Dhammapada 115 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


8 - Sahassavaggo, Thousands

Yo ca vassasatam jive,
apassam dhammamuttamam; 

ekaham jivitam seyyo,
passato dhammamuttamam.
115: Better than a hundred years in the life of a person who does not comprehend the Noble Dhamma (Dhammamuttamam), is a day in the life of one who comprehends the Noble Dhamma.
