Vajjiputtattheragāthā
Vajjiputta (2nd)
“Rukkhamūlagahanaṁ pasakkiya, You’ve left for the jungle, the root of a tree,
Nibbānaṁ hadayasmiṁ opiya; with extinguishment in your heart.
Jhāya gotama mā ca pamādo, Practice absorption, Gotama, don’t be negligent!
Kiṁ te biḷibiḷikā karissatī”ti. What is this hullabaloo to you?
