  • Men are tied up to their families and possessions more helplessly than in a prison. There is an occasion for the prisoner to be released, but householders entertain no desire to be relieved from the ties of family. When a man's passion is aroused nothing prevents him from ruining himself. Even into the jaws of a tiger will he jump. Those who are thus drowned in the filth of passion are called the ignorant. Those who are able to overcome it are saintly Arhats.

This deed is still more distant from them than the most distant stars - and yet they have done it themselves.

  • There is a saying in Tibetan that "at the door of the miserable rich man sleeps the contented beggar".
