Verses of the Senior Nuns 2.9

The Book of the Twos

Abhayā

1 Abhayā, the body is fragile,

yet ordinary people are attached to it.

I’ll lay down the body,

aware and mindful.

2 Though subject to so many painful things,

I have, through my love of diligence,

reached the ending of craving,

and fulfilled the Buddha’s instructions.
