2.39. Usabha
BJT 197“Draping over my shoulder a robe the color of a young mango shoot, I sat on the elephant's neck and entered the village for alms.
BJT 198After climbing down from the elephant, I then felt a sense of urgency. Proud before, I became peaceful and attained the exhaustion of the defilements.”
Thus spoke the venerable elder Usabha.
The verses of the elder Usabha.
