Dangers and Threats (2nd)
“यतो खो, भिक्खवे, अरियसावकस्स पञ्च भयानि वेरानि वूपसन्तानि होन्ति, चतूहि च सोतापत्तियङ्गेहि समन्नागतो होति, सो आकङ्खमानो अत्तनाव अत्तानं ब्याकरेय्य: ‘खीणनिरयोम्हि खीणतिरच्छानयोनि खीणपेत्तिविसयो खीणापायदुग्गतिविनिपातो; सोतापन्नोहमस्मि अविनिपातधम्मो नियतो सम्बोधिपरायणोऽ”ति।
“Yato kho, bhikkhave, ariyasāvakassa pañca bhayāni verāni vūpasantāni honti, catūhi ca sotāpattiyaṅgehi samannāgato hoti, so ākaṅkhamāno attanāva attānaṁ byākareyya: ‘khīṇanirayomhi khīṇatiracchānayoni khīṇapettivisayo khīṇāpāyaduggativinipāto; sotāpannohamasmi avinipātadhammo niyato sambodhiparāyaṇo’”ti.
“Bhikkhus, when a noble disciple has quelled five dangers and threats, and has the four factors of stream-entry, they may, if they wish, declare of themselves: ‘I’ve finished with rebirth in hell, the animal realm, and the ghost realm. I’ve finished with all places of loss, bad places, the underworld. I am a stream-enterer! I’m not liable to be reborn in the underworld, and am bound for awakening.’
कतमानि पञ्च भयानि वेरानि वूपसन्तानि होन्ति? यं, भिक्खवे, पाणातिपाती पाणातिपातपच्चया दिट्ठधम्मिकम्पि भयं वेरं पसवति, सम्परायिकम्पि भयं वेरं पसवति, चेतसिकम्पि दुक्खं दोमनस्सं पटिसंवेदेति, पाणातिपाता पटिविरतो …पे… एवं तं भयं वेरं वूपसन्तं होति।
Katamāni pañca bhayāni verāni vūpasantāni honti? Yaṁ, bhikkhave, pāṇātipātī pāṇātipātapaccayā diṭṭhadhammikampi bhayaṁ veraṁ pasavati, samparāyikampi bhayaṁ veraṁ pasavati, cetasikampi dukkhaṁ domanassaṁ paṭisaṁvedeti, pāṇātipātā paṭivirato …pe… evaṁ taṁ bhayaṁ veraṁ vūpasantaṁ hoti.
What are the five dangers and threats they have quelled? Anyone who kills living creatures creates dangers and threats both in the present life and in lives to come, and experiences mental pain and sadness. Anyone who refrains from killing living creatures creates no dangers and threats either in the present life or in lives to come, and doesn’t experience mental pain and sadness. So that danger and threat is quelled for anyone who refrains from killing living creatures.
यं, भिक्खवे, अदिन्नादायी …पे… सुरामेरयमज्जपमादट्ठायी सुरामेरयमज्जपमादट्ठानपच्चया दिट्ठधम्मिकम्पि भयं वेरं पसवति, सम्परायिकम्पि भयं वेरं पसवति, चेतसिकम्पि दुक्खं दोमनस्सं पटिसंवेदेति, सुरामेरयमज्जपमादट्ठाना पटिविरतो नेव दिट्ठधम्मिकम्पि भयं वेरं पसवति, न सम्परायिकम्पि भयं वेरं पसवति, न चेतसिकम्पि दुक्खं दोमनस्सं पटिसंवेदेति। सुरामेरयमज्जपमादट्ठाना पटिविरतस्स एवं तं भयं वेरं वूपसन्तं होति। इमानि पञ्च भयानि वेरानि वूपसन्तानि होन्ति।
Yaṁ, bhikkhave, adinnādāyī …pe… surāmerayamajjapamādaṭṭhāyī surāmerayamajjapamādaṭṭhānapaccayā diṭṭhadhammikampi bhayaṁ veraṁ pasavati, samparāyikampi bhayaṁ veraṁ pasavati, cetasikampi dukkhaṁ domanassaṁ paṭisaṁvedeti, surāmerayamajjapamādaṭṭhānā paṭivirato neva diṭṭhadhammikampi bhayaṁ veraṁ pasavati, na samparāyikampi bhayaṁ veraṁ pasavati, na cetasikampi dukkhaṁ domanassaṁ paṭisaṁvedeti. Surāmerayamajjapamādaṭṭhānā paṭiviratassa evaṁ taṁ bhayaṁ veraṁ vūpasantaṁ hoti. Imāni pañca bhayāni verāni vūpasantāni honti.
