I- Yamakavagga, The Pairs
2- Matthakundali Vatthu
Manopubbangama dhamma, manosettha manomaya;
manasa ce pasannena, bhasati va karoti va;
tato nam sukha1 manveti, chayava anapayini.
All mental phenomena have mind as their forerunner; they have mind as their chief; they are mind-made. If one speaks or acts with a pure mind, happiness (sukha) follows him like a shadow that never leaves him.
