Linked Discourses 1.29

3. A Sword

Four Wheels

1 “Four are its wheels, and nine its doors;

it’s stuffed full, bound with greed,

and born from a bog.

Great hero, how will I keep going?”

2 “Having cut the strap and harness—

the wicked desire and greed—

and having plucked out craving, root and all:

that’s how you will keep going.”
