“पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो गिलानो दूपट्ठाको होति। कतमेहि पञ्चहि? असप्पायकारी होति, सप्पाये मत्तं न जानाति, भेसज्जं नप्पटिसेविता होति, अत्थकामस्स गिलानुपट्ठाकस्स न यथाभूतं आबाधं आविकत्ता होति अभिक्कमन्तं वा अभिक्कमतीति पटिक्कमन्तं वा पटिक्कमतीति ठितं वा ठितोति, उप्पन्नानं सारीरिकानं वेदनानं दुक्खानं तिब्बानं खरानं कटुकानं असातानं अमनापानं पाणहरानं अनधिवासकजातिको होति। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो गिलानो दूपट्ठाको होति।
“Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato gilāno dūpaṭṭhāko1 hoti. Katamehi pañcahi? Asappāyakārī hoti, sappāye mattaṁ na jānāti, bhesajjaṁ nappaṭisevitā hoti, atthakāmassa gilānupaṭṭhākassa na yathābhūtaṁ ābādhaṁ āvikattā hoti abhikkamantaṁ vā abhikkamatīti paṭikkamantaṁ vā paṭikkamatīti ṭhitaṁ vā ṭhitoti, uppannānaṁ sārīrikānaṁ vedanānaṁ dukkhānaṁ tibbānaṁ2 kharānaṁ kaṭukānaṁ asātānaṁ amanāpānaṁ pāṇaharānaṁ anadhivāsakajātiko hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato gilāno dūpaṭṭhāko hoti.
“Bhikkhus, a patient with five qualities is hard to care for. What five? They do what is unsuitable. They don’t know moderation in what is suitable. They don’t take their medicine. Though their carer wants what’s best for them, they don’t accurately report their symptoms by saying when they’re getting worse, getting better, or staying the same. And they cannot endure physical pain—sharp, severe, acute, unpleasant, disagreeable, and life-threatening. A patient with these five qualities is hard to care for.
पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो गिलानो सूपट्ठाको होति। कतमेहि पञ्चहि? सप्पायकारी होति, सप्पाये मत्तं जानाति, भेसज्जं पटिसेविता होति, अत्थकामस्स गिलानुपट्ठाकस्स यथाभूतं आबाधं आविकत्ता होति अभिक्कमन्तं वा अभिक्कमतीति पटिक्कमन्तं वा पटिक्कमतीति ठितं वा ठितोति, उप्पन्नानं सारीरिकानं वेदनानं दुक्खानं तिब्बानं खरानं कटुकानं असातानं अमनापानं पाणहरानं अधिवासकजातिको होति। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो गिलानो सूपट्ठाको होती”ति।
Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato gilāno sūpaṭṭhāko hoti. Katamehi pañcahi? Sappāyakārī hoti, sappāye mattaṁ jānāti, bhesajjaṁ paṭisevitā hoti, atthakāmassa gilānupaṭṭhākassa yathābhūtaṁ ābādhaṁ āvikattā hoti abhikkamantaṁ vā abhikkamatīti paṭikkamantaṁ vā paṭikkamatīti ṭhitaṁ vā ṭhitoti, uppannānaṁ sārīrikānaṁ vedanānaṁ dukkhānaṁ tibbānaṁ kharānaṁ kaṭukānaṁ asātānaṁ amanāpānaṁ pāṇaharānaṁ adhivāsakajātiko hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato gilāno sūpaṭṭhāko hotī”ti.
A patient with five qualities is easy to care for. What five? They do what is suitable. They know moderation in what is suitable. They take their medicine. Because their carer wants what’s best for them, they accurately report their symptoms by saying when they’re getting worse, getting better, or staying the same. And they can endure physical pain—sharp, severe, acute, unpleasant, disagreeable, and life-threatening. A patient with these five qualities is easy to care for.”
