Theragāthā
Verses of the Senior Monks
Chapter of the Twos
2.26. Puṇṇamāsa
I abandoned the five hindrances
So I could realise security from the yoke;
And I picked up the Dhamma as a mirror,
For knowing and seeing myself.I checked over this body
All of it, inside and out.
Internally and externally,
My body looked vacant.
