How
joyful to look upon the Awakened,
And
to keep the company with the Wise.
Follow
then the Shinning Ones,
The Wise,
The Awakened,
The Loving,
For they know how to work and forebear.
But
if you cannot find Friend
or Master to go with you,
Travel on alone -
Like a king who has given away his kingdom,
Like an elephant in the forest.
If
the traveler can find
A Virtuous and Wise companion,
Let him go with him joyfully,
And overcome the dangers of the way.
Follow
them,
As the moon follows the path of the stars.
