remembering of Breathing |
Evaį¹ me sutaį¹— |
So I have heard. |
ekaį¹ samayaį¹ bhagavÄ sÄvatthiyaį¹ viharati pubbÄrÄme migÄramÄtupÄsÄde sambahulehi abhiƱƱÄtehi abhiƱƱÄtehi therehi sÄvakehi saddhiį¹— |
At one time the Buddha was staying near SÄvatthÄ« in the Eastern Monastery, the stilt longhouse of MigÄraās mother, together with several well-known senior disciples, such as |
ÄyasmatÄ ca sÄriputtena ÄyasmatÄ ca mahÄmoggallÄnena ÄyasmatÄ ca mahÄkassapena ÄyasmatÄ ca mahÄkaccÄyanena ÄyasmatÄ ca mahÄkoį¹į¹hikena ÄyasmatÄ ca mahÄkappinena ÄyasmatÄ ca mahÄcundena ÄyasmatÄ ca anuruddhena ÄyasmatÄ ca revatena ÄyasmatÄ ca Änandena, aƱƱehi ca abhiƱƱÄtehi abhiƱƱÄtehi therehi sÄvakehi saddhiį¹. |
the venerables SÄriputta, MahÄmoggallÄna, MahÄkassapa, MahÄkaccÄna, MahÄkoį¹į¹hita, MahÄkappina, MahÄcunda, Anuruddha, Revata, Änanda, and others. |
Tena kho pana samayena therÄ bhikkhÅ« nave bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti. |
Now at that time the senior monks were advising and instructing the junior monks. |
Appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« dasapi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti, appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« vÄ«sampi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti, appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« tiį¹sampi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti, appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« cattÄrÄ«sampi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti. |
Some senior monks instructed ten monks, while some instructed twenty, thirty, or forty. |
Te ca navÄ bhikkhÅ« therehi bhikkhÅ«hi ovadiyamÄnÄ anusÄsiyamÄnÄ uįø·Äraį¹ pubbenÄparaį¹ visesaį¹ jÄnanti. |
Being instructed by the senior monks, the junior monks realized a higher distinction than they had before. |
Tena kho pana samayena bhagavÄ tadahuposathe pannarase pavÄraį¹Äya puį¹į¹Äya puį¹į¹amÄya rattiyÄ bhikkhusaį¹ghaparivuto abbhokÄse nisinno hoti. |
Now, at that time it was the sabbath—the full moon on the fifteenth day—and the Buddha was sitting surrounded by the Saį¹ gha of monks for the invitation to admonish. |
Atha kho bhagavÄ tuį¹hÄ«bhÅ«taį¹ tuį¹hÄ«bhÅ«taį¹ bhikkhusaį¹ghaį¹ anuviloketvÄ bhikkhÅ« Ämantesi: |
Then the Buddha looked around the Saį¹ gha of monks, who were so very silent. He addressed them: |
āÄraddhosmi, bhikkhave, imÄya paį¹ipadÄya; |
āI am satisfied, monks, with this practice. |
Äraddhacittosmi, bhikkhave, imÄya paį¹ipadÄya. |
My heart is satisfied with this practice. |
TasmÄtiha, bhikkhave, bhiyyoso mattÄya vÄ«riyaį¹ Ärabhatha appattassa pattiyÄ, anadhigatassa adhigamÄya, asacchikatassa sacchikiriyÄya. |
So you should rouse up even more energy for attaining the unattained, achieving the unachieved, and realizing the unrealized. |
IdhevÄhaį¹ sÄvatthiyaį¹ komudiį¹ cÄtumÄsiniį¹ ÄgamessÄmÄ«āti. |
I will wait here in SÄvatthÄ« for the Komudi full moon of the fourth month.ā |
Assosuį¹ kho jÄnapadÄ bhikkhÅ«: |
monks from around the country heard about this. |
ābhagavÄ kira tattheva sÄvatthiyaį¹ komudiį¹ cÄtumÄsiniį¹ ÄgamessatÄ«āti. |
|
