Atha kho idaṁ, bhikkhave, brahmacariyaṁ vussati abhiññatthañceva pariññatthañcā”ti. [¶5] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶6] “The Buddha taught the spiritual life not because of legends, but for the sake of insight and understanding, and because it culminates in extinguishment. > Pali: “Abhiññatthaṁ pariññatthaṁ, brahmacariyaṁ anītihaṁ; Adesayi so bhagavā, nibbānogadhagāminaṁ. [¶7] This is the path followed by the great souls, the great seers. Those who practice it as it was taught by the Buddha doing the Teacher’s bidding, make an end of suffering.” > Pali: Esa maggo mahattehi, anuyāto mahesibhi; Ye ye taṁ paṭipajjanti, yathā buddhena desitaṁ; Dukkhassantaṁ karissanti, satthusāsanakārino”ti.

What two? Being inspired at inspiring places, and making a suitable effort when inspired. When a mendicant possesses these two qualities they’re full of joy and happiness in this very life, and they have laid the groundwork for ending the defilements.” > Pali: “Dvīhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu diṭṭheva dhamme sukhasomanassabahulo viharati, yoni cassa āraddhā hoti āsavānaṁ khayāya. Katamehi dvīhi? Saṁvejanīyesu ṭhānesu saṁvejanena, saṁviggassa ca yoniso padhānena.

On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶16] “At inspiring places an astute person should be inspired; a keen and alert mendicant should examine with wisdom. > Pali: “Saṁvejanīyaṭṭhānesu, saṁvijjetheva paṇḍito; Ātāpī nipako bhikkhu, paññāya samavekkhiya. [¶17] A mendicant living like this, with keen energy, peaceful not restless, devoted to serenity of heart, attains the ending of suffering.” > Pali: Evaṁ vihārī ātāpī, santavutti anuddhato; Cetosamathamanuyutto, khayaṁ dukkhassa pāpuṇe”ti.

The Realized One loves kindness and delights in it, so this thought often occurs to him: ‘Through this behavior, I shall not hurt any creature firm or frail.’ > Pali: “Tathāgataṁ, bhikkhave, arahantaṁ sammāsambuddhaṁ dve vitakkā bahulaṁ samudācaranti— khemo ca vitakko, paviveko ca. Abyāpajjhārāmo, bhikkhave, tathāgato abyāpajjharato.

[¶28] The Realized One loves seclusion and delights in it, so this thought often occurs to him: ‘What is unskillful has been given up.’ > Pali: Pavivekārāmo, bhikkhave, tathāgato pavivekarato. Tamenaṁ, bhikkhave, tathāgataṁ pavivekārāmaṁ pavivekarataṁ eseva vitakko bahulaṁ samudācarati: ‘yaṁ akusalaṁ taṁ pahīnan’ti. [¶29] So, mendicants, you too should love kindness and delight in it, then this thought will often occur to you: ‘Through this behavior, I shall not hurt any creature firm or frail.’ > Pali: Tasmātiha, bhikkhave, tumhepi abyāpajjhārāmā viharatha abyāpajjharatā. Tesaṁ vo, bhikkhave, tumhākaṁ abyāpajjhārāmānaṁ viharataṁ abyāpajjharatānaṁ eseva vitakko bahulaṁ samudācarissati: ‘imāya mayaṁ iriyāya na kañci byābādhema tasaṁ vā thāvaraṁ vā’ti. [¶30] You too should love seclusion and delight in it, then this thought will often occur to you: ‘What is unskillful? What is not given up? What should I give up?’” > Pali: Pavivekārāmā, bhikkhave, viharatha pavivekaratā. Tesaṁ vo, bhikkhave, tumhākaṁ pavivekārāmānaṁ viharataṁ pavivekaratānaṁ eseva vitakko bahulaṁ samudācarissati: ‘kiṁ akusalaṁ, kiṁ appahīnaṁ, kiṁ pajahāmā’”ti. [¶31] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶32] “Two thoughts occur to him, the Realized One, the bearer of the unbearable: first mentioned was thought of sanctuary, then the second made clear was seclusion. > Pali: “Tathāgataṁ buddhamasayhasāhinaṁ, Duve vitakkā samudācaranti naṁ; Khemo vitakko paṭhamo udīrito, Tato viveko dutiyo pakāsito. [¶33] Dispeller of darkness, the great seer has crossed over: the attained, the master, the undefiled. In the midst of it all, he is freed in the ending of craving; that sage bears his final body. He has disposed of Māra, I declare, and gone beyond old age. > Pali: Tamonudaṁ pāragataṁ mahesiṁ, Taṁ pattipattaṁ vasimaṁ anāsavaṁ; Visantaraṁ taṇhakkhaye vimuttaṁ, Taṁ ve muniṁ antimadehadhāriṁ; Mārañjahaṁ brūmi jarāya pāraguṁ. [¶34] Standing high on a rocky mountain, you can see the people all around. In just the same way, the All-seer, so intelligent, having ascended the Temple of Truth, rid of sorrow, looks upon the people swamped with sorrow, overcome by rebirth and old age.” > Pali: Sele yathā pabbatamuddhaniṭṭhito, Yathāpi passe janataṁ samantato; Tathūpamaṁ dhammamayaṁ sumedho, Pāsādamāruyha samantacakkhu; Sokāvatiṇṇaṁ janatamapetasoko, Avekkhati jātijarābhibhūtan”ti. [¶35] This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. [¶36] > Pali: Paṭhamaṁ.

