Clean up One should not kill a being or take what is not given; should not tell a lie or be a drinker of strong drink; should abstain from uncelibacy, the sexual act; should not eat at night, the wrong time of day; should not wear a garland or use a scent; should sleep on a pallet, a mat spread on the ground — for this eight-factored Uposatha has been proclaimed by the Awakened One to lead to the end of suffering and stress. The moon and sun, both fair to see, shedding radiance wherever they go, & scattering darkness as they move through space, brighten the sky, illumining the quarters. Within their range is found wealth: pearl, crystal, beryl, lucky-gem, platinum, nugget-gold, and the refined gold called 'Hataka.' Yet they — like the light of all stars when compared with the moon — aren't worth one sixteenth of the eight-factor! ed Uposatha. So whoever — man or woman — is endowed with the virtues of the eight-factored Uposatha, having done meritorious deeds, productive of bliss, beyond reproach, goes to the heavenly state.
