002.01. At that time The Blessed One was abiding in the monastery offered by Anàthapiõóika in Jeta's grove in Sàvatthi. Venerable Sàriputta approached The Blessed One, worshipped, sat on a side and said: ßVenerable sir, I have spent the rains in Sàvatthi and desire to go to the states on a tour." ßSàriputta, do as you think is suitable." Then venerable Sàriputta getting up from his seat worshipped and circumambulated The Blessed One and went away. Soon after venerable Sàriputta had gone, a certain bhikkhu said to The Blessed One: ßVenerable sir, venerable Sàriputta having hurt me, without a reconciliation has left on a tour." Then The Blessed One addressed a certain bhikkhu: ßCome! Bhikkhu, address Sàriputta, in my words- `Friend, Sàriputta, The Blessed One calls you'" That bhikkhu consenting, approached venerable Sàriputta and said: ßFriend, Sàriputta, the Teacher calls you" Venerable Sàriputta consented to see The Blessed One. By that time venerable Mahàmoggallàna and venerable ânanda were wandering from door to door with a bunch of keys. Saying ßVenerable ones approach! There is going to be a lion's roar of venerable Sàriputta, in front of The Blessed One." Then venerable Sàriputta approached The Blessed One, worshipped and sat on a side. When seated The Blessed One said: ßHere, Sàriputta, you have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling have left on a tour"

ßVenerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just as the earth accepts the pure and the impure, excreta, urine, saliva, pus, and blood, does not loathe or shrink on account of it. In the same manner, I abide with a mind comparable to earth, made great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour. .

Venerable sir, just as water washes the pure and the impure, excreta, urine, saliva, pus, and blood, does not loathe or shrink on account of it. In the same manner, I abide with a mind comparable to water, made great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just as fire burns the pure and the impure, excreta, urine, saliva, pus, and blood, does not loathe or shrink on account of it. In the same manner, I abide with a mind comparable to fire, made great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just as air blows away the pure and the impure, excreta, urine, saliva, pus, and blood, does not loathe or shrink on account of it. In the same manner, I abide with a mind comparable to air, made great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just as a duster wipes away the pure and the impure, excreta, urine, saliva, pus, and blood, does not loathe or shrink on account of it. In the same manner, I abide with a mind comparable to a duster, made great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just as an outcaste boy or girl in torn clothes with the begging basin in hand would enter a village or hamlet with a humble mind. In the same manner, I abide with a mind comparable to the mind of an outcaste boy or girl made great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just like a tamed bull devoted to people, with its horns cut, would wander from street to street and from junction to junction without hurting anyone with its feet or horns. In the same manner, I abide with a mind, comparable to that of a bull with the horns cut, made great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just as a woman, man or child fond of adornment, when had bathed the head, was to be wrapped round the neck with the carcase of a snake dog or a human would loathe it and be disgusted of it. In the same manner, I abide disgusted and loathing this putrid body. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour.

Venerable sir, just as a man using a perforated frying pan with the oil leaking In the same manner, I abide with this body which is perforated and leaking. Venerable sir, if mindfulness of the body in the body was not established, I would have offended a certain co-associate in the holy life and without reconciling, would have left on a tour"

Then that bhikkhu getting up from his seat, and arranging his robe on one shoulder, putting his head at the feet of The Blessed One said: ßVenerable sir, pardon me, I accused venerable Sàriputta with untruthful, un-real accusation owing to foolishness and delusion. May The Blessed One pardon me, for future restraint. Bhikkhu, as you see your fault and ask for pardon, according to the Teaching, I pardon you. Bhikkhu, it is growth in the noble ones' discipline to see your fault and ask for pardon, according to the Teaching, for future restraint.

Then The Blessed One addressed venerable Sàriputta: ßSàriputta, pardon this foolish man, before his head splits in seven"

ßVenerable sir, I will pardon, if he says `venerable one pardon me.'"

002.02. At that time The Blessed One was abiding in the monastery offered by Anàthapiõóika in Jeta's grove, in Sàvatthi. Venerable Sàriputta, putting on robes in the morning, and taking bowl and robes, entered Sàvatthi for alms It occurred to venerable Sàriputta: `It is too early to go the alms round in Sàvatthi, what if I go to the monastery of the wandering ascetics of other sects.. I will approach it.' Then venerable Sàriputta approached the monastery of the wandering ascetics of other sects, exchanged friendly greetings with them.and sat on side.

To the wandering ascetics of other sects, who had assembled and were seated, this talk had arisen -"Friends, if someone dies with substratum remaining, he is not released in every way. He is not released from hell, from the animal world, from the sphere of ghosts and from loss and evil states." Venerable Sàriputta, neither accepting nor rejecting those words, got up from the seat thinking I will know the meaning of those words in the presence of The Blessed One Venerable Sàriputta going the alms round in Sàvatthi, after the meal was over and returning from the alms round, approached The Blessed One, worshipped, sat on a side and said:

ßHere, venerable sir, I put on robes in the morning, and taking bowl and robes, entered Sàvatthi for alms. It occurred to me: `It is too early to go the alms round in Sàvatthi, what if I go to the monastery of the wandering ascetics of other sects. I will approach it.' Then I approached the monastery of the wandering ascetics of other sects, exchanged friendly greetings with them.and sat on side.

