Non-Possessive And The Non-Attached Person Is A Holy Man

I do not call him a holy man because of his lineage or high-born mother.
If he is full of impeding attachments, he is just a supercilious man.
But who is free from impediments and clinging
Ñ him do I call a holy man.
– Dhammapada XXVI. Brahmanavagga: The Holy Man :: Verse 396
