Passive In Pain

   277. ‘All created things perish,’ he who knows and sees this becomes passive in pain; this is the way to purity.

278. ‘All created things are grief and pain,’ he who knows and sees this becomes passive in pain; this is the way that leads to purity.

279. ‘All forms are unreal,’ he who knows and sees this becomes passive in pain; this is the way that leads to purity.
