I- Yamakavagga, The Pairs
1- Cakkhupalatthera Vatthu
Manopubbangama dhamma, manosettha manomaya;All mental phenomena have mind as their forerunner; they have mind as their chief; they are mind-made. If one speaks or acts with an evil mind, 'dukkha' follows him just as the wheel follows the hoofprint of the ox that draws the cart.
manasa ce padutthena, bhasati va karoti va;
tato nam dukkhamanveti, cakkamva vahato padam.
