The Spiritual Path (1st)
सावत्थिनिदानं।
Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
At Sāvatthī.
“ब्रह्मचरियञ्च वो, भिक्खवे, देसेस्सामि, ब्रह्मचरियफलानि च। तं सुणाथ।
“Brahmacariyañca vo, bhikkhave, desessāmi, brahmacariyaphalāni ca. Taṁ suṇātha.
“Bhikkhus, I will teach you the spiritual path and the fruits of the spiritual path. Listen …
कतमञ्च, भिक्खवे, ब्रह्मचरियं? अयमेव अरियो अट्ठङ्गिको मग्गो, सेय्यथिदं—सम्मादिट्ठि …पे… सम्मासमाधि। इदं वुच्चति, भिक्खवे, ब्रह्मचरियं।
Katamañca, bhikkhave, brahmacariyaṁ? Ayameva ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo, seyyathidaṁ—sammādiṭṭhi …pe… sammāsamādhi. Idaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, brahmacariyaṁ.
And what is the spiritual path? It is simply this noble eightfold path, that is: right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion. This is called the spiritual path.
कतमानि च, भिक्खवे, ब्रह्मचरियफलानि? सोतापत्तिफलं, सकदागामिफलं, अनागामिफलं, अरहत्तफलं—इमानि वुच्चन्ति, भिक्खवे, ब्रह्मचरियफलानी”ति।
Katamāni ca, bhikkhave, brahmacariyaphalāni? Sotāpattiphalaṁ, sakadāgāmiphalaṁ, anāgāmiphalaṁ, arahattaphalaṁ—imāni vuccanti, bhikkhave, brahmacariyaphalānī”ti.
And what are the fruits of the spiritual path? The fruits of stream-entry, once-return, non-return, and perfection. These are called the fruits of the spiritual path.”
