Dhammapada 37 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


3 - Cittavagga, The Mind
4 - Samgharakkhitatthera Vatthu

Durangamam ekacaram,
asariram guhasayam;

ye cittam samyamissanti,
mokkhanti marabandhana.

37: The mind wanders far and moves about alone: it is non-material; it lies in the cave (chamber) of the heart. Those who control their mind will be free from the bonds of Mara.
