    Honor

    अथ खो आयस्मतो सारिपुत्तस्स रहोगतस्स पटिसल्लीनस्स एवं चेतसो परिवितक्को उदपादि: “किं नु खो, भिक्खु, सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्या”ति?

    Atha kho āyasmato sāriputtassa rahogatassa paṭisallīnassa evaṁ cetaso parivitakko udapādi: “kiṁ nu kho, bhikkhu, sakkatvā garuṁ katvā upanissāya viharanto akusalaṁ pajaheyya, kusalaṁ bhāveyyā”ti?

    Then as Venerable Sāriputta was in private retreat this thought came to his mind, “What should a bhikkhu honor and respect and rely on, to give up the unskillful and develop the skillful?”

    अथ खो आयस्मतो सारिपुत्तस्स एतदहोसि: “सत्थारं खो, भिक्खु, सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्य। धम्मं खो, भिक्खु …पे… सङ्घं खो, भिक्खु …पे… सिक्खं खो, भिक्खु …पे… समाधिं खो, भिक्खु …पे… अप्पमादं खो, भिक्खु …पे… पटिसन्थारं खो, भिक्खु सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्या”ति।

    Atha kho āyasmato sāriputtassa etadahosi: “satthāraṁ kho, bhikkhu, sakkatvā garuṁ katvā upanissāya viharanto akusalaṁ pajaheyya, kusalaṁ bhāveyya. Dhammaṁ kho, bhikkhu …pe… saṅghaṁ kho, bhikkhu …pe… sikkhaṁ kho, bhikkhu …pe… samādhiṁ kho, bhikkhu …pe… appamādaṁ kho, bhikkhu …pe… paṭisanthāraṁ kho, bhikkhu sakkatvā garuṁ katvā upanissāya viharanto akusalaṁ pajaheyya, kusalaṁ bhāveyyā”ti.

    Then he thought, “A bhikkhu should honor and respect and rely on the Teacher … the teaching … the Saṅgha … the training … immersion … diligence … A bhikkhu should honor and respect and rely on hospitality, to give up the unskillful and develop the skillful.”

    अथ खो आयस्मतो सारिपुत्तस्स एतदहोसि: “इमे खो मे धम्मा परिसुद्धा परियोदाता, यन्नूनाहं इमे धम्मे गन्त्वा भगवतो आरोचेय्यं। एवं मे इमे धम्मा परिसुद्धा चेव भविस्सन्ति परिसुद्धसङ्खाततरा च। सेय्यथापि नाम पुरिसो सुवण्णनिक्खं अधिगच्छेय्य परिसुद्धं परियोदातं। तस्स एवमस्स: ‘अयं खो मे सुवण्णनिक्खो परिसुद्धो परियोदातो, यन्नूनाहं इमं सुवण्णनिक्खं गन्त्वा कम्मारानं दस्सेय्यं। एवं मे अयं सुवण्णनिक्खो सकम्मारगतो परिसुद्धो चेव भविस्सति परिसुद्धसङ्खाततरो च। एवमेवं मे इमे धम्मा परिसुद्धा परियोदाता, यन्नूनाहं इमे धम्मे गन्त्वा भगवतो आरोचेय्यं। एवं मे इमे धम्मा परिसुद्धा चेव भविस्सन्ति परिसुद्धसङ्खाततरा चाऽ”ति।

    Atha kho āyasmato sāriputtassa etadahosi: “ime kho me dhammā parisuddhā pariyodātā, yannūnāhaṁ ime dhamme gantvā1 bhagavato āroceyyaṁ. Evaṁ me ime dhammā parisuddhā ceva bhavissanti parisuddhasaṅkhātatarā ca. Seyyathāpi nāma puriso suvaṇṇanikkhaṁ adhigaccheyya parisuddhaṁ pariyodātaṁ. Tassa evamassa: ‘ayaṁ kho me suvaṇṇanikkho parisuddho pariyodāto, yannūnāhaṁ imaṁ suvaṇṇanikkhaṁ gantvā2 kammārānaṁ dasseyyaṁ. Evaṁ me ayaṁ suvaṇṇanikkho sakammāragato parisuddho ceva bhavissati parisuddhasaṅkhātataro ca. Evamevaṁ me3 ime dhammā parisuddhā pariyodātā, yannūnāhaṁ ime dhamme gantvā4 bhagavato āroceyyaṁ. Evaṁ me ime dhammā parisuddhā ceva bhavissanti parisuddhasaṅkhātatarā cā’”ti.

    Then he thought, “These qualities are pure and bright in me. Why don’t I go and tell them to the Buddha? Then these qualities will not only be purified in me, but will be better known as purified. Suppose a man were to acquire a gold coin, pure and bright. They’d think, ‘My gold coin is pure and bright. Why don’t I take it to show the smiths? Then it will not only be purified, but will be better known as purified.’ In the same way, these qualities are pure and bright in me. Why don’t I go and tell them to the Buddha? Then these qualities will not only be purified in me, but will be better known as purified.”

