1.Renunciating a thing liberates
one from grief.
2.Early renouncing earns many
delights for harmless.
3.Renounce by controlling desire-yielding
five sense-organs together
4.Renouncing, righteous, desiring, falling
back as unwise.
5.Banishing birth-sins body surplus
why rebirth more?
6.Renouncing self, ignoring “I
mine” above divine.
7.Sorrows embrace pridy, unleaving
I and mine.
8.Supreme, renounced, rest are
snared in desire-net.
9.Craveless ends reincarnation otherwise
instability continues ever.
10.Fasten thy to nature
to serve desires.
