The Vowed Feast: a past life story9. Āyācitabhattajātaka
If you would be released, after death might you be released,“Sace mucce pecca mucce,because releasing binds.Muccamāno hi bajjhati;That’s not how the attentive are released;Na hevaṁ dhīrā muccanti,such release is the fool’s bondage.Mutti bālassa bandhanan”ti.