To the wandering ascetics of other sects, who had assembled and were seated, this talk had arisen -"Friends, if someone dies with substratum remaining, he is not released in every way. He is not released from hell, from the animal world, from the sphere of ghosts and from loss and evil states." Venerable sir, I neither accepted nor rejected those words, got up from my seat thinking I will know the meaning of these words in the presence of The Blessed One"

ßSàriputta, who are these not learned, foolish wandering ascetics, how could they know the state with substratum, or the one with substratum, the state without substratum, or the one without substratum.

Sàriputta, these nine persons die with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births. Which nine?

Here, Sàriputta, a certain person is complete in virtues, complete in concentration and incomplelte in wisdom. Destroying the five lower bonds binding him to the sensual world, he stations himself immediately next to extinction. Sàriputta, this is the first persons who dies with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births. .

Again, Sàriputta, a certain person is complete in virtues, complete in concentration and incomplelte in wisdom. Destroying the five lower bonds binding him to the sensual world, he stations himself in the vicinity of extinction....re....he extinguishes without substratum,....re... he extinguishes with substratum, ...re... he goes up stream to the highest Brahma world. Sàriputta, this is the fifth person who dies with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births.

Again, Sàriputta, a certain person is complete in virtues, incomplete in concentration and incomplete in wisdom. Destroying three bonds and dwindling his greed, hate and delusion he becomes a once returner. He comes to this world once more to make an end of unpleasantness. Sàriputta, this is the sixth person who dies with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births.

Again, Sàriputta, a certain person is complete in virtues, incomplete in concentration and incomplete in wisdom. Destroying the three bonds he has one more birth as a human to make an end of unpleasantness. Sàriputta, this is the seventh person who dies with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births.

Again, Sàriputta, a certain person is complete in virtues, incomplete in concentration and incomplete in wisdom. Destroying three bonds he transmigrates from cclan to clan and being born twice or thrice makes an end of unpleasantness.Sàriputta, this is the eighth person who dies with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births.

Again, Sàriputta, a certain person is complete in virtues, incomplete in concentration and incomplete in wisdom. Destroying three bonds he transmigrates as a human or god the most seven times and makes end of unpleasantness. Sàriputta, this is the eighth person who dies with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births.

Sàriputta, who are these not learned, foolish wandering ascetics, how could they know the state with substratum, or the one with substratum, the state without substratum, or the one without substratum.

Sàriputta, these nine persons die with substratum, released, from hell, from animal birth, from the sphere of ghosts and released from loss and hellish births.Sàriputta, this discourse should not be taught to bhikkhus, bhikkhunis, lay male disciples and female disciples until such time. What is the reason? May they be not negligent hearing this discourse. Yet I teach it to those who are wise.

002.03. Venerable MahaKoññhita approached venerable Sàriputta, exchanged friendly greetings, sat on a side and said:

002.04. Then venerable Samiddhi approached venerable Sàriputta, worshipped, sat on side, and when seated, venerable Sàriputta said:

ßSamiddhi, with what sign, do thoughts and discursive thoughts arise to a man?"

ßVenerable sir, with the sign, name and matter."

002.05. ßBhikkhus, like an abscess of many years, which has nine openingi, not opened. Whatever drips from it is excreta, evil smell and loathsome things. Whatever comes out of it, is excreta, evil smell and loathsome things.

Bhikkhus, abscess is a synonym for this body of the four great elements, brought forth by mother and father supported on rice and bread. Changeful with anointing, rubbing abrasion and destruction. To that abscess there are nine openingi, not opened. Whatever drips from it is excreta, evil smell and loathsome things. Whatever comes out of it, is excreta, evil smell and loathsome things. Therefore bhikkhus, turn away from the body.".

002.07. ßBhikkhus, it is not suitable to approach families endowed with nine factors, nor even to take a seat, if already approached. What nine?

Bhikkhus, the full moon observance endowed with nine factors, observed in which manner is very fruitful, beneficial, sacrificial and has a great spread out?.

Here, bhikkhus, the noble disciple reflects: `As long as life lasts the noble ones have given up destroying living things, become ashamed throwing away stick and weapon abide arousing compassion for all living things. I too this night and day will give up destroying living things, become ashamed will throw away stick and weapon and will abide arousing compassion for all living things.

Bhikkhus, endowed with this first factor the full moon observance is very fruitful, beneficial, sacrificial and has a great spread out..........re.........

