    Deserving Criticism (3rd)

    “पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो आवासिको भिक्खु यथाभतं निक्खित्तो एवं निरये। कतमेहि पञ्चहि? अननुविच्च अपरियोगाहेत्वा अवण्णारहस्स वण्णं भासति; अननुविच्च अपरियोगाहेत्वा वण्णारहस्स अवण्णं भासति; आवासमच्छरी होति; कुलमच्छरी होति; लाभमच्छरी होति। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो आवासिको भिक्खु यथाभतं निक्खित्तो एवं निरये।

    “Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato āvāsiko bhikkhu yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye. Katamehi pañcahi? Ananuvicca apariyogāhetvā avaṇṇārahassa vaṇṇaṁ bhāsati; ananuvicca apariyogāhetvā vaṇṇārahassa avaṇṇaṁ bhāsati; āvāsamaccharī hoti; kulamaccharī hoti; lābhamaccharī hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato āvāsiko bhikkhu yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye.

    “Bhikkhus, a resident bhikkhu with five qualities is cast down to hell. What five? Without examining or scrutinizing, they praise those deserving of criticism, and they criticize those deserving of praise. They’re stingy regarding monasteries, families, and material possessions. A resident bhikkhu with these five qualities is cast down to hell.

    पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो आवासिको भिक्खु यथाभतं निक्खित्तो एवं सग्गे। कतमेहि पञ्चहि? अनुविच्च परियोगाहेत्वा अवण्णारहस्स अवण्णं भासति; अनुविच्च परियोगाहेत्वा वण्णारहस्स वण्णं भासति; न आवासमच्छरी होति; न कुलमच्छरी होति; न लाभमच्छरी होति। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो आवासिको भिक्खु यथाभतं निक्खित्तो एवं सग्गे”ति।

    Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato āvāsiko bhikkhu yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ sagge. Katamehi pañcahi? Anuvicca pariyogāhetvā avaṇṇārahassa avaṇṇaṁ bhāsati; anuvicca pariyogāhetvā vaṇṇārahassa vaṇṇaṁ bhāsati; na āvāsamaccharī hoti; na kulamaccharī hoti; na lābhamaccharī hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato āvāsiko bhikkhu yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ sagge”ti.

    A resident bhikkhu with five qualities is raised up to heaven. What five? After examining and scrutinizing, they criticize those deserving of criticism, and they praise those deserving of praise. They’re not stingy regarding monasteries, families, and material possessions. A resident bhikkhu with these five qualities is raised up to heaven.”
