1.65. Bondage

ā€œBy what is the world held in bondage?
What is its means of travelling about?
What is it that one must forsake
To cut off all bondage?ā€

ā€œThe world is held in bondage by delight;
Thought is its means of travelling about.
Craving is what one must forsake
To cut off all bondage.ā€
