THE KURAL

356. Behold the man who hath studied deeply and hath realised the Truth : he shall enter the path that leadeth not again into this world.

357. Verily those that have meditated upon and attained to the Truth need not think at all of future incarnations.

358. It is the part of Wisdom to desire to escape the folly called birth, and to aim at realising the Supreme and the Good.

359. Behold the man who understandeth the means of his salvation and laboureth to conquer all attachments: the ills that he is yet to suffer depart from him.

360. As desire and anger and delusion leave a man, his ills also follow their pace and slowly melt away.
