Verses of the Senior Monks 2.26
The Book of the Twos
Chapter Three
Puṇṇamāsa (2nd)
I gave up the five hindrances
for the sake of sanctuary from the yoke.
I took Dhamma as a mirror
for knowing and seeing myself.
I examined this body,
all of it, inside and out.
Internally and externally
my body appeared hollow.