Anyone who steals … commits sexual misconduct … lies … Anyone who uses alcoholic drinks that cause negligence creates dangers and threats both in the present life and in lives to come, and experiences mental pain and sadness. Anyone who refrains from using alcoholic drinks that cause negligence creates no dangers and threats either in the present life or in lives to come, and doesn’t experience mental pain and sadness. So that danger and threat is quelled for anyone who refrains from using alcoholic drinks that cause negligence. These are the five dangers and threats they have quelled.
कतमेहि चतूहि सोतापत्तियङ्गेहि समन्नागतो होति? इध, भिक्खवे, अरियसावको बुद्धे अवेच्चप्पसादेन समन्नागतो होति: ‘इतिपि सो भगवा …पे… सत्था देवमनुस्सानं बुद्धो भगवाऽति। धम्मे …पे… सङ्घे … अरियकन्तेहि सीलेहि समन्नागतो होति अखण्डेहि अच्छिद्देहि असबलेहि अकम्मासेहि भुजिस्सेहि विञ्ञुप्पसत्थेहि अपरामट्ठेहि समाधिसंवत्तनिकेहि। इमेहि चतूहि सोतापत्तियङ्गेहि समन्नागतो होति।
Katamehi catūhi sotāpattiyaṅgehi samannāgato hoti? Idha, bhikkhave, ariyasāvako buddhe aveccappasādena samannāgato hoti: ‘itipi so bhagavā …pe… satthā devamanussānaṁ buddho bhagavā’ti. Dhamme …pe… saṅghe … ariyakantehi sīlehi samannāgato hoti akhaṇḍehi acchiddehi asabalehi akammāsehi bhujissehi viññuppasatthehi aparāmaṭṭhehi samādhisaṁvattanikehi. Imehi catūhi sotāpattiyaṅgehi samannāgato hoti.
What are the four factors of stream-entry that they have? When a noble disciple has experiential confidence in the Buddha … the teaching … the Saṅgha … And a noble disciple’s ethical conduct is loved by the noble ones, unbroken, impeccable, spotless, and unmarred, liberating, praised by sensible people, not mistaken, and leading to immersion. These are the four factors of stream-entry that they have.
यतो खो, भिक्खवे, अरियसावकस्स इमानि पञ्च भयानि वेरानि वूपसन्तानि होन्ति, इमेहि च चतूहि सोतापत्तियङ्गेहि समन्नागतो होति, सो आकङ्खमानो अत्तनाव अत्तानं ब्याकरेय्य: ‘खीणनिरयोम्हि खीणतिरच्छानयोनि खीणपेत्तिविसयो खीणापायदुग्गतिविनिपातो; सोतापन्नोहमस्मि अविनिपातधम्मो नियतो सम्बोधिपरायणोऽ”ति।
Yato kho, bhikkhave, ariyasāvakassa imāni pañca bhayāni verāni vūpasantāni honti, imehi ca catūhi sotāpattiyaṅgehi samannāgato hoti, so ākaṅkhamāno attanāva attānaṁ byākareyya: ‘khīṇanirayomhi khīṇatiracchānayoni khīṇapettivisayo khīṇāpāyaduggativinipāto; sotāpannohamasmi avinipātadhammo niyato sambodhiparāyaṇo’”ti.
When a noble disciple has quelled these five dangers and threats, and has these four factors of stream-entry, they may, if they wish, declare of themselves: ‘I’ve finished with rebirth in hell, the animal realm, and the ghost realm. I’ve finished with all places of loss, bad places, the underworld. I am a stream-enterer! I’m not liable to be reborn in the underworld, and am bound for awakening.’”
