Dhammapada 369, 370


O Bhikshu, empty this boat! If emptied, it will go quickly; having cut off passion and hatred you will go to Nirvana. 

Cut off the five senses, leave the five, rise above the five. 

A Bhikshu, who has escaped from the five fetters, he is called Oghatinna, "saved from the flood."
