Bandhurattheragāthā

Bandhura

“Nāhaṁ etena atthiko,
I have no need of this—

Sukhito dhammarasena tappito;
I’m happy and satisfied with the sweet teaching.

Pitvā rasaggamuttamaṁ,
I’ve drunk the best, the supreme nectar:

Na ca kāhāmi visena santhavan”ti.
I won’t go near poison.

… Bandhuro thero ….