What two? ‘See evil as evil’— this is the first approach to teaching Dhamma. ‘Having seen evil as evil, be disillusioned, dispassionate, and freed from it’— this is the second approach to teaching Dhamma. The Realized One, the perfected one, the fully awakened Buddha has these two approaches to teaching Dhamma.” > Pali: “Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, arahato sammāsambuddhassa dve dhammadesanā pariyāyena bhavanti. Katamā dve? ‘Pāpaṁ pāpakato passathā’ti— ayaṁ paṭhamā dhammadesanā; ‘pāpaṁ pāpakato disvā tattha nibbindatha virajjatha vimuccathā’ti— ayaṁ dutiyā dhammadesanā. Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, arahato sammāsambuddhassa imā dve dhammadesanā pariyāyena bhavantī”ti. [¶42] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶43] “See the two approaches for explaining the Dhamma used by the Realized One, the Buddha, compassionate for all beings: > Pali: “Tathāgatassa buddhassa, sabbabhūtānukampino; Pariyāyavacanaṁ passa, dve ca dhammā pakāsitā. [¶44] see that that is evil, and be dispassionate toward it. Then, with a mind free of desire, you’ll make an end of suffering.” > Pali: Pāpakaṁ passatha cetaṁ, tattha cāpi virajjatha; Tato virattacittāse, dukkhassantaṁ karissathā”ti. [¶45] This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. [¶46] > Pali: Dutiyaṁ. [¶47] Iti 40 · Knowledge > Pali: Iti 40 · Vijjāsutta [¶48] The Book of the Twos > Pali: Dukanipāta [¶49] Chapter Two > Pali: Dutiyavagga [¶50] This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ: [¶51] “Mendicants, ignorance leads the attainment of unskillful qualities, with lack of conscience and prudence following along. Knowledge leads the attainment of skillful qualities, with conscience and prudence following along.” > Pali: “Avijjā, bhikkhave, pubbaṅgamā akusalānaṁ dhammānaṁ samāpattiyā anvadeva ahirikaṁ anottappaṁ; vijjā ca kho, bhikkhave, pubbaṅgamā kusalānaṁ dhammānaṁ samāpattiyā anvadeva hirottappan”ti. [¶52] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶53] “Bad destinies of whatever kind, in this world or the next, are all rooted in ignorance, compounded of greed and desire. > Pali: “Yā kācimā duggatiyo, asmiṁ loke paramhi ca; Avijjāmūlikā sabbā, icchālobhasamussayā. [¶54] Since one of corrupt wishes is unconscientious, lacking regard for others, they brim with much wickedness, which sends them to a place of loss. > Pali: Yato ca hoti pāpiccho, ahirīko anādaro; Tato pāpaṁ pasavati, apāyaṁ tena gacchati. [¶55] Therefore, dispelling desire and greed and ignorance, a mendicant arousing knowledge would abandon all bad destinies.” > Pali: Tasmā chandañca lobhañca, avijjañca virājayaṁ; Vijjaṁ uppādayaṁ bhikkhu, sabbā duggatiyo jahe”ti. [¶56] This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. [¶57] > Pali: Tatiyaṁ. [¶58] > Pali: Paṭhamabhāṇavāro. [¶59] Iti 41 · Bereft of Wisdom > Pali: Iti 41 · Paññāparihīnasutta [¶60] The Book of the Twos > Pali: Dukanipāta [¶61] Chapter Two > Pali: Dutiyavagga [¶62] This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ: [¶63] “Those sentient beings are truly bereft, mendicants, who are bereft of noble wisdom. They live unhappily in this very life—with distress, anguish, and fever— and when the body breaks up, after death, they can expect a bad rebirth. Those sentient beings are not bereft who are not bereft of noble wisdom. In this very life they’re happy—free of distress, anguish, and fever— and when the body breaks up, after death, they can expect a good rebirth.” > Pali: “Te, bhikkhave, sattā suparihīnā ye ariyāya paññāya parihīnā. Te diṭṭheva dhamme dukkhaṁ viharanti savighātaṁ saupāyāsaṁ sapariḷāhaṁ; kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā duggati pāṭikaṅkhā. Te, bhikkhave, sattā aparihīnā ye ariyāya paññāya aparihīnā. Te diṭṭheva dhamme sukhaṁ viharanti avighātaṁ anupāyāsaṁ apariḷāhaṁ; kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā sugati pāṭikaṅkhā”ti. [¶64] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶65] “See the world with its gods, bereft of wisdom, habituated to name and form, imagining this is truth. > Pali: “Paññāya parihānena, passa lokaṁ sadevakaṁ; Niviṭṭhaṁ nāmarūpasmiṁ, idaṁ saccanti maññati. [¶66] Wisdom is best in the world, as it leads to penetration, through which one rightly understands the ending of rebirth and continued existence. > Pali: Paññā hi seṭṭhā lokasmiṁ, yāyaṁ nibbedhagāminī; Yāya sammā pajānāti, jātibhavaparikkhayaṁ. [¶67] Gods and humans envy them, the Buddhas, ever mindful, of laughing wisdom, bearing their final body.” > Pali: Tesaṁ devā manussā ca, sambuddhānaṁ satīmataṁ; Pihayanti hāsapaññānaṁ, sarīrantimadhārinan”ti. [¶68] This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. [¶69] > Pali: Catutthaṁ. [¶70] Iti 42 · Bright Things > Pali: Iti 42 · Sukkadhammasutta [¶71] The Book of the Twos > Pali: Dukanipāta [¶72] Chapter Two > Pali: Dutiyavagga [¶73] This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ: [¶74] “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 hounds 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.” > Pali: “Dveme, bhikkhave, sukkā dhammā lokaṁ pālenti. Katame dve? Hirī ca, ottappañca. Ime ce, bhikkhave, dve sukkā dhammā lokaṁ na pāleyyuṁ, nayidha paññāyetha mātāti vā mātucchāti vā mātulānīti vā ācariyabhariyāti vā garūnaṁ dārāti vā. Sambhedaṁ loko agamissa yathā ajeḷakā kukkuṭasūkarā soṇasiṅgālā. Yasmā ca kho, bhikkhave, ime dve sukkā dhammā lokaṁ pālenti tasmā paññāyati mātāti vā mātucchāti vā mātulānīti vā ācariyabhariyāti vā garūnaṁ dārāti vā”ti. [¶75] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶76] “Those in whom conscience and prudence are never found at all, have lost their bright roots, and fare on in birth and death. > Pali: “Yesañce hiriottappaṁ, sabbadā ca na vijjati; Vokkantā sukkamūlā te, jātimaraṇagāmino. [¶77] Those in whom conscience and prudence are always rightly established, thrive in the spiritual life; being at peace, they will not be reborn again.” > Pali: Yesañca hiriottappaṁ, sadā sammā upaṭṭhitā; Virūḷhabrahmacariyā te, santo khīṇapunabbhavā”ti. [¶78] This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. [¶79] > Pali: Pañcamaṁ.

