    इदमवोच भगवा …पे… एतदवोच सत्था:

    Idamavoca bhagavā …pe… etadavoca satthā:

    That is what the Buddha said. Then the Holy One, the Teacher, went on to say:

    “सळेव फस्सायतनानि भिक्खवो, असंवुतो यत्थ दुक्खं निगच्छति; तेसञ्च ये संवरणं अवेदिसुं, सद्धादुतिया विहरन्तानवस्सुता।

    “Saḷeva1 phassāyatanāni bhikkhavo, Asaṁvuto yattha dukkhaṁ nigacchati; Tesañca ye saṁvaraṇaṁ avedisuṁ, Saddhādutiyā viharantānavassutā.

    “Bhikkhus, it’s just the six fields of contact that lead the unrestrained to suffering. Those who understand how to restrain them live with faith as partner, uncorrupted.

    दिस्वान रूपानि मनोरमानि, अथोपि दिस्वान अमनोरमानि; मनोरमे रागपथं विनोदये, न चाप्पियं मेति मनं पदोसये।

    Disvāna rūpāni manoramāni, Athopi disvāna amanoramāni; Manorame rāgapathaṁ vinodaye, Na cāppiyaṁ meti manaṁ padosaye.

    When you’ve seen pleasant sights and unpleasant ones, too, get rid of all manner of desire for the pleasant, without hating what you don’t like.

    सद्दञ्च सुत्वा दुभयं पियाप्पियं, पियम्हि सद्दे न समुच्छितो सिया; अथोप्पिये दोसगतं विनोदये, न चाप्पियं मेति मनं पदोसये।

    Saddañca sutvā dubhayaṁ piyāppiyaṁ, Piyamhi sadde na samucchito siyā; Athoppiye dosagataṁ vinodaye, Na cāppiyaṁ meti manaṁ padosaye.

    When you’ve heard sounds both liked and disliked, don’t fall under the thrall of sounds you like, get rid of hate for the unliked, and don’t hurt your mind by thinking of what you don’t like.

    गन्धञ्च घत्वा सुरभिं मनोरमं, अथोपि घत्वा असुचिं अकन्तियं; अकन्तियस्मिं पटिघं विनोदये, छन्दानुनीतो न च कन्तिये सिया।

    Gandhañca ghatvā surabhiṁ manoramaṁ, Athopi ghatvā asuciṁ akantiyaṁ; Akantiyasmiṁ paṭighaṁ vinodaye, Chandānunīto na ca kantiye siyā.

    When you’ve smelled a pleasant, fragrant scent, and one that’s foul and unpleasant, get rid of repulsion for the unpleasant, while not yielding to desire for the pleasant.

    रसञ्च भोत्वान असादितञ्च सादुं, अथोपि भोत्वान असादुमेकदा; सादुं रसं नाज्झोसाय भुञ्जे, विरोधमासादुसु नोपदंसये।

    Rasañca bhotvāna asāditañca sāduṁ, Athopi bhotvāna asādumekadā; Sāduṁ rasaṁ nājjhosāya bhuñje, Virodhamāsādusu nopadaṁsaye.

    When you’ve enjoyed a sweet, delicious taste, and sometimes those that are bitter, don’t be attached to enjoying sweet tastes, and don’t despise the bitter.

    फस्सेन फुट्ठो न सुखेन मज्जे, दुक्खेन फुट्ठोपि न सम्पवेधे; फस्सद्वयं सुखदुक्खे उपेक्खे, अनानुरुद्धो अविरुद्ध केनचि।

    Phassena phuṭṭho na sukhena majje, Dukkhena phuṭṭhopi na sampavedhe; Phassadvayaṁ sukhadukkhe upekkhe, Anānuruddho aviruddha kenaci.

    Don’t be intoxicated by a pleasant touch, and don’t tremble at a painful touch. Look with equanimity at the duality of pleasant and painful contacts, without favoring or opposing anything.

    पपञ्चसञ्ञा इतरीतरा नरा, पपञ्चयन्ता उपयन्ति सञ्ञिनो; मनोमयं गेहसितञ्च सब्बं, पनुज्ज नेक्खम्मसितं इरीयति।

    Papañcasaññā itarītarā narā, Papañcayantā upayanti saññino; Manomayaṁ gehasitañca sabbaṁ, Panujja nekkhammasitaṁ irīyati.

    People generally let their perceptions proliferate; perceiving and proliferating, they are attracted. When you’ve expelled all thoughts of the lay life, wander intent on renunciation.

    एवं मनो छस्सु यदा सुभावितो, फुट्ठस्स चित्तं न विकम्पते क्वचि; ते रागदोसे अभिभुय्य भिक्खवो, भवत्थ जातिमरणस्स पारगा”ति।

    Evaṁ mano chassu yadā subhāvito, Phuṭṭhassa cittaṁ na vikampate kvaci; Te rāgadose abhibhuyya bhikkhavo, Bhavattha2 jātimaraṇassa pāragā”ti.

    When the mind is well developed like this regarding the six, it doesn’t waver at contacts at all. Bhikkhus, those who have mastered greed and hate go beyond birth and death.”
