Context of this chapter
Therigatha II
Translated from the Pali by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
For free distribution only.
II.3 -- Sumangala's Mother
So freed! So freed!
So thoroughly freed am I --
from my pestle,
my shameless husband
& his sun-shade making,
my moldy old pot
with its water-snake smell.
Aversion & passion
I cut with a chop.
Having come to the foot of a tree,
I meditate, absorbed in the bliss:
"What bliss!"
