5 - Balavagga, The Fool
14 - Vanavasitissasamanera Vatthu
Anna hi labhupanisa, anna nibbanagamini;75: Indeed, the path that leads to worldly gain is one and the Path that leads to Nibbana is another. Fully comprehending this, the bhikkhu, the disciple of the Buddha, should not take delight in worldly gain and honour, but devote himself to solitude, detachment and the realization of Nibbana.
evametam abhinnaya, bhikkhu Buddhassa savako;
sakkaram nabhinandeyya, vivekamanubruhaye.
