"'The world is swept away. It does not endure': This is the first
Dhamma summary stated by the Blessed One who knows & sees, worthy
& rightly self-awakened. Having known & seen & heard it, I
went forth from the home life into homelessness.
"'The world is without shelter, without protector': This is the second Dhamma summary...
"'The world is without ownership. One has to pass on, leaving everything behind': This is the third Dhamma summary...
"'The world is insufficient, insatiable, a slave to craving': This is the fourth Dhamma summary...
"These, great king, are the four Dhamma summaries stated by the
Blessed One who knows & sees, worthy & rightly self-awakened.
Having known & seen & heard them, I went forth from the home
life into homelessness."
