“Bhikkhus, I will teach you about three wild colts and three wild people; three excellent horses and three excellent people; and three fine thoroughbred horses and three fine thoroughbred people. Listen and apply your mind well, I will speak.
कतमे च, भिक्खवे, तयो अस्सखळुङ्का? इध, भिक्खवे, एकच्चो अस्सखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो होति, न वण्णसम्पन्नो, न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो। इध पन, भिक्खवे, एकच्चो अस्सखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो च होति वण्णसम्पन्नो च, न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो। इध पन, भिक्खवे, एकच्चो अस्सखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो च होति वण्णसम्पन्नो च आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो च। इमे खो, भिक्खवे, तयो अस्सखळुङ्का।
Katame ca, bhikkhave, tayo assakhaḷuṅkā? Idha, bhikkhave, ekacco assakhaḷuṅko javasampanno hoti, na vaṇṇasampanno, na ārohapariṇāhasampanno. Idha pana, bhikkhave, ekacco assakhaḷuṅko javasampanno ca hoti vaṇṇasampanno ca, na ārohapariṇāhasampanno. Idha pana, bhikkhave, ekacco assakhaḷuṅko javasampanno ca hoti vaṇṇasampanno ca ārohapariṇāhasampanno ca. Ime kho, bhikkhave, tayo assakhaḷuṅkā.
And what are the three wild colts? One wild colt is fast, but not beautiful or well proportioned. Another wild colt is fast and beautiful, but not well proportioned. While another wild colt is fast, beautiful, and well proportioned. These are the three wild colts.
कतमे च, भिक्खवे, तयो पुरिसखळुङ्का? इध, भिक्खवे, एकच्चो पुरिसखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो होति, न वण्णसम्पन्नो, न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो। इध पन, भिक्खवे, एकच्चो पुरिसखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो च होति वण्णसम्पन्नो च, न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो। इध पन, भिक्खवे, एकच्चो पुरिसखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो च होति वण्णसम्पन्नो च आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो च।
Katame ca, bhikkhave, tayo purisakhaḷuṅkā? Idha, bhikkhave, ekacco purisakhaḷuṅko javasampanno hoti, na vaṇṇasampanno, na ārohapariṇāhasampanno. Idha pana, bhikkhave, ekacco purisakhaḷuṅko javasampanno ca hoti vaṇṇasampanno ca, na ārohapariṇāhasampanno. Idha pana, bhikkhave, ekacco purisakhaḷuṅko javasampanno ca hoti vaṇṇasampanno ca ārohapariṇāhasampanno ca.
And what are the three wild people? One wild person is fast, but not beautiful or well proportioned. Another wild person is fast and beautiful, but not well proportioned. While another wild person is fast, beautiful, and well proportioned.
कथञ्च, भिक्खवे, पुरिसखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो होति, न वण्णसम्पन्नो न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो? इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु ‘इदं दुक्खन्ऽति यथाभूतं पजानाति, ‘अयं दुक्खसमुदयोऽति यथाभूतं पजानाति, ‘अयं दुक्खनिरोधोऽति यथाभूतं पजानाति, ‘अयं दुक्खनिरोधगामिनी पटिपदाऽति यथाभूतं पजानाति। इदमस्स जवस्मिं वदामि। अभिधम्मे खो पन अभिविनये पञ्हं पुट्ठो संसादेति, नो विस्सज्जेति। इदमस्स न वण्णस्मिं वदामि। न खो पन लाभी होति चीवरपिण्डपातसेनासनगिलानपच्चयभेसज्जपरिक्खारानं। इदमस्स न आरोहपरिणाहस्मिं वदामि। एवं खो, भिक्खवे, पुरिसखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो होति, न वण्णसम्पन्नो न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो।
Kathañca, bhikkhave, purisakhaḷuṅko javasampanno hoti, na vaṇṇasampanno na ārohapariṇāhasampanno? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu ‘idaṁ dukkhan’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti, ‘ayaṁ dukkhasamudayo’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti, ‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodho’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti, ‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti. Idamassa javasmiṁ vadāmi. Abhidhamme kho pana abhivinaye pañhaṁ puṭṭho saṁsādeti, no vissajjeti. Idamassa na vaṇṇasmiṁ vadāmi. Na kho pana lābhī hoti cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānapaccayabhesajjaparikkhārānaṁ. Idamassa na ārohapariṇāhasmiṁ vadāmi. Evaṁ kho, bhikkhave, purisakhaḷuṅko javasampanno hoti, na vaṇṇasampanno na ārohapariṇāhasampanno.
And how is a wild person fast, but not beautiful or well proportioned? It’s when a bhikkhu truly understands: ‘This is suffering’ … ‘This is the origin of suffering’ … ‘This is the cessation of suffering’ … ‘This is the practice that leads to the cessation of suffering’. This is how they’re fast, I say. But when asked a question about the teaching or training, they falter without answering. This is how they’re not beautiful, I say. And they don’t receive robes, almsfood, lodgings, and medicines and supplies for the sick. This is how they’re not well proportioned, I say. This is how a wild person is fast, but not beautiful or well proportioned.
कथञ्च, भिक्खवे, पुरिसखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो च होति वण्णसम्पन्नो च, न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो? इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु ‘इदं दुक्खन्ऽति यथाभूतं पजानाति …पे… ‘अयं दुक्खनिरोधगामिनी पटिपदाऽति यथाभूतं पजानाति। इदमस्स जवस्मिं वदामि। अभिधम्मे खो पन अभिविनये पञ्हं पुट्ठो विस्सज्जेति, नो संसादेति। इदमस्स वण्णस्मिं वदामि। न खो पन लाभी होति चीवरपिण्डपातसेनासनगिलानपच्चयभेसज्जपरिक्खारानं। इदमस्स न आरोहपरिणाहस्मिं वदामि। एवं खो, भिक्खवे, पुरिसखळुङ्को जवसम्पन्नो च होति वण्णसम्पन्नो च, न आरोहपरिणाहसम्पन्नो।
