“चत्तारोमे, भिक्खवे, पुग्गला सन्तो संविज्जमाना लोकस्मिं। कतमे चत्तारो?
“Cattārome, bhikkhave, puggalā santo saṁvijjamānā lokasmiṁ. Katame cattāro?
“Bhikkhus, these four people are found in the world. What four?
इध, भिक्खवे, एकच्चो पुग्गलो मेत्तासहगतेन चेतसा एकं दिसं फरित्वा विहरति, तथा दुतियं तथा ततियं तथा चतुत्थं। इति उद्धमधो तिरियं सब्बधि सब्बत्तताय सब्बावन्तं लोकं मेत्तासहगतेन चेतसा विपुलेन महग्गतेन अप्पमाणेन अवेरेन अब्यापज्जेन फरित्वा विहरति। सो यदेव तत्थ होति रूपगतं वेदनागतं सञ्ञागतं सङ्खारगतं विञ्ञाणगतं ते धम्मे अनिच्चतो दुक्खतो रोगतो गण्डतो सल्लतो अघतो आबाधतो परतो पलोकतो सुञ्ञतो अनत्ततो समनुपस्सति। सो कायस्स भेदा परं मरणा सुद्धावासानं देवानं सहब्यतं उपपज्जति। अयं, भिक्खवे, उपपत्ति असाधारणा पुथुज्जनेहि।
Idha, bhikkhave, ekacco puggalo mettāsahagatena cetasā ekaṁ disaṁ pharitvā viharati, tathā dutiyaṁ tathā tatiyaṁ tathā catutthaṁ. Iti uddhamadho tiriyaṁ sabbadhi sabbattatāya sabbāvantaṁ lokaṁ mettāsahagatena cetasā vipulena mahaggatena appamāṇena averena abyāpajjena pharitvā viharati. So yadeva tattha hoti rūpagataṁ vedanāgataṁ saññāgataṁ saṅkhāragataṁ viññāṇagataṁ te dhamme aniccato dukkhato rogato gaṇḍato sallato aghato ābādhato parato palokato suññato anattato samanupassati. So kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā suddhāvāsānaṁ devānaṁ sahabyataṁ upapajjati. Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, upapatti asādhāraṇā puthujjanehi.
Firstly, a person meditates spreading a heart full of love to one direction, and to the second, and to the third, and to the fourth. In the same way above, below, across, everywhere, all around, they spread a heart full of love to the whole world—abundant, expansive, limitless, free of enmity and ill will. They contemplate the phenomena there—included in form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness—as impermanent, as suffering, as diseased, as a boil, as a dart, as misery, as an affliction, as alien, as falling apart, as empty, as not-self. When their body breaks up, after death, they’re reborn in the company of the gods of the pure abodes. This rebirth is not shared with ordinary people.
पुन चपरं, भिक्खवे, इधेकच्चो पुग्गलो करुणा …पे… मुदिता …पे… उपेक्खासहगतेन चेतसा एकं दिसं फरित्वा विहरति, तथा दुतियं तथा ततियं तथा चतुत्थं। इति उद्धमधो तिरियं सब्बधि सब्बत्तताय सब्बावन्तं लोकं उपेक्खासहगतेन चेतसा विपुलेन महग्गतेन अप्पमाणेन अवेरेन अब्यापज्जेन फरित्वा विहरति। सो यदेव तत्थ होति रूपगतं वेदनागतं सञ्ञागतं सङ्खारगतं विञ्ञाणगतं ते धम्मे अनिच्चतो दुक्खतो रोगतो गण्डतो सल्लतो अघतो आबाधतो परतो पलोकतो सुञ्ञतो अनत्ततो समनुपस्सति। सो कायस्स भेदा परं मरणा सुद्धावासानं देवानं सहब्यतं उपपज्जति। अयं, भिक्खवे, उपपत्ति असाधारणा पुथुज्जनेहि।
Puna caparaṁ, bhikkhave, idhekacco puggalo karuṇā …pe… muditā …pe… upekkhāsahagatena cetasā ekaṁ disaṁ pharitvā viharati, tathā dutiyaṁ tathā tatiyaṁ tathā catutthaṁ. Iti uddhamadho tiriyaṁ sabbadhi sabbattatāya sabbāvantaṁ lokaṁ upekkhāsahagatena cetasā vipulena mahaggatena appamāṇena averena abyāpajjena pharitvā viharati. So yadeva tattha hoti rūpagataṁ vedanāgataṁ saññāgataṁ saṅkhāragataṁ viññāṇagataṁ te dhamme aniccato dukkhato rogato gaṇḍato sallato aghato ābādhato parato palokato suññato anattato samanupassati.

Furthermore, a person meditates spreading a heart full of compassion … rejoicing … equanimity to one direction, and to the second, and to the third, and to the fourth. In the same way above, below, across, everywhere, all around, they spread a heart full of equanimity to the whole world—abundant, expansive, limitless, free of enmity and ill will. They contemplate the phenomena there—included in form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness—as impermanent, as suffering, as diseased, as a boil, as a dart, as misery, as an affliction, as alien, as falling apart, as empty, as not-self. When their body breaks up, after death, they’re reborn in the company of the gods of the pure abodes. This rebirth is not shared with ordinary people.
इमे खो, भिक्खवे, चत्तारो पुग्गला सन्तो संविज्जमाना लोकस्मिन्ति।
Ime kho, bhikkhave, cattāro puggalā santo saṁvijjamānā lokasminti.
These are the four people found in the world.”
