With Rāhula
अथ खो आयस्मा राहुलो येन भगवा तेनुपसङ्कमि; उपसङ्कमित्वा भगवन्तं अभिवादेत्वा एकमन्तं निसीदि। एकमन्तं निसिन्नं खो आयस्मन्तं राहुलं भगवा एतदवोच:
Atha kho āyasmā rāhulo yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinnaṁ kho āyasmantaṁ rāhulaṁ bhagavā etadavoca:
Then Venerable Rāhula went up to the Buddha, bowed, and sat down to one side. The Buddha said to him:
“या च, राहुल, अज्झत्तिका पथवीधातु या च बाहिरा पथवीधातु, पथवीधातुरेवेसा। ‘तं नेतं मम, नेसोहमस्मि, न मेसो अत्ताऽति, एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दट्ठब्बं। एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दिस्वा पथवीधातुया निब्बिन्दति, पथवीधातुया चित्तं विराजेति।
“Yā ca, rāhula, ajjhattikā pathavīdhātu yā ca bāhirā pathavīdhātu, pathavīdhāturevesā. ‘Taṁ netaṁ mama, nesohamasmi, na meso attā’ti, evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya daṭṭhabbaṁ. Evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya disvā pathavīdhātuyā nibbindati, pathavīdhātuyā cittaṁ virājeti.
“Rāhula, the interior earth element and the exterior earth element are just the earth element. This should be truly seen with right understanding like this: ‘This is not mine, I am not this, this is not my self.’ When you truly see with right understanding, you reject the earth element, detaching the mind from the earth element.
या च, राहुल, अज्झत्तिका आपोधातु या च बाहिरा आपोधातु, आपोधातुरेवेसा। ‘तं नेतं मम, नेसोहमस्मि, न मेसो अत्ताऽति, एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दट्ठब्बं। एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दिस्वा आपोधातुया निब्बिन्दति, आपोधातुया चित्तं विराजेति।
Yā ca, rāhula, ajjhattikā āpodhātu yā ca bāhirā āpodhātu, āpodhāturevesā. ‘Taṁ netaṁ mama, nesohamasmi, na meso attā’ti, evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya daṭṭhabbaṁ. Evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya disvā āpodhātuyā nibbindati, āpodhātuyā cittaṁ virājeti.
The interior water element and the exterior water element are just the water element.

या च, राहुल, अज्झत्तिका तेजोधातु या च बाहिरा तेजोधातु, तेजोधातुरेवेसा। ‘तं नेतं मम, नेसोहमस्मि, न मेसो अत्ताऽति, एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दट्ठब्बं। एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दिस्वा तेजोधातुया निब्बिन्दति, तेजोधातुया चित्तं विराजेति।
Yā ca, rāhula, ajjhattikā tejodhātu yā ca bāhirā tejodhātu, tejodhāturevesā. ‘Taṁ netaṁ mama, nesohamasmi, na meso attā’ti, evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya daṭṭhabbaṁ. Evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya disvā tejodhātuyā nibbindati, tejodhātuyā cittaṁ virājeti.
The interior fire element and the exterior fire element are just the fire element.

या च, राहुल, अज्झत्तिका वायोधातु या च बाहिरा वायोधातु, वायोधातुरेवेसा। ‘तं नेतं मम, नेसोहमस्मि, न मेसो अत्ताऽति, एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दट्ठब्बं। एवमेतं यथाभूतं सम्मप्पञ्ञाय दिस्वा वायोधातुया निब्बिन्दति, वायोधातुया चित्तं विराजेति।
Yā ca, rāhula, ajjhattikā vāyodhātu yā ca bāhirā vāyodhātu, vāyodhāturevesā. ‘Taṁ netaṁ mama, nesohamasmi, na meso attā’ti, evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya daṭṭhabbaṁ. Evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya disvā vāyodhātuyā nibbindati, vāyodhātuyā cittaṁ virājeti.

This should be truly seen with right understanding like this: ‘This is not mine, I am not this, this is not my self.’ When you truly see with right understanding, you reject the air element, detaching the mind from the air element.
यतो खो, राहुल, भिक्खु इमासु चतूसु धातूसु नेवत्तानं न अत्तनियं समनुपस्सति, अयं वुच्चति, राहुल, भिक्खु अच्छेच्छि तण्हं, विवत्तयि संयोजनं, सम्मा मानाभिसमया अन्तमकासि दुक्खस्सा”ति।
Yato kho, rāhula, bhikkhu imāsu catūsu dhātūsu nevattānaṁ na attaniyaṁ samanupassati, ayaṁ vuccati, rāhula, bhikkhu acchecchi taṇhaṁ, vivattayi saṁyojanaṁ, sammā mānābhisamayā antamakāsi dukkhassā”ti.
When a bhikkhu sees these four elements as neither self nor belonging to self, they’re called a bhikkhu who has cut off craving, untied the fetters, and by rightly comprehending conceit has made an end of suffering.”
