Slanting East
“सेय्यथापि, भिक्खवे, गङ्गा नदी पाचीननिन्ना पाचीनपोणा पाचीनपब्भारा; एवमेव खो, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु अरियं अट्ठङ्गिकं मग्गं भावेन्तो अरियं अट्ठङ्गिकं मग्गं बहुलीकरोन्तो निब्बाननिन्नो होति निब्बानपोणो निब्बानपब्भारो।
“Seyyathāpi, bhikkhave, gaṅgā nadī pācīnaninnā pācīnapoṇā pācīnapabbhārā; evameva kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhu ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bhāvento ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bahulīkaronto nibbānaninno hoti nibbānapoṇo nibbānapabbhāro.
“Bhikkhus, the Ganges river slants, slopes, and inclines to the east. In the same way, a bhikkhu who develops and cultivates the noble eightfold path slants, slopes, and inclines to Nibbana.
कथञ्च, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु अरियं अट्ठङ्गिकं मग्गं भावेन्तो अरियं अट्ठङ्गिकं मग्गं बहुलीकरोन्तो निब्बाननिन्नो होति निब्बानपोणो निब्बानपब्भारो? इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु सम्मादिट्ठिं भावेति रागविनयपरियोसानं दोसविनयपरियोसानं मोहविनयपरियोसानं …पे… सम्मासमाधिं भावेति रागविनयपरियोसानं दोसविनयपरियोसानं मोहविनयपरियोसानं। एवं खो, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु अरियं अट्ठङ्गिकं मग्गं भावेन्तो अरियं अट्ठङ्गिकं मग्गं बहुलीकरोन्तो निब्बाननिन्नो होति निब्बानपोणो निब्बानपब्भारो”ति।
Kathañca, bhikkhave, bhikkhu ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bhāvento ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bahulīkaronto nibbānaninno hoti nibbānapoṇo nibbānapabbhāro? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu sammādiṭṭhiṁ bhāveti rāgavinayapariyosānaṁ dosavinayapariyosānaṁ mohavinayapariyosānaṁ …pe… sammāsamādhiṁ bhāveti rāgavinayapariyosānaṁ dosavinayapariyosānaṁ mohavinayapariyosānaṁ. Evaṁ kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhu ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bhāvento ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bahulīkaronto nibbānaninno hoti nibbānapoṇo nibbānapabbhāro”ti.
And how does a bhikkhu who develops the noble eightfold path slant, slope, and incline to Nibbana? It’s when a bhikkhu develops right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion, which culminate in the removal of greed, hate, and delusion. That’s how a bhikkhu who develops and cultivates the noble eightfold path slants, slopes, and inclines to Nibbana.”
