Nāgavagga · The Elephant · Gāthā 328
Aññāya'si patiipanno, sabbapāpassa akkharī; Uyhaṭṭho ca te bhāri, satthā ānandasambhavo.
Aññāya'si patipanno, sabbapāpassa akkharī; uyhaṭṭho ca te bhāri, satthā ānandasambhavo.
You have understood and walk the path, destroying all evil. Your burden has been abandoned. The teacher is born from joy.
Aññāya’si — having known. Knowledge is not theoretical, it is experiential. Sabbapāpassa akkharī — destroyer of all stains, all impurities.
Ānandasambhavo — born from joy. The authentic teacher does not arise from agonizing effort, but from the joy (ānanda) that springs when the burden falls.
