, yadā nudati paṇḍito.
paññāpāsādamāruyha, asoko sokiniṃ pajaṃ.
pabbataṭṭhova bhūmaṭṭhe, dhīro bāle avekkhati.



English translation of verse(s):


Verse 28
Just as one upon the summit of a mountain beholds the groundlings, even so when the wise man casts away heedlessness by heedfulness and ascends the high tower of wisdom, this sorrowless sage beholds the sorrowing and foolish multitude.


(Translated by Acharya Buddharakkhita)
