Sanskrit Verse

यथागारं दुश्छन्नं वृष्टिः समतिविध्यति । एवं अभावितं चित्तं रागः समतिविध्यति ॥

यथागारं सुच्छन्नं वृष्टिर्न समति विध्यति । एवं सुभावितं चित्तं रागो न समति विध्यति ॥

Bhikkhu Ānandajoti's translation

Just as the rain penetrates a house with thatching that is poor, so passion penetrates a mind that is undeveloped.

Just as rain does not penetrate a house with thatching that is good, so passion cannot penetrate a mind that is well-developed.
