"There is neither a sinner nor a virtuous one
by AkhaEnglish version by Krishnaditya
"There is neither a sinner nor a virtuous one."
One who understands this is a true saint.
The wheel of Time turns by its own nature;
And thus sponteneous is the process of creation, dissolution.
Knowing this, Akha, go and dissolve yourself;
And avoid the babble of repeated trips.
