    With Sīvaka

    एकं समयं भगवा राजगहे विहरति वेळुवने कलन्दकनिवापे।

    Ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā rājagahe viharati veḷuvane kalandakanivāpe.

    At one time the Buddha was staying near Rājagaha, in the Bamboo Grove, the squirrels’ feeding ground.

    अथ खो मोळियसीवको परिब्बाजको येन भगवा तेनुपसङ्कमि; उपसङ्कमित्वा भगवता सद्धिं सम्मोदि। सम्मोदनीयं कथं सारणीयं वीतिसारेत्वा एकमन्तं निसीदि। एकमन्तं निसिन्नो खो मोळियसीवको परिब्बाजको भगवन्तं एतदवोच:

    Atha kho moḷiyasīvako paribbājako yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavatā saddhiṁ sammodi. Sammodanīyaṁ kathaṁ sāraṇīyaṁ vītisāretvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho moḷiyasīvako paribbājako bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:

    Then the wanderer Moḷiyasīvaka went up to the Buddha and exchanged greetings with him. When the greetings and polite conversation were over, he sat down to one side and said to the Buddha:

    “सन्ति, भो गोतम, एके समणब्राह्मणा एवंवादिनो एवंदिट्ठिनो: ‘यं किञ्चायं पुरिसपुग्गलो पटिसंवेदेति सुखं वा दुक्खं वा अदुक्खमसुखं वा सब्बं तं पुब्बेकतहेतूऽति। इध भवं गोतमो किमाहा”ति?

    “santi, bho gotama, eke samaṇabrāhmaṇā evaṁvādino evaṁdiṭṭhino: ‘yaṁ kiñcāyaṁ purisapuggalo paṭisaṁvedeti sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā sabbaṁ taṁ pubbekatahetū’ti. Idha1 bhavaṁ gotamo kimāhā”ti?

    “Master Gotama, there are some ascetics and brahmins who have this doctrine and view: ‘Everything this individual experiences—pleasurable, painful, or neutral—is because of past deeds.’ What does Master Gotama say about this?”

    “पित्तसमुट्ठानानिपि खो, सीवक, इधेकच्चानि वेदयितानि उप्पज्जन्ति। सामम्पि खो एतं, सीवक, वेदितब्बं यथा पित्तसमुट्ठानानिपि इधेकच्चानि वेदयितानि उप्पज्जन्ति। लोकस्सपि खो एतं, सीवक, सच्चसम्मतं यथा पित्तसमुट्ठानानिपि इधेकच्चानि वेदयितानि उप्पज्जन्ति। तत्र, सीवक, ये ते समणब्राह्मणा एवंवादिनो एवंदिट्ठिनो: ‘यं किञ्चायं पुरिसपुग्गलो पटिसंवेदेति सुखं वा दुक्खं वा अदुक्खमसुखं वा सब्बं तं पुब्बेकतहेतूऽति। यञ्च सामं ञातं तञ्च अतिधावन्ति, यञ्च लोके सच्चसम्मतं तञ्च अतिधावन्ति। तस्मा तेसं समणब्राह्मणानं मिच्छाति वदामि।

    “Pittasamuṭṭhānānipi kho, sīvaka, idhekaccāni vedayitāni uppajjanti. Sāmampi kho etaṁ, sīvaka, veditabbaṁ2 yathā pittasamuṭṭhānānipi idhekaccāni vedayitāni uppajjanti. Lokassapi kho etaṁ, sīvaka, saccasammataṁ yathā pittasamuṭṭhānānipi idhekaccāni vedayitāni uppajjanti. Tatra, sīvaka, ye te samaṇabrāhmaṇā evaṁvādino evaṁdiṭṭhino: ‘yaṁ kiñcāyaṁ purisapuggalo paṭisaṁvedeti sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā sabbaṁ taṁ pubbekatahetū’ti. Yañca sāmaṁ ñātaṁ tañca atidhāvanti, yañca loke saccasammataṁ tañca atidhāvanti. Tasmā tesaṁ samaṇabrāhmaṇānaṁ micchāti vadāmi.

    “Sīvaka, some feelings stem from bile disorders. You can know this from your own personal experience, and it is generally deemed to be true. Since this is so, the ascetics and brahmins whose view is that everything an individual experiences is because of past deeds go beyond personal experience and beyond what is generally deemed to be true. So those ascetics and brahmins are wrong, I say.

