Dhammapada 101 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


8 - Sahassavaggo, Thousands
2 - Bahiyadaruciriya Vatthu

Sahassamapi ce gatha, anatthapadasamhita;
ekam gathapadam seyyo, yam sutva upasammati.
101: Better than a thousand verses that are senseless and unconnected with the realization of Nibbana, is a single verse, if on hearing it one is calmed.
