- c. 50 BC, The Buddha, Dhammapada(pāḷi), Yamakavagga, page 26; republished in The Eighteenth Book in the Suttanta-Pitaka: Khuddaka-Nikāya[1], Colombo, 2009:
- 3. අක්කොච්ඡි මං අවධි මං අජිනි මං අහාසි මෙ
යෙ තං උපනය්හන්ති වෙරං තෙසං න සම්මති- 3. akkocchi maṃ avadhi maṃ ajini maṃ ahāsi me
ye taṃ upanayhanti veraṃ tesaṃ na sammati - He abused me, he struck me, he defeated me, he robbed me.
Hatred does not subside for those who nurse grudges thus.
