He disperses all delusion -- as the rising of the sun, the dark

Greed causes harm.
Greed provokes the mind.
People don't realize itas a danger born from within.
A person, when greedy,doesn't know his own welfare;
when greedy,
doesn't see Dhamma.
Overcome with greed,
he's in the dark, blind.
But when one, abandoning greed,
feels no greed

for what would merit greed,

greed gets shed from him -- like a drop of water off a lotus leaf.

Aversion causes harm.
Aversion provokes the mind.
People don't realize itas a danger born from within.
A person, when aversive,
doesn't know his own welfare;
when aversive,
doesn't see Dhamma.
Overcome with aversionhe's in the dark, blind.
But when one, abandoning aversion,
feels no aversion

for what would merit aversion,
aversion drops away from him -- like a palm leaf from its stem.

Delusion causes harm.
Delusion provokes the mind.
People don't realize itas a danger born from within.
A person, when deluded,doesn't know his own welfare;
when deluded,
doesn't see Dhamma.
Overcome with delusionhe's in the dark, blind.
But when one, abandoning delusion,
feels no delusion

for what would merit delusion,
he disperses all delusion -- as the rising of the sun, the dark.
