2. Moḷiyaphaggunasuttavaṇṇanā

12. Dutiye sambhavesīnaṃ vā anuggahāyāti imasmiṃyeva ṭhāne bhagavā desanaṃ niṭṭhāpesi. Kasmā? Diṭṭhigatikassa nisinnattā. Tassañhi parisati moḷiyaphagguno nāma bhikkhu diṭṭhigatiko nisinno. Atha satthā cintesi – ‘‘ayaṃ uṭṭhahitvā maṃ pañhaṃ pucchissati, athassāhaṃ vissajjessāmī’’ti pucchāya okāsadānatthaṃ desanaṃ niṭṭhāpesi. Moḷiyaphaggunoti moḷīti cūḷā vuccati. Yathāha –

‘‘Chetvāna moḷiṃ varagandhavāsitaṃ

Vehāyasaṃ ukkhipi sakyapuṅgavo;

Ratanacaṅkoṭavarena vāsavo,

Sahassanetto sirasā paṭiggahī’’ti.

Sā tassa gihikāle mahantā ahosi. Tenassa ‘‘moḷiyaphagguno’’ti saṅkhā udapādi. Pabbajitampi naṃ teneva nāmena sañjānanti. Etadavocāti desanānusandhiṃ ghaṭento etaṃ ‘‘ko nu kho, bhante, viññāṇāhāraṃ āhāretī’’ti vacanaṃ avoca. Tassattho – bhante, ko nāma so, yo etaṃ viññāṇāhāraṃ khādati vā bhuñjati vāti?

Kasmā panāyaṃ itare tayo āhāre apucchitvā imameva pucchatīti? Jānāmīti laddhiyā. So hi mahante piṇḍe katvāva kabaḷīkārāhāraṃ bhuñjante passati, tenassa taṃ jānāmīti laddhi. Tittiravaṭṭakamorakukkuṭādayo pana mātusamphassena yāpente disvā ‘‘ete phassāhārena yāpentī’’ti tassa laddhi. Kacchapā pana attano utusamaye mahāsamuddato nikkhamitvā samuddatīre vālikantare aṇḍāni ṭhapetvā vālikāya paṭicchādetvā mahāsamuddameva otaranti. Tāni mātuanussaraṇavasena na pūtīni honti. Tāni manosañcetanāhārena yāpentīti tassa laddhi. Kiñcāpi therassa ayaṃ laddhi, na pana etāya laddhiyā imaṃ pañhaṃ pucchati . Diṭṭhigatiko hi ummattakasadiso. Yathā ummattako pacchiṃ gahetvā antaravīthiṃ otiṇṇo gomayampi pāsāṇampi gūthampi khajjakhaṇḍampi taṃ taṃ manāpampi amanāpampi gahetvā pacchiyaṃ pakkhipati. Evameva diṭṭhigatiko yuttampi ayuttampi pucchati. So ‘‘kasmā imaṃ pucchasī’’ti na niggahetabbo, pucchitapucchitaṭṭhāne pana gahaṇameva nisedhetabbaṃ. Teneva naṃ bhagavā ‘‘kasmā evaṃ pucchasī’’ti avatvā gahitagāhameva tassa mocetuṃ no kallo pañhotiādimāha.

Tattha no kalloti ayutto. Āhāretīti ahaṃ na vadāmīti ahaṃ koci satto vā puggalo vā āhāretīti na vadāmi. Āhāretīti cāhaṃ vadeyyanti yadi ahaṃ āhāretīti vadeyyaṃ. Tatrassa kallo pañhoti tasmiṃ mayā evaṃ vutte ayaṃ pañho yutto bhaveyya. Kissa nu kho, bhante, viññāṇāhāroti, bhante, ayaṃ viññāṇāhāro katamassa dhammassa paccayoti attho. Tatra kallaṃ veyyākaraṇanti tasmiṃ evaṃ pucchite pañhe imaṃ veyyākaraṇaṃ yuttaṃ ‘‘viññāṇāhāro āyatiṃ punabbhavābhinibbattiyā paccayo’’ti. Ettha ca viññāṇāhāroti paṭisandhicittaṃ. Āyatiṃ punabbhavābhinibbattīti teneva viññāṇena sahuppannanāmarūpaṃ. Tasmiṃ bhūte sati saḷāyatananti tasmiṃ punabbhavābhinibbattisaṅkhāte nāmarūpe jāte sati saḷāyatanaṃ hotīti attho.

Saḷāyatanapaccayāphassoti idhāpi bhagavā uttari pañhassa okāsaṃ dento desanaṃ niṭṭhāpesi. Diṭṭhigatiko hi navapucchaṃ uppādetuṃ na sakkoti, niddiṭṭhaṃ niddiṭṭhaṃyeva pana gaṇhitvā pucchati, tenassa bhagavā okāsaṃ adāsi. Attho panassa sabbapadesu vuttanayeneva gahetabbo. ‘‘Ko nu kho, bhante, bhavatī’’ti kasmā na pucchati? Diṭṭhigatikassa hi satto nāma bhūto nibbattoyevāti laddhi, tasmā attano laddhiviruddhaṃ idanti na pucchati. Apica idappaccayā idaṃ idappaccayā idanti bahūsu ṭhānesu kathitattā saññattiṃ upagato, tenāpi na pucchati. Satthāpi ‘‘imassa bahuṃ pucchantassāpi titti natthi, tucchapucchameva pucchatī’’ti ito paṭṭhāya desanaṃ ekābaddhaṃ katvā desesi. Channaṃ tvevāti yato paṭṭhāya desanāruḷhaṃ, tameva gahetvā desanaṃ vivaṭṭento evamāha. Imasmiṃ pana sutte viññāṇanāmarūpānaṃ antare eko sandhi, vedanātaṇhānaṃ antare eko, bhavajātīnaṃ antare ekoti. Dutiyaṃ.
