ekku mueppiņu dhammu para “Youth life, a wife, a house, abundant riches, consider these as temporal and give back Sītā, king Nisīndra!!3 A dull-minded person goes after another man's wealth and wife, and sins with alcohol. You, however, are skilled in all the scriptures and arts, a bee at the lotusfeet of Muni Suvrata! Knowing this, you still] do not return Janaka's daughter. Have you not heard the anuprekṣā on transitoriness? Who belongs to whom? It is all illusion and darkness. Life is as ephemeral as a drop of water. Success is like an ocean wave. Luster is as fleeting as a flash of lightening. Youth is like the surge of a mountain stream. Love is like an image from a dream. Possessions resemble the wealth of rainbow. One moment, it is there, half a moment later, it vanishes. The body decays, the life span shortens. It is like a mass of water: once it has passed it never comes again. A house, a following, kingship, prosperity, life, wonderful glory, they are transitory. When one relinquishes (them), only the doctrine remains.15
