Dhammapada · 3.8
Kumbhūpamaṃ kāyamimaṃ viditvā, nagarūpamaṃ cittamidaṃ ṭhapetvā;Yodhetha māraṃ paññāvudhena, jitañca rakkhe anivesano siyā.
kumbhupamam kayam-imam viditva, nagarupamam cittam-idam thapetva; yodhetha maram pannavudhena, jitanca rakkhe anivesano siya.
Knowing this body to be fragile as a clay pot, and having established this mind as a fortified city, wage war against Mara with the weapon of wisdom — and having won, guard the victory, without settling-place.