As long as life lasts the noble ones have given up high and stately beds and seats. They take a low seat and a spread of grass for the bed. I too this night and day will give up high and stately beds and seats. Will take a low seat and a spread of grass for the bed. By this factor I imitate the worthy state and my full moon observance gets completed.

Bhikkhus, abide with a mind of loving kindness pervading one direction, the second, the third, the fourth, above, below and across everywhere, for all purposes, entirely. Abide with the thought of lovingkindness for the whole world, grown great and immeasurable, without anger or ill will Be endowed with this nineth factor. Bhikkhus, the full moon observance endowed with these nine factors if observed is very fruitful, beneficial, sacrificial and has a great spread out.

002.09. "Bhikkhus, in the recent past, when the night was waning, many gods illuminated the whole of Jeta's grove with a resplendent light, approached me, stood on a side and said:

`Venerable sir, we approached some humans who had gone forth from the household in the past, they attended on us, did not worship us. Venerable sir, they seem to be with incomplete activity, with repentance, carrying out duties later, born in a lower state.

Bhikkhus, even before that, when the night was waning, many gods illuminated the whole of Jeta's grove with a resplendent light, approached me, stood on a side and said:

`Venerable sir, we approached some humans who had gone forth from the household in the past they attended on us, worshipped us, gave us seats, did not communicate according to their ability,...re...communicated according to their ability, ...re..óid not sit to listen to the Teaching, ....re...sat to listen to the Teaching, did not listen to the Teaching attentively, ....re.... listened to the Teaching attentively, did not bear the Teaching in the mind, bore the Teaching in the mind, did not search meanings in the Teaching they heard,...re..... sought for meanings in the Teaching they had heard, did not live according to the Teaching after searching the meanings in the Teaching, Venerable sir, they seem to be with incomplete activity, with repentance, carrying out duties later, born in a lower state.

Bhikkhus, even before that, when the night was waning, many gods illuminated the whole of Jeta's grove with a resplendent light, approached me, stood on a side and said:

Bhikkhus, concentrate, do not be negligent and repent later like those said gods.

002.10. At one time The Blessed One was abiding in the monastery offered by Anàthapiõóika in Jeta's grove in Sàvatthi. The householder Anàthapiõóika approached The Blessed One, worshipped and sat on a side. Then The Blessed One said to him:

ßHouseholder, are gifts given in your family yet?"

ßVenerable sir, my family gives gifts of coarse nature such as porridge prepared out of broken rice with sour gruel and seed cakes accompanied with sour gruel."

ßHouseholder, gifts of coarse or exalted food may be given, that too carelessly, without prior thinking, not giving with one's own hand, as though throwing away, not appreciating the results of giving, and whenever the results of those actions follow, the mind does not tend to enjoy noble food, noble wealth, noble conveyances, the noble enjoyment of the five strands of sensuality. His wife, children, slaves, messengers and workmen, too are not obident to him, do not lend ear to develop the mind. What is the reason? Householder, they are the results of actions done carelessly.

Householder, gifts of coarse or exalted food may be given, that too carefully, with prior thinking, giving with one's own hand, not as though throwing away, appreciating the results of giving, and whenever the results of those actions follow, the mind tends to enjoy noble food, noble wealth, noble conveyances, the noble enjoyment of the five strands of sensuality. His wife, children, slaves, messengers and workmen, too are obident to him, lend ear to develop the mind. What is the reason? Householder, they are the results of actions done carefully

Householder, in the past there was a Brahmin by the name Velama. He gave great gifts like this. He gave eightyfour thousand golden bowls with dipicted pictures filled with rupees, eightyfour thousand bowls with depicted pictures filled with gold, eightyfour thousand bronze bowls filled with gold. He gave eightyfour thousand elephants, decorated in gold and golden flags and covered with a golden net, eightyfour thousand chariots with the accessory lion skins, tiger skins, deer skins, orange blankets decorated in gold, and golden flags and covered with golden nets. He gave eightyfour thousand cows dressing them up in fine cloth with bronze pails to milk them. Gave eightyfour thousand maidens decorated with jewelled ear-rings. Gave eightyfour thousand cushions, deer skin rugs for covering and spreading, deer skin carpets, cannopies, red cushions for the two sides. He gave eighty four thousand crores of clothes, of dainty linen cloth, of dainty silk coth, of dainty woollen cloth, of daintily spun cloth. There is nothing to speak about eatables, drinks, hard food and nourishments, he distributed them like the flowing river.

Householder, it might occur to you: `The Brahmin Velama was someone else, who gave great gifts at that time. It should not be known like that. I was the Brahmin Velama at that time. I gave those great gifts. Householder, at that time there was no one suitable to offer gifts. None to purify gifts.

Householder, if the Brahmin Velama when giving those gifts satisfied a single one, who had come to righteousness of view, the benefits would have been very much more. . . If the Brahmin Velama when giving those gifts satisfied one hundred, who had come to righteousness of view or a once returner, the benefits would have been very much more.