If there were no freedom from rebirth, freedom from what has been produced, made, and conditioned, then you would find no escape here from rebirth, from what has been produced, made, and conditioned. But since there is freedom from rebirth, freedom from what has been produced, made, and conditioned, an escape is found from rebirth, from what has been produced, made, and conditioned.” > Pali: “Atthi, bhikkhave, ajātaṁ abhūtaṁ akataṁ asaṅkhataṁ. No cetaṁ, bhikkhave, abhavissa ajātaṁ abhūtaṁ akataṁ asaṅkhataṁ, nayidha jātassa bhūtassa katassa saṅkhatassa nissaraṇaṁ paññāyetha. Yasmā ca kho, bhikkhave, atthi ajātaṁ abhūtaṁ akataṁ asaṅkhataṁ, tasmā jātassa bhūtassa katassa saṅkhatassa nissaraṇaṁ paññāyatī”ti. [¶85] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶86] “What’s reborn, produced, and arisen, made, conditioned, not lasting, wrapped in old age and death, frail, a nest of disease, > Pali: “Jātaṁ bhūtaṁ samuppannaṁ, kataṁ saṅkhatamaddhuvaṁ; Jarāmaraṇasaṅghāṭaṁ, roganīḷaṁ pabhaṅguraṁ. [¶87] whose inception is the leash to food: that’s not fit to delight in. The escape from that is peaceful, beyond the scope of logic, everlasting, > Pali: Āhāranettippabhavaṁ, nālaṁ tadabhinandituṁ; Tassa nissaraṇaṁ santaṁ, atakkāvacaraṁ dhuvaṁ. [¶88] where nothing is reborn or arisen, the sorrowless, stainless state, the cessation of all painful things, the blissful stilling of conditions.” > Pali: Ajātaṁ asamuppannaṁ, asokaṁ virajaṁ padaṁ; Nirodho dukkhadhammānaṁ, saṅkhārūpasamo sukho”ti. [¶89] This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. [¶90] > Pali: Chaṭṭhaṁ. [¶91] Iti 44 · Elements of Extinguishment > Pali: Iti 44 · Nibbānadhātusutta [¶92] The Book of the Twos > Pali: Dukanipāta [¶93] Chapter Two > Pali: Dutiyavagga [¶94] This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard. > Pali: Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ: [¶95] “There are, mendicants, these two elements of extinguishment. What two? The element of extinguishment with residue, and the element of extinguishment with no residue. > Pali: “Dvemā, bhikkhave, nibbānadhātuyo. Katamā dve? Saupādisesā ca nibbānadhātu, anupādisesā ca nibbānadhātu. [¶96] And what is the element of extinguishment with residue? It’s when a mendicant is a perfected one, with defilements ended, who has completed the spiritual journey, done what had to be done, laid down the burden, achieved their heart’s goal, utterly ended the fetter of continued existence, and is rightly freed through enlightenment. Their five sense faculties still remain. So long as their senses have not gone they continue to experience the agreeable and disagreeable, to feel pleasure and pain. The ending of greed, hate, and delusion in them is called the element of extinguishment with residue. > Pali: Katamā ca, bhikkhave, saupādisesā nibbānadhātu? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu arahaṁ hoti khīṇāsavo vusitavā katakaraṇīyo ohitabhāro anuppattasadattho parikkhīṇabhavasaṁyojano sammadaññāvimutto.

