Description

Verse 292
The cankers only increase for those who are arrogant and heedless, who leave undone what should be done and do what should not be done.

Verse 293
The cankers cease for those mindful and clearly comprehending ones who always earnestly practice mindfulness of the body, who do not resort to what should not be done, and steadfastly pursue what should be done.
