Abhanga 357Confession and Sin

The Sense of Sin

English Translation · I.P. 357

IWOULD gladly know the truth about the soul, but my mind drags me away, with ungracious obstinacy. I can make no progress because it is so narrow; my conduct is altogether crazy. We can taste nothing till the right time comes; I have made up my mind to this. Tuka says, Your words serve to disclose you: why should I make you speak time after time ?

Tr. J. Nelson Fraser & K.B. Marathe (1909)
