“පඤ්චිමේ, භික්ඛවේ, රුක්ඛමූලිකා. කතමේ පඤ්ච? මන්දත්තා මෝමූහත්තා රුක්ඛමූලිකෝ හෝති …පේ… ඉදමත්ථිතංයේව නිස්සාය රුක්ඛමූලිකෝ හෝති. ඉමේ ඛෝ, භික්ඛවේ, පඤ්ච රුක්ඛමූලිකා”ති.
“Bhikkhus, there are these five kinds of people who dwell at the root of a tree. What five? A person may dwell at the root of a tree because of stupidity … corrupt wishes … madness … because it is praised by the Buddhas … or for the sake of having few wishes … These are the five kinds of people who dwell at the root of a tree.”
