एकं समयं भगवा कोसम्बियं विहरति घोसितारामे। अथ खो आयस्मा आनन्दो येन भगवा तेनुपसङ्कमि; उपसङ्कमित्वा भगवन्तं अभिवादेत्वा एकमन्तं निसीदि। एकमन्तं निसिन्नो खो आयस्मा आनन्दो भगवन्तं एतदवोच:
Ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā kosambiyaṁ viharati ghositārāme. Atha kho āyasmā ānando yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā ānando bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
At one time the Buddha was staying near Kosambī, in Ghosita’s Monastery. Then Venerable Ānanda went up to the Buddha, bowed, sat down to one side, and said to him:
“को नु खो, भन्ते, हेतु को पच्चयो, येन मातुगामो नेव सभायं निसीदति, न कम्मन्तं पयोजेति, न कम्बोजं गच्छती”ति?
“Ko nu kho, bhante, hetu ko paccayo, yena mātugāmo neva sabhāyaṁ nisīdati, na kammantaṁ payojeti, na kambojaṁ gacchatī”ti?
“Sir, what is the cause, what is the reason why females don’t attend council meetings, work for a living, or travel to Persia?”
“कोधनो, आनन्द, मातुगामो; इस्सुकी, आनन्द, मातुगामो; मच्छरी, आनन्द, मातुगामो; दुप्पञ्ञो, आनन्द, मातुगामो—अयं खो, आनन्द, हेतु अयं पच्चयो, येन मातुगामो नेव सभायं निसीदति, न कम्मन्तं पयोजेति, न कम्बोजं गच्छती”ति।
“Kodhano, ānanda, mātugāmo; issukī, ānanda, mātugāmo; maccharī, ānanda, mātugāmo; duppañño, ānanda, mātugāmo—ayaṁ kho, ānanda, hetu ayaṁ paccayo, yena mātugāmo neva sabhāyaṁ nisīdati, na kammantaṁ payojeti, na kambojaṁ gacchatī”ti.
“Ānanda, females are irritable, jealous, stingy, and unintelligent. This is the cause, this is the reason why females don’t attend council meetings, work for a living, or travel to Persia.”
