“पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो सुणन्तोपि सद्धम्मं अभब्बो नियामं ओक्कमितुं कुसलेसु धम्मेसु सम्मत्तं। कतमेहि पञ्चहि? कथं परिभोति, कथिकं परिभोति, अत्तानं परिभोति, दुप्पञ्ञो होति जळो एळमूगो, अनञ्ञाते अञ्ञातमानी होति। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो सुणन्तोपि सद्धम्मं अभब्बो नियामं ओक्कमितुं कुसलेसु धम्मेसु सम्मत्तं।
“Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato suṇantopi saddhammaṁ abhabbo niyāmaṁ okkamituṁ kusalesu dhammesu sammattaṁ. Katamehi pañcahi? Kathaṁ paribhoti, kathikaṁ paribhoti, attānaṁ paribhoti, duppañño hoti jaḷo eḷamūgo, anaññāte aññātamānī hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato suṇantopi saddhammaṁ abhabbo niyāmaṁ okkamituṁ kusalesu dhammesu sammattaṁ.
“Bhikkhus, someone with five qualities is unable to enter the sure path with regards to skillful qualities even when listening to the true teaching. What five? They disparage the talk, the speaker, or themselves. They’re witless, dull, and stupid. They think they know what they don’t know. Someone with these five qualities is unable to enter the sure path with regards to skillful qualities, even when listening to the true teaching.
पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो सुणन्तो सद्धम्मं भब्बो नियामं ओक्कमितुं कुसलेसु धम्मेसु सम्मत्तं। कतमेहि पञ्चहि? न कथं परिभोति, न कथिकं परिभोति, न अत्तानं परिभोति, पञ्ञवा होति अजळो अनेळमूगो, न अनञ्ञाते अञ्ञातमानी होति। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो सुणन्तो सद्धम्मं भब्बो नियामं ओक्कमितुं कुसलेसु धम्मेसु सम्मत्तन्”ति।
Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato suṇanto saddhammaṁ bhabbo niyāmaṁ okkamituṁ kusalesu dhammesu sammattaṁ. Katamehi pañcahi? Na kathaṁ paribhoti, na kathikaṁ paribhoti, na attānaṁ paribhoti, paññavā hoti ajaḷo aneḷamūgo, na anaññāte aññātamānī hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato suṇanto saddhammaṁ bhabbo niyāmaṁ okkamituṁ kusalesu dhammesu sammattan”ti.
Someone with five qualities is able to enter the sure path with regards to skillful qualities when listening to the true teaching. What five? They don’t disparage the talk, the speaker, or themselves. They’re wise, bright, and clever. They don’t think they know what they don’t know. Someone with these five qualities is able to enter the sure path with regards to skillful qualities when listening to the true teaching.”
