Verse 242: Unchastity is the taint in a woman; niggardliness is the taint in a giver. Taints, indeed, are all evil things, both in this world and the next.Verse 243: A worse taint than these is ignorance, the worst of all taints. Destroy this one taint and become taintless, O monks!(Translated by Acharya Buddharakkhita) Our podcasts: https://podcast.sirimangalo.org/ How To Meditate Booklet: https://htm.sirimangalo.org/ Our Meditation Community and At-Home Meditation Course signup page: https://meditation.sirimangalo.org/ Our Website: https://www.sirimangalo.org/
