169. Practice the good teaching; don't practice the bad one! One living in truth dwells happily, both in this world and in the next one.



170.As if one would see a bubble,as if one would see a mirage, who observes the world like that, the King of Death does not see him.



171. come and look at this world, similar to a beautiful king's chariot. Where the fools sink down, for those, who understand, there is no attacment.



172. who has been formerly negligent, but later is not, illuminates this world like a moon freed from cloud.



173. Who covers his evil deeds with good ones, illuminates this world like a moon freed from cloud.



174. Blind is this world. Just a few can see clearly here. Few go to heaven, like a bird released from a snare.



175. Swans travel on the path of the sun. People travel through space by supernatural powers. Wise ones are guided away from the world, having conquered Mara with his army.



176. For the person, who ha transgressed the one law (of truthfulness) and is speaking falsely, and has rejected the othe world, there is no evil that could not be done.



177. Selfish ones do not get to the world of the gods. Fools do not praise giving. And the wise one enjoys giving.Just because of that he is happy hereafter.



178. From sole sovereignty over the earth, or from going to heaven, from lordship oner the whole world, the fruit of Entering the Stream is the best.
