At Verañjā: the origin of the Monastic Law
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.1
Tena samayena buddho bhagavā verañjāyaṁ viharati naḷerupucimandamūle mahatā bhikkhusaṅghena saddhiṁ pañcamattehi bhikkhusatehi.
At one time the Buddha was staying at Verañjā at the foot of Naḷeru’s Nimba tree with a large sangha of five hundred monks.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.2
Assosi kho verañjo brāhmaṇo—
A brahmin in Verañjā was told:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.3
“samaṇo khalu bho gotamo sakyaputto sakyakulā pabbajito verañjāyaṁ viharati naḷerupucimandamūle mahatā bhikkhusaṅghena saddhiṁ pañcamattehi bhikkhusatehi.
“Sir, the ascetic Gotama, the Sakyan, who has gone forth from the Sakyan clan, is staying at Verañjā at the foot of Naleru’s Nimba tree with a large sangha of five hundred monks.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.4
Taṁ kho pana bhavantaṁ gotamaṁ evaṁ kalyāṇo kittisaddo abbhuggato—
That good Gotama has a fine reputation:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.5
‘itipi so bhagavā arahaṁ sammāsambuddho vijjācaraṇasampanno sugato lokavidū anuttaro purisadammasārathi satthā devamanussānaṁ buddho bhagavā’,
‘He is a Buddha, perfected and fully awakened, complete in insight and conduct, happy, knower of the world, supreme leader of trainable people, teacher of gods and humans, awakened, a Buddha.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.6
so imaṁ lokaṁ sadevakaṁ samārakaṁ sabrahmakaṁ sassamaṇabrāhmaṇiṁ pajaṁ sadevamanussaṁ sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā pavedeti,
With his own insight he has seen this world with its gods, its lords of death, and its supreme beings, this society with its monastics and brahmins, its gods and humans, and he makes it known to others.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.7
so dhammaṁ deseti ādikalyāṇaṁ majjhekalyāṇaṁ pariyosānakalyāṇaṁ sātthaṁ sabyañjanaṁ; kevalaparipuṇṇaṁ parisuddhaṁ brahmacariyaṁ pakāseti;
He has a Teaching that’s good in the beginning, good in the middle, and good in the end. It has a true goal and is well articulated. He sets out a perfectly complete and pure spiritual life.’
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.1.8
sādhu kho pana tathārūpānaṁ arahataṁ dassanaṁ hotī”ti.
It’s good to see such perfected ones.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.2.1
Atha kho verañjo brāhmaṇo yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavatā saddhiṁ sammodi. Sammodanīyaṁ kathaṁ sāraṇīyaṁ vītisāretvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho verañjo brāhmaṇo bhagavantaṁ etadavoca—
That brahmin then went to the Buddha, exchanged pleasantries with him, sat down, and said,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.2.2
“sutaṁ metaṁ, bho gotama—
“I’ve heard, good Gotama,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.2.3
‘na samaṇo gotamo brāhmaṇe jiṇṇe vuḍḍhe mahallake addhagate vayoanuppatte abhivādeti vā paccuṭṭheti vā āsanena vā nimantetī’ti.
that you don’t bow down to old brahmins, stand up for them, or offer them a seat.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.2.4
Tayidaṁ, bho gotama, tatheva? Na hi bhavaṁ gotamo brāhmaṇe jiṇṇe vuḍḍhe mahallake addhagate vayoanuppatte abhivādeti vā paccuṭṭheti vā āsanena vā nimanteti?
I’ve now seen that this is indeed the case.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.2.5
Tayidaṁ, bho gotama, na sampannamevā”ti.
This isn’t right.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.2.6
“Nāhaṁ taṁ, brāhmaṇa, passāmi sadevake loke samārake sabrahmake sassamaṇabrāhmaṇiyā pajāya sadevamanussāya yamahaṁ abhivādeyyaṁ vā paccuṭṭheyyaṁ vā āsanena vā nimanteyyaṁ.
“Brahmin, in the world with its gods, lords of death, and supreme beings, in this society with its monastics and brahmins, its gods and humans, I don’t see anyone I should bow down to, rise up for, or offer a seat.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.2.7
Yañhi, brāhmaṇa, tathāgato abhivādeyya vā paccuṭṭheyya vā āsanena vā nimanteyya, muddhāpi tassa vipateyyā”ti.
If I did, their head would explode.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.3.1
“Arasarūpo bhavaṁ gotamo”ti?
“Good Gotama lacks taste.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.3.2
“Atthi khvesa, brāhmaṇa, pariyāyo yena maṁ pariyāyena sammā vadamāno vadeyya—‘arasarūpo samaṇo gotamo’ti.
“There’s a way you could rightly say that I lack taste.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.3.3
Ye te, brāhmaṇa, rūparasā saddarasā gandharasā rasarasā phoṭṭhabbarasā, te tathāgatassa pahīnā ucchinnamūlā tālāvatthukatā anabhāvaṅkatā āyatiṁ anuppādadhammā.
For I’ve abandoned the taste for forms, sounds, smells, flavors, and touches. I’ve cut it off at the root, made it like a palm stump, eradicated it, and made it incapable of reappearing in the future.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.3.4
Ayaṁ kho, brāhmaṇa, pariyāyo yena maṁ pariyāyena sammā vadamāno vadeyya—‘arasarūpo samaṇo gotamo’ti, no ca kho yaṁ tvaṁ sandhāya vadesī”ti.