Tassa yo rāgakkhayo, dosakkhayo, mohakkhayo— ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, saupādisesā nibbānadhātu. [¶97] And what is the element of extinguishment with no residue? It’s when a mendicant is a perfected one, with defilements ended, who has completed the spiritual journey, done what had to be done, laid down the burden, achieved their heart’s goal, utterly ended the fetter of continued existence, and is rightly freed through enlightenment. For them, everything that’s felt, being no longer relished, will become cool right here. This is called the element of extinguishment with no residue. These are the two elements of extinguishment.” > Pali: Katamā ca, bhikkhave, anupādisesā nibbānadhātu? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu arahaṁ hoti khīṇāsavo vusitavā katakaraṇīyo ohitabhāro anuppattasadattho parikkhīṇabhavasaṁyojano sammadaññāvimutto.

[¶98] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶99] “These two elements of extinguishment have been revealed by the Clear-eyed One, the unattached, the unaffected. One element pertains to this life— that with residue though the leash to existence has ended; and that with no residue, which pertains to what follows this life, where all states of existence cease. > Pali: “Duve imā cakkhumatā pakāsitā, Nibbānadhātū anissitena tādinā; Ekā hi dhātu idha diṭṭhadhammikā, Saupādisesā bhavanettisaṅkhayā; Anupādisesā pana samparāyikā, Yamhi nirujjhanti bhavāni sabbaso. [¶100] Those who have fully understood the unconditioned state— their minds freed, the leash to existence ended— attained to the heart of the Dhamma, they delight in ending, the unaffected ones have given up all states of existence.” > Pali: Ye etadaññāya padaṁ asaṅkhataṁ, Vimuttacittā bhavanettisaṅkhayā; Te dhammasārādhigamā khaye ratā, Pahaṁsu te sabbabhavāni tādino”ti.

Be committed to inner serenity of the heart, don’t neglect absorption, be endowed with discernment, and frequent empty huts. A mendicant who enjoys retreat can expect one of two results: enlightenment in this very life, or if there’s residue left behind, non-return.” > Pali: “Paṭisallānārāmā, bhikkhave, viharatha paṭisallānaratā, ajjhattaṁ cetosamathamanuyuttā, anirākatajjhānā, vipassanāya samannāgatā, brūhetāro suññāgārānaṁ.

[¶108] The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: > Pali: Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati: [¶109] “With minds at peace, alert, mindful and meditative, they rightly discern the Dhamma, unconcerned for sensual pleasures. > Pali: “Ye santacittā nipakā, satimanto ca jhāyino; Sammā dhammaṁ vipassanti, kāmesu anapekkhino. [¶110] Delighting in diligence, peaceful, seeing fear in negligence, such a one can’t decline, and has drawn near to extinguishment.” > Pali: Appamādaratā santā, pamāde bhayadassino; Abhabbā parihānāya, nibbānasseva santike”ti.
