Chetva Sutta

Translation by Bhikkhuni Uppalavanna

That deity standing on a side said this stanza in the presence of the Blessed One:


 * "Having cut what, does one sleep well and not grieve?
 * The destruction of what one thing, does Gotama like?"


 * "Having cut anger one sleeps well and does not grieve.
 * O! god, the destruction of the poisoned root and the sweet top
 * Of anger, the noble ones praise, as the state free from grief."