One who has abandoned them, cut them off at the root, made them like a palm stump, eradicated them, and made them incapable of reappearing in the future—such a one I call austere.

For one who has retired from any future conception in a womb, any rebirth in a future life, who has cut it off at the root, made it like a palm stump, eradicated it, and made it incapable of reappearing in the future—such a one I call retiring.

Tathāgatassa kho, brāhmaṇa, āyatiṁ gabbhaseyyā punabbhavābhinibbatti pahīnā ucchinnamūlā tālāvatthukatā anabhāvaṅkatā āyatiṁ anuppādadhammā.

- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.3.39
Ayaṁ kho, brāhmaṇa, pariyāyo yena maṁ pariyāyena sammā vadamāno vadeyya—‘apagabbho samaṇo gotamo’ti, no ca kho yaṁ tvaṁ sandhāya vadesi.
But that’s not what you had in mind.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.4.1
Seyyathāpi, brāhmaṇa, kukkuṭiyā aṇḍāni aṭṭha vā dasa vā dvādasa vā.
Suppose, brahmin, there was a hen with eight, ten, or twelve eggs,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.4.2
Tānassu kukkuṭiyā sammā adhisayitāni sammā pariseditāni sammā paribhāvitāni.
which she had properly covered, warmed, and incubated.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.4.3
Yo nu kho tesaṁ kukkuṭacchāpakānaṁ paṭhamataraṁ pādanakhasikhāya vā mukhatuṇḍakena vā aṇḍakosaṁ padāletvā sotthinā abhinibbhijjeyya, kinti svāssa vacanīyo—‘jeṭṭho vā kaniṭṭho vā’”ti?
The first chick that hatches safely—after piercing through the eggshell with its claw or its beak—is it to be called the eldest or the youngest?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.4.4
“Jeṭṭhotissa, bho gotama, vacanīyo.
“It’s to be called the eldest,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.4.5
So hi nesaṁ jeṭṭho hotī”ti.
for it’s the eldest among them.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.4.6
“Evameva kho ahaṁ, brāhmaṇa, avijjāgatāya pajāya aṇḍabhūtāya pariyonaddhāya avijjaṇḍakosaṁ padāletvā ekova loke anuttaraṁ sammāsambodhiṁ abhisambuddho.
“Just so, in this deluded society, enveloped like an egg, I alone in the world have cracked the shell of delusion and reached the supreme full awakening.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.4.7
Svāhaṁ, brāhmaṇa, jeṭṭho seṭṭho lokassa.
I, brahmin, am the world’s eldest and best.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.5.1
Āraddhaṁ kho pana me, brāhmaṇa, vīriyaṁ ahosi asallīnaṁ, upaṭṭhitā sati asammuṭṭhā, passaddho kāyo asāraddho, samāhitaṁ cittaṁ ekaggaṁ.
I was firmly energetic and had clarity of mindfulness; my body was tranquil and my mind stilled and unified.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.5.2
So kho ahaṁ, brāhmaṇa, vivicceva kāmehi vivicca akusalehi dhammehi savitakkaṁ savicāraṁ vivekajaṁ pītisukhaṁ paṭhamaṁ jhānaṁ upasampajja vihāsiṁ.
Fully secluded from the five senses, secluded from unwholesome mental qualities, I entered and remained in the first absorption, which has movement of the mind, as well as the joy and bliss of seclusion.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.5.3
