While wandering on
I went to hell;
	went again & again
to the world of the hungry shades;
	stayed countless times, long,
in the pain of the animal womb;
	enjoyed
the human state;
went to heaven
	from time to time;
settled in the elements of form,
the elements of formlessness,
neither-perception, perception-less.

Ways of taking birth
are now known:
	devoid of essence,
	unstable,
	conditioned,
	always driven along.
Knowing them
as born from my self,
mindful
I went right to peace.
