A verse shared with you

Dhammapada · 25.10

Siñca bhikkhu imaṃ nāvaṃ, sittā te lahumessati;Chetvā rāgañca dosañca, tato nibbānamehisi.

Sinca bhikkhu imam navam, sitta te lahumessati; Chetva raganca dosanca, tato nibbanamehisi.

Bail out this boat, bhikkhu! Bailed out, it will move lightly for you. Having cut off lust and hatred, you will then reach nibbana.
