Kutika Sutta

Translation by Bhikkhuni Uppalavanna


 * Haven't you a hut? Haven't you a nest?
 * Haven't you a brood? Are you free from bonds?"
 * "I do not have a hut, nor do I have a nest.
 * Neither do I have a brood. I am free from bonds."
 * "To what do I say is a hut? What is the nest?
 * What is the brood and what is the bond? "
 * "Mother, I say is the hut, wife is the nest.
 * Sons are the brood and craving is the bond."
 * "Good! You, do not have a hut and do not have a nest.
 * Good! You do not have a brood and is free from bonds."
 * Sons are the brood and craving is the bond."
 * "Good! You, do not have a hut and do not have a nest.
 * Good! You do not have a brood and is free from bonds."
 * Good! You do not have a brood and is free from bonds."
