The advisor, meditator & go-between These three persons always cause discord & pain. The free man should be like mute taking no side And on the silent mountain he should remain. Property, kinsmen and native-land, These three make one fall into Saha-realm. One who would cross the river of sin, Should cut off the long attachment-chain. Self-conceit, pretense, and tricks, These three make ones falling quick. He who would ascend upward, Should keep his mind straightforward. Scholarship, talk and discussion, Derive from pride-causation. He who would practice the Dharma Should be humble and next to nothing. Householder, work and career, These three disturb Samadhi. He who would gain the wisdom. Should keep only his Bodhi. Master, disciple, and learning, These three may cause the more pride. He who would like the Dharma Should be humble and kiss the Rod. Sorcery, magic and To Tze, Draw a yogi to evil deeds. He who would like the Dharma Think of the sound of Jolmo birds. -Malrepas 9th song of realization
