Brahmadattattheragāthā

“Akkodhassa kuto kodho,

dantassa samajīvino;

Sammadaññāvimuttassa,

upasantassa tādino.

Tasseva tena pāpiyo,

yo kuddhaṁ paṭikujjhati;

Kuddhaṁ appaṭikujjhanto,

saṅgāmaṁ jeti dujjayaṁ.

Ubhinnamatthaṁ carati,

attano ca parassa ca;

Paraṁ saṅkupitaṁ ñatvā,

yo sato upasammati.

Ubhinnaṁ tikicchantaṁ taṁ,

attano ca parassa ca;

Janā maññanti bāloti,

ye dhammassa akovidā.

Uppajje te sace kodho,

āvajja kakacūpamaṁ;

Uppajje ce rase taṇhā,

puttamaṁsūpamaṁ sara.

Sace dhāvati cittaṁ te,

kāmesu ca bhavesu ca;

Khippaṁ niggaṇha satiyā,

kiṭṭhādaṁ viya duppasun”ti.
