“आदिच्चस्स, भिक्खवे, उदयतो एतं पुब्बङ्गमं एतं पुब्बनिमित्तं, यदिदं—अरुणुग्गं।
“Ādiccassa, bhikkhave, udayato etaṁ pubbaṅgamaṁ etaṁ pubbanimittaṁ, yadidaṁ—aruṇuggaṁ.
“Bhikkhus, the dawn is the forerunner and precursor of the sunrise.
एवमेव खो, भिक्खवे, भिक्खुनो सत्तन्नं बोज्झङ्गानं उप्पादाय एतं पुब्बङ्गमं एतं पुब्बनिमित्तं, यदिदं—कल्याणमित्तता। कल्याणमित्तस्सेतं, भिक्खवे, भिक्खुनो पाटिकङ्खं—सत्त बोज्झङ्गे भावेस्सति, सत्त बोज्झङ्गे बहुलीकरिस्सति।
Evameva kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno sattannaṁ bojjhaṅgānaṁ uppādāya etaṁ pubbaṅgamaṁ etaṁ pubbanimittaṁ, yadidaṁ—kalyāṇamittatā. Kalyāṇamittassetaṁ, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno pāṭikaṅkhaṁ—satta bojjhaṅge bhāvessati, satta bojjhaṅge bahulīkarissati.
In the same way, for a bhikkhu good friendship is the forerunner and precursor of the arising of the seven awakening factors. A bhikkhu with good friends can expect to develop and cultivate the seven awakening factors.
कथञ्च, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु कल्याणमित्तो सत्त बोज्झङ्गे भावेति, सत्त बोज्झङ्गे बहुलीकरोति? इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु सतिसम्बोज्झङ्गं भावेति विवेकनिस्सितं …पे… उपेक्खासम्बोज्झङ्गं भावेति विवेकनिस्सितं विरागनिस्सितं निरोधनिस्सितं वोस्सग्गपरिणामिं। एवं खो, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु कल्याणमित्तो सत्त बोज्झङ्गे भावेति, सत्त बोज्झङ्गे बहुलीकरोती”ति।
Kathañca, bhikkhave, bhikkhu kalyāṇamitto satta bojjhaṅge bhāveti, satta bojjhaṅge bahulīkaroti? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu satisambojjhaṅgaṁ bhāveti vivekanissitaṁ …pe… upekkhāsambojjhaṅgaṁ bhāveti vivekanissitaṁ virāganissitaṁ nirodhanissitaṁ vossaggapariṇāmiṁ. Evaṁ kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhu kalyāṇamitto satta bojjhaṅge bhāveti, satta bojjhaṅge bahulīkarotī”ti.
And how does a bhikkhu with good friends develop and cultivate the seven awakening factors? It’s when a bhikkhu develops the awakening factors of mindfulness, investigation of principles, energy, rapture, tranquility, immersion, and equanimity, which rely on seclusion, fading away, and cessation, and ripen as letting go. That’s how a bhikkhu with good friends develops and cultivates the seven awakening factors.”
