    controlled in senses, discreet, not stubborn, not greedily attach to family!

    sukhino vā khemino hontu - sabbe sattā bhavantu sukhitattā !

    One should not commit a slight wrong, that wise persons might censure;
    May all be happy and secure. May all beings be happy-minded!

    Not falling into wrong views,


    virtuous, and endowed with insight;
    giving up attachment to sense-pleasures,
    one is not again subject to be conceived in a womb birth!