    सेम्हसमुट्ठानानिपि खो, सीवक …पे… वातसमुट्ठानानिपि खो, सीवक …पे… सन्निपातिकानिपि खो, सीवक …पे… उतुपरिणामजानिपि खो, सीवक …पे… विसमपरिहारजानिपि खो, सीवक …पे… ओपक्कमिकानिपि खो, सीवक …पे… कम्मविपाकजानिपि खो, सीवक, इधेकच्चानि वेदयितानि उप्पज्जन्ति। सामम्पि खो एतं, सीवक, वेदितब्बं। यथा कम्मविपाकजानिपि इधेकच्चानि वेदयितानि उप्पज्जन्ति; लोकस्सपि खो एतं, सीवक, सच्चसम्मतं। यथा कम्मविपाकजानिपि इधेकच्चानि वेदयितानि उप्पज्जन्ति; तत्र, सीवक, ये ते समणब्राह्मणा एवंवादिनो एवंदिट्ठिनो: ‘यं किञ्चायं पुरिसपुग्गलो पटिसंवेदेति सुखं वा दुक्खं वा अदुक्खमसुखं वा सब्बं तं पुब्बेकतहेतूऽति। यञ्च सामं ञातं तञ्च अतिधावन्ति यञ्च लोके सच्चसम्मतं तञ्च अतिधावन्ति। तस्मा ‘तेसं समणब्राह्मणानं मिच्छाऽति वदामी”ति।

    Semhasamuṭṭhānānipi kho, sīvaka …pe… vātasamuṭṭhānānipi kho, sīvaka …pe… sannipātikānipi kho, sīvaka …pe… utupariṇāmajānipi kho, sīvaka …pe… visamaparihārajānipi kho, sīvaka …pe… opakkamikānipi kho, sīvaka …pe… kammavipākajānipi kho, sīvaka, idhekaccāni vedayitāni uppajjanti. Sāmampi kho etaṁ, sīvaka, veditabbaṁ. Yathā kammavipākajānipi idhekaccāni vedayitāni uppajjanti; lokassapi kho etaṁ, sīvaka, saccasammataṁ. Yathā kammavipākajānipi idhekaccāni vedayitāni uppajjanti; tatra, sīvaka, ye te samaṇabrāhmaṇā evaṁvādino evaṁdiṭṭhino: ‘yaṁ kiñcāyaṁ purisapuggalo paṭisaṁvedeti sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā sabbaṁ taṁ pubbekatahetū’ti. Yañca sāmaṁ ñātaṁ tañca atidhāvanti yañca loke saccasammataṁ tañca atidhāvanti. Tasmā ‘tesaṁ samaṇabrāhmaṇānaṁ micchā’ti vadāmī”ti.

    Some feelings stem from phlegm disorders … wind disorders … their conjunction … change in weather … not taking care of yourself … overexertion … Some feelings are the result of past deeds. You can know this from your own personal experience, and it is generally deemed to be true. Since this is so, the ascetics and brahmins whose view is that everything an individual experiences is because of past deeds go beyond personal experience and beyond what is generally deemed to be true. So those ascetics and brahmins are wrong, I say.”

    एवं वुत्ते, मोळियसीवको परिब्बाजको भगवन्तं एतदवोच: “अभिक्कन्तं, भो गोतम, अभिक्कन्तं, भो गोतम …पे… उपासकं मं भवं गोतमो धारेतु अज्जतग्गे पाणुपेतं सरणं गतन्”ति।

    Evaṁ vutte, moḷiyasīvako paribbājako bhagavantaṁ etadavoca: “abhikkantaṁ, bho gotama, abhikkantaṁ, bho gotama …pe… upāsakaṁ maṁ bhavaṁ gotamo dhāretu ajjatagge pāṇupetaṁ saraṇaṁ gatan”ti.

    When he said this, the wanderer Moḷiyasīvaka said to the Buddha, “Excellent, Master Gotama! Excellent! … From this day forth, may Master Gotama remember me as a lay follower who has gone for refuge for life.”

    “पित्तं सेम्हञ्च वातो च, सन्निपाता उतूनि च; विसमं ओपक्कमिकं, कम्मविपाकेन अट्ठमी”ति।

    “Pittaṁ semhañca vāto ca, Sannipātā utūni ca; Visamaṁ opakkamikaṁ, Kammavipākena aṭṭhamī”ti.

    “Bile, phlegm, and wind, their conjunction, and the weather, not taking care of yourself, overexertion, and the result of deeds is the eighth.”
