Anekajti Gth
Anekajti sasra, sandhvissa anibbisa; Gahakra gavesanto, dukkh jti punappuna. Gahakraka dihosi, puna geha na khasi; Sabb te phsuk bhagg, gahaka visakhata; Visakhra gata citta, tahna khayamajjhag.

Through Many Births

Through many births I wandered in sasra; seeking, but not finding The builder of this house, painful is repeated existence! Householder! you are seen now, you shall build no house again. Your rafters are broken! Your ridge-pole is shattered. To dissolution goes my mind. Achieved is the destruction of craving.

Reflections for One Gone Forth

These ten things, monks, should be constantly reflected upon by one gone forth. My status has changed should be reflected on constantly by one gone forth. My very life depends on the gifts of others should be reflected upon constantly by one gone forth. I should behave differently to others should be reflected on constantly by one gone forth. Do I blame myself for any moral lapses? should be reflected on constantly by one gone forth. Do my wise fellow monks blame me for moral lapses? should be reflected on constantly by one gone forth.

Loving-kindness Meditation
May I be free from enmity, may I be free from ill-will, may I be free from affliction, may I be happy, may I be free from suffering, may I not be parted from the good fortune I have attained, as owner of my kamma. May the community in this monastery May the guardian deities of this monastery be free from enmity, may they be free from ill-will, may they be free from affliction, may they be happy, may they be free from suffering, may they not be parted from the good fortune they have attained, as owners of their kamma. May our supporters who provide the four requisites May our parents, teacher, relatives and friends be free from enmity, may they be free from ill-will, may they be free from affliction, may they be happy, may they be free from suffering, may they not be parted from the good fortune they have attained, as owners of their kamma. May all living things, all breathing thing, all beings, all persons, all individuals, all women, all men, all noble ones, all worldlings, all deities, all human beings, and all those destined for hell be free from enmity, may they be free from ill-will, may they be free from affliction, may they be happy, may they be free from suffering, may they not be parted from the good fortune they have attained, as owners of their kamma. In the east, in the south, in the west, in the north, in the northeast, in the southeast, in the southwest, in the north west, below and above; may all living things, all breathing thing, all beings, all persons, all individuals, all women, all men, all noble ones, all worldlings, all

Above to the highest heaven, below to the deepest hell, in all world systems may all beings living on the earth be free from affliction and ill-will, may they be free from suffering and harm. Above to the highest heaven, below to the deepest hell, in all world systems may all beings living in the water be free from affliction and ill-will, may they be free from suffering and harm. Above to the highest heaven, below to the deepest hell, in all world systems may all beings living in the sky be free from affliction and ill-will, may they be free from suffering and harm. I have formerly done meritorious deeds, recited the protection discourses and practised meditation on loving-kindness. By the power of this merit may all beings, realising the Buddhas teaching which leads to happiness, attain the supreme bliss of nibbna which gets rid of sorrow, grief and despair. Long may the teaching of the Buddha endure. May all beings respect and practise righteousness. May the god of rain perform his duty in due season. May the rulers follow the example of the righteous kings and protect their subjects with kindness, like their own sons and daughters.
By this practice I pay homage to the Buddha. By this practice I pay homage to the Dhamma. By this practice I pay homage to the Sagha.

By this practice I shall be liberated from birth, aging, disease, and death. May my merit destroy all defilements. May my merit be a condition for nibbna. We share this heap of merit with all beings.
