no skillful deeds, no deeds that allay your fears. This world is swept away by aging, by illness, by death. With the world thus swept away by aging, illness, & death, any restraint of body, speech, & intellect practiced here will be oneâs shelter, cave, island, & refuge after death in the world beyond." Itâs swept along: life, its next-to-nothing span. For one swept on by aging no shelters exist. Keeping sight of this danger in death, do merit-deeds that bring bliss. When youâre restrained here in body, speech, & awareness; when you make merit while still alive: That will be for your bliss after death.
