Wielding Power (2nd)
“पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, अङ्गेहि समन्नागतो रञ्ञो चक्कवत्तिस्स जेट्ठो पुत्तो पितरा पवत्तितं चक्कं धम्मेनेव अनुप्पवत्तेति; तं होति चक्कं अप्पटिवत्तियं केनचि मनुस्सभूतेन पच्चत्थिकेन पाणिना।
“Pañcahi, bhikkhave, aṅgehi samannāgato rañño cakkavattissa jeṭṭho putto pitarā pavattitaṁ cakkaṁ dhammeneva anuppavatteti; taṁ hoti cakkaṁ appaṭivattiyaṁ kenaci manussabhūtena paccatthikena pāṇinā.
“Bhikkhus, possessing five factors a wheel-turning monarch’s eldest son continues to wield the power set in motion by his father only in a principled manner. And this power cannot be undermined by any human enemy.
कतमेहि पञ्चहि? इध, भिक्खवे, रञ्ञो चक्कवत्तिस्स जेट्ठो पुत्तो अत्थञ्ञू च होति, धम्मञ्ञू च, मत्तञ्ञू च, कालञ्ञू च, परिसञ्ञू च। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि अङ्गेहि समन्नागतो रञ्ञो चक्कवत्तिस्स जेट्ठो पुत्तो पितरा पवत्तितं चक्कं धम्मेनेव अनुप्पवत्तेति; तं होति चक्कं अप्पटिवत्तियं केनचि मनुस्सभूतेन पच्चत्थिकेन पाणिना।
Katamehi pañcahi? Idha, bhikkhave, rañño cakkavattissa jeṭṭho putto atthaññū ca hoti, dhammaññū ca, mattaññū ca, kālaññū ca, parisaññū ca. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi aṅgehi samannāgato rañño cakkavattissa jeṭṭho putto pitarā pavattitaṁ cakkaṁ dhammeneva anuppavatteti; taṁ hoti cakkaṁ appaṭivattiyaṁ kenaci manussabhūtena paccatthikena pāṇinā.
What five? A wheel-turning monarch’s oldest son knows what is right, knows principle, knows moderation, knows the right time, and knows the assembly. A wheel-turning monarch’s oldest son who possesses these five factors continues to wield the power set in motion by his father only in a principled manner. And this power cannot be undermined by any human enemy.
एवमेवं खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो सारिपुत्तो तथागतेन अनुत्तरं धम्मचक्कं पवत्तितं सम्मदेव अनुप्पवत्तेति; तं होति चक्कं अप्पटिवत्तियं समणेन वा ब्राह्मणेन वा देवेन वा मारेन वा ब्रह्मुना वा केनचि वा लोकस्मिं।
Evamevaṁ kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato sāriputto tathāgatena anuttaraṁ dhammacakkaṁ pavattitaṁ sammadeva anuppavatteti; taṁ hoti cakkaṁ appaṭivattiyaṁ samaṇena vā brāhmaṇena vā devena vā mārena vā brahmunā vā kenaci vā lokasmiṁ.
In the same way, possessing five qualities Sāriputta rightly keeps rolling the supreme Wheel of Dhamma that was rolled forth by the Realized One. And that wheel cannot be turned back by any ascetic or brahmin or god or Māra or Brahmā or by anyone in the world.
