    With Kāḷigodhā

    एकं समयं भगवा सक्केसु विहरति कपिलवत्थुस्मिं निग्रोधारामे। अथ खो भगवा पुब्बण्हसमयं निवासेत्वा पत्तचीवरमादाय येन काळिगोधाय साकियानिया निवेसनं तेनुपसङ्कमि; उपसङ्कमित्वा पञ्ञत्ते आसने निसीदि। अथ खो काळिगोधा साकियानी येन भगवा तेनुपसङ्कमि; उपसङ्कमित्वा भगवन्तं अभिवादेत्वा एकमन्तं निसीदि। एकमन्तं निसिन्नं खो काळिगोधं साकियानिं भगवा एतदवोच:

    Ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sakkesu viharati kapilavatthusmiṁ nigrodhārāme. Atha kho bhagavā pubbaṇhasamayaṁ nivāsetvā pattacīvaramādāya yena kāḷigodhāya1 sākiyāniyā nivesanaṁ tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā paññatte āsane nisīdi. Atha kho kāḷigodhā sākiyānī yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinnaṁ kho kāḷigodhaṁ sākiyāniṁ bhagavā etadavoca:

    At one time the Buddha was staying in the land of the Sakyans, near Kapilavatthu in the Banyan Tree Monastery. Then the Buddha robed up in the morning and, taking his bowl and robe, went to the home of Kāḷigodhā the Sakyan lady, where he sat on the seat spread out. Then Kāḷigodhā went up to the Buddha, bowed, and sat down to one side. The Buddha said to her:

    “चतूहि खो, गोधे, धम्मेहि समन्नागता अरियसाविका सोतापन्ना होति अविनिपातधम्मा नियता सम्बोधिपरायणा। कतमेहि चतूहि? इध, गोधे, अरियसाविका बुद्धे अवेच्चप्पसादेन समन्नागता होति—इतिपि सो भगवा …पे… सत्था देवमनुस्सानं बुद्धो भगवाति। धम्मे …पे… सङ्घे …पे… विगतमलमच्छेरेन चेतसा अगारं अज्झावसति मुत्तचागा पयतपाणिनी वोस्सग्गरता याचयोगा दानसंविभागरता। इमेहि खो, गोधे, चतूहि धम्मेहि समन्नागता अरियसाविका सोतापन्ना होति अविनिपातधम्मा नियता सम्बोधिपरायणा”ति।

    “Catūhi kho, godhe, dhammehi samannāgatā ariyasāvikā sotāpannā hoti avinipātadhammā niyatā sambodhiparāyaṇā. Katamehi catūhi? Idha, godhe, ariyasāvikā buddhe aveccappasādena samannāgatā hoti—itipi so bhagavā …pe… satthā devamanussānaṁ buddho bhagavāti. Dhamme …pe… saṅghe …pe… vigatamalamaccherena cetasā agāraṁ ajjhāvasati muttacāgā payatapāṇinī2 vossaggaratā yācayogā dānasaṁvibhāgaratā. Imehi kho, godhe, catūhi dhammehi samannāgatā ariyasāvikā sotāpannā hoti avinipātadhammā niyatā sambodhiparāyaṇā”ti.

    “Godhā, a female noble disciple who has four things is a stream-enterer, not liable to be reborn in the underworld, bound for awakening. What four? It’s when a noble disciple has experiential confidence in the Buddha … the teaching … the Saṅgha … And they live at home rid of the stain of stinginess, freely generous, open-handed, loving to let go, committed to charity, loving to give and to share. A female noble disciple who has these four things is a stream-enterer, not liable to be reborn in the underworld, bound for awakening.”

    “यानिमानि, भन्ते, भगवता चत्तारि सोतापत्तियङ्गानि देसितानि, संविज्जन्ते धम्मा मयि, अहञ्च तेसु धम्मेसु सन्दिस्सामि। अहञ्हि, भन्ते, बुद्धे अवेच्चप्पसादेन समन्नागता—इतिपि सो भगवा …पे… सत्था देवमनुस्सानं बुद्धो भगवाति। धम्मे …पे… सङ्घे …पे… यं खो पन किञ्चि कुले देय्यधम्मं सब्बं तं अप्पटिविभत्तं सीलवन्तेहि कल्याणधम्मेही”ति।

    “Yānimāni, bhante, bhagavatā cattāri sotāpattiyaṅgāni desitāni, saṁvijjante dhammā mayi, ahañca tesu dhammesu sandissāmi. Ahañhi, bhante, buddhe aveccappasādena samannāgatā—itipi so bhagavā …pe… satthā devamanussānaṁ buddho bhagavāti. Dhamme …pe… saṅghe …pe… yaṁ kho pana kiñci kule deyyadhammaṁ sabbaṁ taṁ appaṭivibhattaṁ sīlavantehi kalyāṇadhammehī”ti.

    “Sir, these four factors of stream-entry that were taught by the Buddha are found in me, and I exhibit them. For I have experiential confidence in the Buddha … the teaching … the Saṅgha … And I share without reservation all the gifts available to give in our family with those who are ethical and of good character.”

    “लाभा ते, गोधे, सुलद्धं ते, गोधे। सोतापत्तिफलं तया, गोधे, ब्याकतन्”ति।

    “Lābhā te, godhe, suladdhaṁ te, godhe. Sotāpattiphalaṁ tayā, godhe, byākatan”ti.

    “You’re fortunate, Godhā, so very fortunate, You have declared the fruit of stream-entry.”
