Venerable Ānanda saw Venerable Sāriputta …
“इधाहं, आवुसो, सब्बसो नेवसञ्ञानासञ्ञायतनं समतिक्कम्म सञ्ञावेदयितनिरोधं उपसम्पज्ज विहरामि। तस्स मय्हं, आवुसो, न एवं होति: ‘अहं सञ्ञावेदयितनिरोधं समापज्जामीऽति वा ‘अहं सञ्ञावेदयितनिरोधं समापन्नोऽति वा ‘अहं सञ्ञावेदयितनिरोधा वुट्ठितोऽति वा”ति।
“Idhāhaṁ, āvuso, sabbaso nevasaññānāsaññāyatanaṁ samatikkamma saññāvedayitanirodhaṁ upasampajja viharāmi. Tassa mayhaṁ, āvuso, na evaṁ hoti: ‘ahaṁ saññāvedayitanirodhaṁ samāpajjāmī’ti vā ‘ahaṁ saññāvedayitanirodhaṁ samāpanno’ti vā ‘ahaṁ saññāvedayitanirodhā vuṭṭhito’ti vā”ti.
“Friend, going totally beyond the dimension of neither perception nor non-perception, I entered and remained in the cessation of perception and feeling. But it didn’t occur to me: ‘I am entering the cessation of perception and feeling’ or ‘I have entered the cessation of perception and feeling’ or ‘I am emerging from the cessation of perception and feeling’.”
तथा हि पनायस्मतो सारिपुत्तस्स दीघरत्तं अहङ्कारममङ्कारमानानुसया सुसमूहता। तस्मा आयस्मतो सारिपुत्तस्स न एवं होति: “‘अहं सञ्ञावेदयितनिरोधं समापज्जामीऽति वा ‘अहं सञ्ञावेदयितनिरोधं समापन्नोऽति वा ‘अहं सञ्ञावेदयितनिरोधा वुट्ठितोऽति वा”ति।
Tathā hi panāyasmato sāriputtassa dīgharattaṁ ahaṅkāramamaṅkāramānānusayā susamūhatā. Tasmā āyasmato sāriputtassa na evaṁ hoti: “‘ahaṁ saññāvedayitanirodhaṁ samāpajjāmī’ti vā ‘ahaṁ saññāvedayitanirodhaṁ samāpanno’ti vā ‘ahaṁ saññāvedayitanirodhā vuṭṭhito’ti vā”ti.
“That must be because Venerable Sāriputta has long ago totally eradicated ego, possessiveness, and the underlying tendency to conceit. That’s why it didn’t occur to you: ‘I am entering the cessation of perception and feeling’ or ‘I have entered the cessation of perception and feeling’ or ‘I am emerging from the cessation of perception and feeling’.”
