In a Sorry State
ඒකං සමයං භගවා සාවත්ථියං විහරති. තත්‍ර ඛෝ …පේ…
At one time the Buddha was staying near Sāvatthī.
“අනමතග්ගෝයං, භික්ඛවේ, සංසාරෝ. පුබ්බා කෝටි න පඤ්ඤායති අවිජ්ජානීවරණානං සත්තානං තණ්හාසංයෝජනානං සන්ධාවතං සංසරතං. යං, භික්ඛවේ, පස්සේය්‍යාථ දුග්ගතං දුරූපේතං නිට්ඨමේත්ථ ගන්තබ්බං: ‘අම්හේහිපි ඒවරූපං පච්චනුභූතං ඉමිනා දීඝේන අද්ධුනා(අ)ති. තං කිස්ස හේතු …පේ… යාවඤ්චිදං, භික්ඛවේ, අලමේව සබ්බසඞ්ඛාරේසු නිබ්බින්දිතුං අලං විරජ්ජිතුං අලං විමුච්චිතුන්”ති.
“Bhikkhus, transmigration has no known beginning. No first point is found of sentient beings roaming and transmigrating, shrouded by ignorance and fettered by craving. When you see someone in a sorry state, in distress, you should conclude: ‘In all this long time, we too have undergone the same thing.’ Why is that? Transmigration has no known beginning. … This is quite enough for you to become disillusioned, dispassionate, and freed regarding all conditions.”
