Theragāthā

Verses of the Senior Monks

Chapter of the Twos

2.43. Brahmā­li

Whose faculties have become serene,
Like horses tamed by a charioteer?
Who has abandoned conceit and defilements,
Becoming such that even the gods envy them?

My faculties have become serene,
Like horses tamed by a charioteer?
I have abandoned conceit and defilements,
Becoming such that even the gods envy me.