    अथ खो आयस्मा सारिपुत्तो सायन्हसमयं पटिसल्लाना वुट्ठितो येन भगवा तेनुपसङ्कमि; उपसङ्कमित्वा भगवन्तं अभिवादेत्वा एकमन्तं निसीदि। एकमन्तं निसिन्नो खो आयस्मा सारिपुत्तो भगवन्तं एतदवोच:

    Atha kho āyasmā sāriputto sāyanhasamayaṁ paṭisallānā vuṭṭhito yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā sāriputto bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:

    Then in the late afternoon, Sāriputta came out of retreat and went to the Buddha. He bowed, sat down to one side, and told the Buddha of his thoughts while on retreat.

    “इध मय्हं, भन्ते, रहोगतस्स पटिसल्लीनस्स एवं चेतसो परिवितक्को उदपादि: ‘किं नु खो भिक्खु सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्याऽति? अथ खो तस्स मय्हं, भन्ते, एतदहोसि: ‘सत्थारं खो भिक्खु सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्य। धम्मं खो भिक्खु …पे… पटिसन्थारं खो भिक्खु सक्कत्वा …पे… कुसलं भावेय्याऽति। अथ खो तस्स मय्हं, भन्ते, एतदहोसि: ‘इमे खो मे धम्मा परिसुद्धा परियोदाता, यन्नूनाहं इमे धम्मे गन्त्वा भगवतो आरोचेय्यं। एवं मे इमे धम्मा परिसुद्धा चेव भविस्सन्ति परिसुद्धसङ्खाततरा च। सेय्यथापि नाम पुरिसो सुवण्णनिक्खं अधिगच्छेय्य परिसुद्धं परियोदातं। तस्स एवमस्स—अयं खो मे सुवण्णनिक्खो परिसुद्धो परियोदातो, यन्नूनाहं इमं सुवण्णनिक्खं गन्त्वा कम्मारानं दस्सेय्यं। एवं मे अयं सुवण्णनिक्खो सकम्मारगतो परिसुद्धो चेव भविस्सति परिसुद्धसङ्खाततरो च। एवमेवं मे इमे धम्मा परिसुद्धा परियोदाता, यन्नूनाहं इमे धम्मे गन्त्वा भगवतो आरोचेय्यं। एवं मे इमे धम्मा परिसुद्धा चेव भविस्सन्ति परिसुद्धसङ्खाततरा चाऽ”ति।

    “Idha mayhaṁ, bhante, rahogatassa paṭisallīnassa evaṁ cetaso parivitakko udapādi: ‘kiṁ nu kho bhikkhu sakkatvā garuṁ katvā upanissāya viharanto akusalaṁ pajaheyya, kusalaṁ bhāveyyā’ti? Atha kho tassa mayhaṁ, bhante, etadahosi: ‘satthāraṁ kho bhikkhu sakkatvā garuṁ katvā upanissāya viharanto akusalaṁ pajaheyya, kusalaṁ bhāveyya.

Evaṁ me ime dhammā parisuddhā ceva bhavissanti parisuddhasaṅkhātatarā cā’”ti.

    “साधु साधु, सारिपुत्त। सत्थारं खो, सारिपुत्त, भिक्खु सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्य। धम्मं खो, सारिपुत्त, भिक्खु सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्य। सङ्घं खो …पे… सिक्खं खो … समाधिं खो … अप्पमादं खो … पटिसन्थारं खो, सारिपुत्त, भिक्खु सक्कत्वा गरुं कत्वा उपनिस्साय विहरन्तो अकुसलं पजहेय्य, कुसलं भावेय्या”ति।

    “Sādhu sādhu, sāriputta. Satthāraṁ kho, sāriputta, bhikkhu sakkatvā garuṁ katvā upanissāya viharanto akusalaṁ pajaheyya, kusalaṁ bhāveyya.

    “Good, good, Sāriputta! A bhikkhu should honor and respect and rely on the Teacher, to give up the unskillful and develop the skillful. A bhikkhu should honor and respect and rely on the teaching … the Saṅgha … the training … immersion … diligence … A bhikkhu should honor and respect and rely on hospitality, to give up the unskillful and develop the skillful.”

    एवं वुत्ते, आयस्मा सारिपुत्तो भगवन्तं एतदवोच:

    Evaṁ vutte, āyasmā sāriputto bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:

    When he said this, Venerable Sāriputta said to the Buddha:

    “इमस्स खो अहं, भन्ते, भगवता सङ्खित्तेन भासितस्स एवं वित्थारेन अत्थं आजानामि। सो वत, भन्ते, भिक्खु सत्थरि अगारवो धम्मे सगारवो भविस्सतीति नेतं ठानं विज्जति। यो सो, भन्ते, भिक्खु सत्थरि अगारवो धम्मेपि सो अगारवो।
