समणब्राह्मणसुत्त
Samaṇabrāhmaṇasutta
Ascetics and Brahmins
सावत्थियं विहरति।
Sāvatthiyaṁ viharati.
At Sāvatthī.
“ये हि केचि, भिक्खवे, समणा वा ब्राह्मणा वा जरामरणं नप्पजानन्ति, जरामरणसमुदयं नप्पजानन्ति, जरामरणनिरोधं नप्पजानन्ति, जरामरणनिरोधगामिनिं पटिपदं नप्पजानन्ति; जातिं …पे… भवं … उपादानं … तण्हं … वेदनं … फस्सं … सळायतनं … नामरूपं … विञ्ञाणं … सङ्खारे नप्पजानन्ति, सङ्खारसमुदयं नप्पजानन्ति, सङ्खारनिरोधं नप्पजानन्ति, सङ्खारनिरोधगामिनिं पटिपदं नप्पजानन्ति, न मे ते, भिक्खवे, समणा वा ब्राह्मणा वा समणेसु वा समणसम्मता ब्राह्मणेसु वा ब्राह्मणसम्मता; न च पन ते आयस्मन्तो सामञ्ञत्थं वा ब्रह्मञ्ञत्थं वा दिट्ठेव धम्मे सयं अभिञ्ञा सच्छिकत्वा उपसम्पज्ज विहरन्ति।
“Ye hi keci, bhikkhave, samaṇā vā brāhmaṇā vā jarāmaraṇaṁ nappajānanti, jarāmaraṇasamudayaṁ nappajānanti, jarāmaraṇanirodhaṁ nappajānanti, jarāmaraṇanirodhagāminiṁ paṭipadaṁ nappajānanti; jātiṁ …pe… bhavaṁ … upādānaṁ … taṇhaṁ … vedanaṁ … phassaṁ … saḷāyatanaṁ … nāmarūpaṁ … viññāṇaṁ … saṅkhāre nappajānanti, saṅkhārasamudayaṁ nappajānanti, saṅkhāranirodhaṁ nappajānanti, saṅkhāranirodhagāminiṁ paṭipadaṁ nappajānanti, na me te, bhikkhave, samaṇā vā brāhmaṇā vā samaṇesu vā samaṇasammatā brāhmaṇesu vā brāhmaṇasammatā; na ca pana te āyasmanto sāmaññatthaṁ vā brahmaññatthaṁ1 vā diṭṭheva dhamme sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā upasampajja viharanti.
“Bhikkhus, there are ascetics and brahmins who don’t understand old age and death, their origin, their cessation, and the practice that leads to their cessation. They don’t understand rebirth … continued existence … grasping … craving … feeling … contact … the six sense fields … name and form … consciousness … They don’t understand choices, their origin, their cessation, and the practice that leads to their cessation. I don’t deem them as true ascetics and brahmins. Those venerables don’t realize the goal of life as an ascetic or brahmin, and don’t live having realized it with their own insight.
