Joyous words ( Udana) of the Buddha after becoming Fully Enlightened:

"Anekajāti samsāram, sandhāvissamanibbisam,
Gahakārakamṃ gavesanto, dukkhā jāti punappunam.

Gahakārakam ditthosi, puna gehamṃ na kāhasi,
Sabbā te phāsukā bhaggā, gahakūtaṃ visamkhatam,
Visamkhāragataṃ cittam, tanhānaṃ khayamajjhagā."

-- (Dhammapada 153-154, Jaravaggo)

🌷 "I have taken countless births running in search of the creator of this house [body], but all I achieved was misery in every birth.

O creator of this house, now you have been seen.

All your building materials (sankhāras) have been destroyed; another house (birth) can no longer be built by you.

The mind has become totally purified, all sankhāras and cravings are removed.