Te jÄnapadÄ bhikkhÅ« sÄvatthiį¹ osaranti bhagavantaį¹ dassanÄya. |
They came down to SÄvatthÄ« to see the Buddha. |
Te ca kho therÄ bhikkhÅ« bhiyyoso mattÄya nave bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti. |
And those senior monks instructed the junior monks even more. |
Appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« dasapi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti, appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« vÄ«sampi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti, appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« tiį¹sampi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti, appekacce therÄ bhikkhÅ« cattÄrÄ«sampi bhikkhÅ« ovadanti anusÄsanti. |
Some senior monks instructed ten monks, while some instructed twenty, thirty, or forty. |
Te ca navÄ bhikkhÅ« therehi bhikkhÅ«hi ovadiyamÄnÄ anusÄsiyamÄnÄ uįø·Äraį¹ pubbenÄparaį¹ visesaį¹ jÄnanti. |
Being instructed by the senior monks, the junior monks realized a higher distinction than they had before. |
Tena kho pana samayena bhagavÄ tadahuposathe pannarase komudiyÄ cÄtumÄsiniyÄ puį¹į¹Äya puį¹į¹amÄya rattiyÄ bhikkhusaį¹
ghaparivuto abbhokÄse nisinno hoti. |
Now, at that time it was the sabbath—the Komudi full moon on the fifteenth day of the fourth month—and the Buddha was sitting in the open surrounded by the Saį¹ gha of monks. |
Atha kho bhagavÄ tuį¹hÄ«bhÅ«taį¹ tuį¹hÄ«bhÅ«taį¹ bhikkhusaį¹
ghaį¹ anuviloketvÄ bhikkhÅ« Ämantesi: |
Then the Buddha looked around the Saį¹ gha of monks, who were so very silent. He addressed them: |
āApalÄpÄyaį¹, bhikkhave, parisÄ; nippalÄpÄyaį¹, bhikkhave, parisÄ; suddhÄ sÄre patiį¹į¹hitÄ. |
āThis assembly has no nonsense, monks, itās free of nonsense. It consists purely of the essential core. |
TathÄrÅ«po ayaį¹, bhikkhave, bhikkhusaį¹gho; tathÄrÅ«pÄ ayaį¹, bhikkhave, parisÄ |
Such is this Saį¹ gha of monks, such is this assembly! |
yathÄrÅ«pÄ parisÄ ÄhuneyyÄ pÄhuneyyÄ dakkhiį¹eyyÄ aƱjalikaraį¹Ä«yÄ anuttaraį¹ puƱƱakkhettaį¹ lokassa. |
An assembly such as this is worthy of offerings dedicated to the gods, worthy of hospitality, worthy of a teacherās offering, worthy of greeting with joined palms, and is the supreme field of merit for the world. |
TathÄrÅ«po ayaį¹, bhikkhave, bhikkhusaį¹gho; tathÄrÅ«pÄ ayaį¹, bhikkhave, parisÄ |
Such is this Saį¹ gha of monks, such is this assembly! |
yathÄrÅ«pÄya parisÄya appaį¹ dinnaį¹ bahu hoti, bahu dinnaį¹ bahutaraį¹. |
Even a small gift to an assembly such as this is fruitful, while giving more is even more fruitful. |
TathÄrÅ«po ayaį¹, bhikkhave, bhikkhusaį¹gho; tathÄrÅ«pÄ ayaį¹, bhikkhave, parisÄ |
Such is this Saį¹ gha of monks, such is this assembly! |
yathÄrÅ«pÄ parisÄ dullabhÄ dassanÄya lokassa. |
An assembly such as this is rarely seen in the world. |
TathÄrÅ«po ayaį¹, bhikkhave, bhikkhusaį¹gho; tathÄrÅ«pÄ ayaį¹, bhikkhave, parisÄ |
Such is this Saį¹ gha of monks, such is this assembly! |
yathÄrÅ«paį¹ parisaį¹ alaį¹ yojanagaį¹anÄni dassanÄya gantuį¹ puį¹osenÄpi. |
An assembly such as this is worth traveling many leagues to see, even if you have to carry your own provisions in a shoulder bag. |
