Verse from the Khuddaka
There are beings
who travel the difficult path
across the dangerous swamp
of defiling passions,
traverse the ocean of delusion
through the darkness of ignorance,
and go beyond.
They are sustained
by wise contemplation,
secure in freedom from doubt,
liberated;
such beings are great indeed.
