## The Great Renunciation
[21]
[22]
The same upright and pure Dharma abides. Nirvana is the ultimate goal, for the purified and the pure.
(Mahapratyakhyana, Gatha 23) One does not become purified with all the impurities, as it is said in the teachings of the wise. One becomes purified of all impurities by abandoning the impurities.
(Mahapratyakhyana, Gatha 24) Nor does the Tathagata, nor the Asanga, nor the wicked one, nor the one who is angry, do anything wrong. The wicked one, like a snake, is full of poison and anger.
(Mahapratyakhyana, Gatha 27)
