“Bhikkhus, I went in search of the earth element’s gratification, and I found it. I’ve seen clearly with wisdom the full extent of gratification in the earth element. I went in search of the earth element’s drawback, and I found it. I’ve seen clearly with wisdom the full extent of the drawback in the earth element. I went in search of escape from the earth element, and I found it. I’ve seen clearly with wisdom the full extent of escape from the earth element.

I went in search of the water element’s gratification … I went in search of the fire element’s gratification … I went in search of the air element’s gratification …
यावकीवञ्चाहं, भिक्खवे, इमासं चतुन्नं धातूनं अस्सादञ्च अस्सादतो आदीनवञ्च आदीनवतो निस्सरणञ्च निस्सरणतो यथाभूतं न अब्भञ्ञासिं, नेव तावाहं, भिक्खवे, सदेवके लोके समारके सब्रह्मके सस्समणब्राह्मणिया पजाय सदेवमनुस्साय अनुत्तरं सम्मासम्बोधिं अभिसम्बुद्धोति पच्चञ्ञासिं।
Yāvakīvañcāhaṁ, bhikkhave, imāsaṁ catunnaṁ dhātūnaṁ assādañca assādato ādīnavañca ādīnavato nissaraṇañca nissaraṇato yathābhūtaṁ na abbhaññāsiṁ, neva tāvāhaṁ, bhikkhave, sadevake loke samārake sabrahmake sassamaṇabrāhmaṇiyā pajāya sadevamanussāya anuttaraṁ sammāsambodhiṁ abhisambuddhoti paccaññāsiṁ.
As long as I didn’t truly understand these four elements’ gratification, drawback, and escape for what they are, I didn’t announce my supreme perfect awakening in this world with its gods, Māras, and Brahmās, this population with its ascetics and brahmins, its gods and humans.
यतो च ख्वाहं, भिक्खवे, इमासं चतुन्नं धातूनं अस्सादञ्च अस्सादतो आदीनवञ्च आदीनवतो निस्सरणञ्च निस्सरणतो यथाभूतं अब्भञ्ञासिं, अथाहं, भिक्खवे, सदेवके लोके समारके सब्रह्मके सस्समणब्राह्मणिया पजाय सदेवमनुस्साय अनुत्तरं सम्मासम्बोधिं अभिसम्बुद्धोति पच्चञ्ञासिं।
Yato ca khvāhaṁ, bhikkhave, imāsaṁ catunnaṁ dhātūnaṁ assādañca assādato ādīnavañca ādīnavato nissaraṇañca nissaraṇato yathābhūtaṁ abbhaññāsiṁ, athāhaṁ, bhikkhave, sadevake loke samārake sabrahmake sassamaṇabrāhmaṇiyā pajāya sadevamanussāya anuttaraṁ sammāsambodhiṁ abhisambuddhoti paccaññāsiṁ.
But when I did truly understand the four elements’ gratification, drawback, and escape for what they are, I announced my supreme perfect awakening in this world with its gods, Māras, and Brahmās, this population with its ascetics and brahmins, its gods and humans.
ञाणञ्च पन मे दस्सनं उदपादि: ‘अकुप्पा मे विमुत्ति, अयमन्तिमा जाति, नत्थि दानि पुनब्भवोऽ”ति।
Ñāṇañca pana me dassanaṁ udapādi: ‘akuppā me vimutti, ayamantimā jāti, natthi dāni punabbhavo’”ti.
Knowledge and vision arose in me: ‘My freedom is unshakable; this is my last rebirth; now there’ll be no more future lives.’”
ततियं।
Tatiyaṁ.
