408. Him I call indeed a Brâhmana who utters true speech, instructive and free from harshness, so that he offend no one.

   409. Him I call indeed a Brâhmana who takes nothing in the world that is not given him, be it long or short, small or large, good or bad.

   410. Him I call indeed a Brâhmana who fosters no desires for this world or for the next, has no inclinations, and is unshackled.

DHAMMAPADA, Chapter 26. THE BRÂHMANA (ARHAT).
