Description



Kodhaṃ chetvā sukhaṃ seti.

Kodhaṃ chetvā na socati.

Kodhassa visamūlassa, madhuraggassa devate

vadhaṃ ariyā pasaṃsanti,

tañhi chetvā na socatī.

Listen



Having killed anger you sleep in ease.

Having killed anger you do not grieve.

The noble ones praise the slaying of anger

-- with its honeyed crest & poison root --

for having killed it you do not grieve.



Saṃyutta Nikāya 1.71
