On the First Day of Fasting, the Buddha Said to Me:


- Give up on one thing, monks, and I promise you deliverance !

- Which one?

- Lust, by which men are led to evil places, craving... By rightly discerning that desire, those who see clearly let go, and are thus delivered...

From the First Chapter of the Itivuttaka
