"Na paresam vilomani
na paresam katakatam
attanova avekkheyya
katani akatani ca."
( #Dhammapada , Paveyya ajivaka Vatthu)
One should not consider the faults of others, nor their doing or not doing good or bad deeds.
One should consider only whether one has done or not done good or bad deeds.

"Saccaṁ bhaṇe, na kujjheyya,
dajjāppasmim-pi yācito,
etehi tīhi ṭhānehi
gacche devāna’ santike."
(Dhammapada, Mahamoggallanapanha Vatthu)
One should utter the truth.
One should not be angry.
One should give even
from a scanty store to him who asks.
Along these three paths,
one may go to the presence of the gods.

"Yathāpi mūle anupaddave daḷhe,
chinnopi rukkho punareva rūhati;
Evampi taṇhānusaye anūhate,
nibbattatī dukkhamidaṃ punappunaṃ."
(Dhammapada, Tanhavagga)
As roots remain undamaged and strong,
Even a tree, when cut down grows again,
In the same way, as long as the latent tendency of craving is not rooted out,
Dukkha (of birth, ageing, and death) will spring up again and again.

natthi santiparam sukham."

"Atta hi attano natho
ko hi natho paro siya
attana hi sudantena
natham labhati dullabham."
( #Dhammapada , Athma / Atta Vagga )

"Asāre sāramatino
sāre casāradassino
Te sāram nadhigacchanti
micchā sankappagocarā"
( #Dhammapada Yamaka Vagga )
The unessential they imagine as essential,
In the essential, they see as unessential,
they never realise the essence,
who entertain such wrong thoughts.

"Manujassa pamattacārino
taṇhā vaḍḍhati māluvā viya,
so palavatī hurāhuraṁ
phalam-icchaṁ va vanasmi’ vānaro."
(Dhammapada, Taṇhāvaggo)
For a human who lives life heedlessly
craving increases like a clinging creeper,
He rushes from one place to another
like a monkey desiring fruit in the forest.

"Idha tappati pecca tappati
pāpakārī ubhayattha tappati
Pāpam me kataŋ’ti tappati
bhiyyo tappati duggatim gato"
(Dhammapada Verse 17, Devadatta Vatthu)
Agony now, agony hereafter,
the wrongdoer suffers agony in both worlds.
Agonised now by the knowledge that he has done wrong,
he suffers more agony, gone to a state of woe.

"Yathā agāraṁ succhannaṁ vuṭṭhī na samativijjhati,
evaṁ subhāvitaṁ cittaṁ rāgo na samativijjhati."
(Dhammapada, Yamaka Vagga)
Just as rain cannot penetrate a well-roofed house,
So also, passion (raga) cannot penetrate
a mind well-cultivated in Tranquillity and Insight Development (Samatha and Vipassana).