Vitakkavicārānaṁ vūpasamā ajjhattaṁ sampasādanaṁ cetaso ekodibhāvaṁ avitakkaṁ avicāraṁ samādhijaṁ pītisukhaṁ dutiyaṁ jhānaṁ upasampajja vihāsiṁ.
Through the stilling of the movement of the mind, I entered and remained in the second absorption, which has internal confidence and unification of mind, as well as the joy and bliss of stillness.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.5.4
Pītiyā ca virāgā upekkhako ca vihāsiṁ sato ca sampajāno, sukhañca kāyena paṭisaṁvedesiṁ, yaṁ taṁ ariyā ācikkhanti—
Through the fading away of joy, I remained even-minded, mindful, and fully aware, experiencing bliss directly, and I entered and remained in the third absorption of which the noble ones declare:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.5.5
‘upekkhako satimā sukhavihārī’ti tatiyaṁ jhānaṁ upasampajja vihāsiṁ.
‘You are even-minded, mindful, and abide in bliss.’
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.5.6
Sukhassa ca pahānā dukkhassa ca pahānā pubbeva somanassadomanassānaṁ atthaṅgamā adukkhamasukhaṁ upekkhāsatipārisuddhiṁ catutthaṁ jhānaṁ upasampajja vihāsiṁ.
Through the abandoning of bliss and pain and the earlier ending of joy and aversion, I entered and remained in the fourth absorption, which has neither pain nor bliss, but consists of purity of mindfulness and even-mindedness.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.1
So evaṁ samāhite citte parisuddhe pariyodāte anaṅgaṇe vigatūpakkilese mudubhūte kammaniye ṭhite āneñjappatte pubbenivāsānussatiñāṇāya cittaṁ abhininnāmesiṁ.
Then, with my mind stilled, purified, cleansed, flawless, free from defilements, supple, wieldy, steady, and unshakable, I directed it to the knowledge that consists of recollecting past lives.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.2
So anekavihitaṁ pubbenivāsaṁ anussarāmi, seyyathidaṁ—
I recollected many past lives, that is,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.3
ekampi jātiṁ dvepi jātiyo tissopi jātiyo catassopi jātiyo pañcapi jātiyo dasapi jātiyo vīsampi jātiyo tiṁsampi jātiyo cattālīsampi jātiyo paññāsampi jātiyo jātisatampi, jātisahassampi jātisatasahassampi, anekepi saṁvaṭṭakappe anekepi vivaṭṭakappe anekepi saṁvaṭṭavivaṭṭakappe—
one birth, two births, three births, four births, five births, ten births, twenty births, thirty births, forty births, fifty births, a hundred births, a thousand births, a hundred thousand births; many eons of world dissolution, many eons of world evolution, and many eons of both dissolution and evolution. And I knew:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.4
‘amutrāsiṁ evaṁnāmo evaṅgotto evaṁvaṇṇo evamāhāro evaṁsukhadukkhappaṭisaṁvedī evamāyupariyanto;
‘There I had such a name, such a family, such an appearance, such food, such an experience of pleasure and pain, and such a lifespan.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.5
so tato cuto amutra udapādiṁ;
Passing away from there, I was reborn elsewhere,

tatrāpāsiṁ evaṁnāmo evaṅgotto evaṁvaṇṇo evamāhāro evaṁsukhadukkhappaṭisaṁvedī evamāyupariyanto;

- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.7

Passing away from there, I was reborn here.’
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.8
Iti sākāraṁ sauddesaṁ anekavihitaṁ pubbenivāsaṁ anussarāmi.
In this way I recollected many past lives with their characteristics and particulars.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.9
Ayaṁ kho me, brāhmaṇa, rattiyā paṭhame yāme paṭhamā vijjā adhigatā,
This was the first true insight, which I attained in the first part of the night.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.10
avijjā vihatā, vijjā uppannā, tamo vihato, āloko uppanno—
Delusion was dispelled and true insight arose, darkness was dispelled and light arose,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.11
yathā taṁ appamattassa ātāpino pahitattassa viharato.
as happens to one who is heedful, energetic, and diligent.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.6.12
Ayaṁ kho me, brāhmaṇa, paṭhamābhinibbhidā ahosi kukkuṭacchāpakasseva aṇḍakosamhā.
This, brahmin, was my first breaking out, like a chick from an eggshell.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.1
So evaṁ samāhite citte parisuddhe pariyodāte anaṅgaṇe vigatūpakkilese mudubhūte kammaniye ṭhite āneñjappatte sattānaṁ cutūpapātañāṇāya cittaṁ abhininnāmesiṁ.
Then, with my mind stilled, purified, cleansed, flawless, free from defilements, supple, wieldy, steady, and unshakable, I directed it to the knowledge of the passing away and arising of beings.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.2
So dibbena cakkhunā visuddhena atikkantamānusakena satte passāmi cavamāne upapajjamāne hīne paṇīte suvaṇṇe dubbaṇṇe sugate duggate, yathākammūpage satte pajānāmi—
With superhuman and purified clairvoyance, I saw beings passing away and getting reborn, inferior and superior, beautiful and ugly, gone to good destinations and to bad destinations, and I understood how beings pass on according to their actions:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.3
‘ime vata bhonto sattā kāyaduccaritena samannāgatā vacīduccaritena samannāgatā manoduccaritena samannāgatā ariyānaṁ upavādakā micchādiṭṭhikā micchādiṭṭhikammasamādānā;
‘These beings who engaged in misconduct by body, speech, and mind, who abused the noble ones, who had wrong views and acted accordingly,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.4
te kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.
at the breaking up of the body after death, have been reborn in a lower realm, a bad destination, a world of misery, hell.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.5
Ime vā pana bhonto sattā kāyasucaritena samannāgatā vacīsucaritena samannāgatā manosucaritena samannāgatā ariyānaṁ anupavādakā sammādiṭṭhikā sammādiṭṭhikammasamādānā;
But these beings who engaged in good conduct of body, speech, and mind, who did not abuse the noble ones, who held right view and acted accordingly,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.6
te kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā sugatiṁ saggaṁ lokaṁ upapannā’ti.
at the breaking up of the body after death, have been reborn in a good destination, a heaven world.’

Iti dibbena cakkhunā visuddhena atikkantamānusakena satte passāmi cavamāne upapajjamāne hīne paṇīte suvaṇṇe dubbaṇṇe sugate duggate, yathākammūpage satte pajānāmi.
In this way, with superhuman and purified clairvoyance, I saw beings passing away and getting reborn, inferior and superior, beautiful and ugly, gone to good destinations and to bad destinations, and I understood how beings pass on according to their actions.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.8
Ayaṁ kho me, brāhmaṇa, rattiyā majjhime yāme dutiyā vijjā adhigatā,
This was the second true insight, which I attained in the middle part of the night.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-pj1:1.7.9
