Yogā ve jāyatī bhūri,

ayogā bhūrisaṅkhayo.

Etaṃ dvedhāpathaṃ ñatvā bhavāya vibhavāya ca,

tathāttānaṃ niveseyya yathā bhūri pavaḍḍhati.

Listen

Wisdom springs from meditation;

without meditation wisdom wanes.

Having known these two paths of progress and decline,

let one so conduct oneself that one's wisdom may increase.

Dhammapada 20.282
