Story
On the day after His arrival in His birthplace Kapilavatthu immediately after His Enlightenment, the Buddha went in quest of alms in the city. King Suddhodana, His father, hearing that his son was begging alms in the city, indignantly ran up to Him and said that He was disgracing him by begging alms in the streets where He formerly used to travel in golden palanquins. Thereupon the Buddha remarked that it was the custom of His predecessors to go seeking alms from door to door, and He uttered these verses.

A Journey of Self-Discovery
By Ven. U Revata
"The Buddha never compelled anybody to have blind faith in Him. He just exhorted us to depend on our own wisdom.
It is not because we are born as humans that we become wise or foolish. It is because we can bring our defilements under control that we become wise, and it is because we can’t bring our defilements under control that we become foolish.
We all have both good and bad qualities.
Snakes, chickens, and pigs are not created for you to eat. It is in such existences that you yourself have been born before. We can’t harm anybody without harming ourselves.
We can’t disturb others without disturbing ourselves.
Patience means accepting. Very beautiful! Accepting both the desirable and the undesirable is the perfection of patience.
You make friends with the defilements all the time, but the defilements never treat you as a friend in return. They treat you as an enemy.
The Buddha never says, 'Come and believe'. He says, ‘Come and see; the wise can know, the wise can see’. ‘One who sees the Dhamma, sees me. One who sees me, sees the Dhamma’."

Hiri and Ottappa, Guardians of the World
“These two bright things, mendicants, protect the world. What two? Conscience and prudence. If these two bright things did not protect the world, there would be no recognition of the status of mother, aunts, or wives and partners of tutors and respected people. The world would become dissolute, like goats and sheep, chickens and pigs, and dogs and jackals. But because the two bright things protect the world, there is recognition of the status of mother, aunts, and wives and partners of tutors and respected people.”
Anguttara Nikaya 2.9 : Lokapala Sutta

4. Yathà bubbulakam passe
yathà passe marãcikam
Evam lokam avekkhantam
maccuràjà na passati. 170.
LIKE A BUBBLE IS THIS WORLD
4. Just as one would look upon a bubble, just as one would look upon a mirage 4 - if a person thus looks upon the world, the King of Death sees him not. 170.
Story
Reflecting on a mirage and on bubbles of water, many monks attained Arahantship. Concerning their attainment, the Buddha uttered this verse.
