(1142) 21. ‘Therefore, as I am worn out and feeble, my body does not go there, but in my thoughts I always go there, for my mind, O Braéhmama, is joined to him, (1143) 22. ‘Lying in the mud (of lusts) wriggling, I jumped from island to island; then I saw the perfectly Enlightened, who has crossed the stream, and is free from passion.’ (1144) 23.
