PART I RIGHTEOUSNESS
CHAPTER 35
RENUNCIATION
341. Whatsoever thing a man hath renounced, from the grief arising from that thing hath he liberated himself.
342. If thou want joy, renounce early : for many are the delights that thou shalt enjoy after renouncing.
343. Crush thou the five senses : and everything in which thou takest delight, give up utterly.
344. To possess nothing, that is the law of the man of vows : the possession of even one thing is a coming back to the snares that he hath left.
345. To those that desire to put an end to their reincarnations, even the body is a superfluity : how much more then are other bonds?
