Dhammacakkapavattana Sutta: Setting in Motion the Wheel of Truth
Therefore friends;
Intensify your training!
Deepen your study!
Arouse enthusiam!
Stir up energy!
Exert effort!
for the understanding of the yet not undertstood,
for the realization of the yet unrealized states,
for the attaining of the yet unattained stages,
for the reaching of the yet unreached levels,
Do not let Mara the Evil One find you sleeping,
since then this end-maker will sweep you away!
