5. Anabhiratijātaka

Dissatisfaction: a past life story

“Yathā nadī ca pantho ca,
Just like rivers and roads,

pānāgāraṁ sabhā papā;
taverns, hotels, and pubs,

Evaṁ lokitthiyo nāma,
are those called women in the world.

nāsaṁ kujjhanti paṇḍitā”ti.
Sages do not get angry with them.

Anabhiratijātakaṁ pañcamaṁ.
