Sirimitta

Free of anger and hostility,
free of deceit, and rid of slander;
that’s how such a mendicant
doesn’t grieve after passing away.
Free of anger and hostility,
free of deceit, and rid of slander;
that’s how a mendicant with sense doors always guarded
doesn’t grieve after passing away.

free of deceit, and rid of slander;

doesn’t grieve after passing away.

free of deceit, and rid of slander;

doesn’t grieve after passing away.
Free of anger and hostility,
free of deceit, and rid of slander;
that’s how a mendicant of good wisdom,
doesn’t grieve after passing away.
Whoever has faith in the Realized One,
unwavering and well grounded;
whose ethical conduct is good,
praised and loved by the noble ones;
who has confidence in the Saṅgha,
and correct view:
they’re said to be prosperous;
their life is not in vain.
So let the wise devote themselves
to faith, ethical behavior,
confidence, and insight into the teaching,
remembering the instructions of the Buddhas.
