�Ta.m ki.m ma~n~natha, Saa.lhaa, atthi alobho� ti?
�So what do you think, Salha, does non-greed exist?�

�Evam, bhante.�
�Yes, venerable sir.�

�Anabhijjhaa�ti kho aha.m, Saa.lhaa, etamattha.m
vadaami. Aluddho kho aya.m, Saa.lhaa, anabhijjhaaluu

�I call it non-covetousness, Salha. A non-greedy
person is a non-covetous person, and does not kill
living beings, does not take what is not given, does
not commit adultery, does not speak falsely, and does
not encourage others to do likewise, which will bring
him a long time of welfare and happiness.�

�Evam, bhante.�
�Yes, venerable sir.�

Metta,
John
