The Thoroughbred: a past life story
“Yadā yadā yattha yadā,
Whenever whenever, wherever whenever,
yattha yattha yadā yadā;
wherever wherever, whenever whenever:
Ājañño kurute vegaṁ,
the thoroughbred drives onward,
hāyanti tattha vāḷavā”ti.
while the geldings fade right there.
Ājaññajātakaṁ catutthaṁ.
