Through the round of many births I roamed without reward,
without rest, seeking the house-builder.
Painful is birth again & again. House-builder, you're seen!
You will not build a house again.A ll your rafters broken, the ridge pole destroyed, gone to the Unformed, the mind has come to the end of craving.
-Dhammapada, 11, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
