The Two Extremes | November 12, 2014
These are the two extremes, O bhikshus (Religious Wanderers) which
the man who has given up the world ought not to follow—the habitual
practice, on the one hand, of self-indulgence which is unworthy, vain
and fit only for the worldly-minded—and the habitual practice, on the
other hand, of self-mortification which is painful, useless and
unprofitable.
