मेघियसुत्तं

‘‘खुद्दा वितक्‍का सुखुमा वितक्‍का,

अनुगता [अनुग्गता (सी॰ क॰ अट्ठकथायं पाठन्तरं)] मनसो उप्पिलावा [उब्बिलापा (सी॰ स्या॰ पी॰)]।

एते अविद्वा मनसो वितक्‍के,

हुरा हुरं धावति भन्तचित्तो॥

‘‘एते च विद्वा मनसो वितक्‍के,

आतापियो संवरती सतीमा।

अनुगते मनसो उप्पिलावे,

असेसमेते पजहासि बुद्धो’’ति॥ पठमं।

Little thoughts, subtle thoughts,

when followed, stir up the heart.

Not comprehending the thoughts of the heart,

one runs here & there,

the mind out of control.

But comprehending the thoughts of the heart,

one who is ardent, mindful,

restrains them.

When, followed, they stir up the heart,

one awakened

lets them go without trace.

Buddha
