Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Awakened One, as I have heard:
“Dvīhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato puggalo yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ sagge. Katamehi dvīhi? Bhaddakena ca sīlena, bhaddikāya ca diṭṭhiyā. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, dvīhi dhammehi samannāgato puggalo yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ sagge”ti.
“A person endowed with two mental qualities is cast into heaven, just as if they were carried and placed there. Which two? Auspicious conduct and auspicious views. A person endowed with these two mental qualities is cast into heaven, just as if they were carried and placed there.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
The Blessed One spoke on this matter. In this regard, it is said:
“Bhaddakena ca sīlena,
bhaddikāya ca diṭṭhiyā;
Etehi dvīhi dhammehi,
yo samannāgato naro;
Kāyassa bhedā sappañño,
saggaṁ so upapajjatī”ti.
“By auspicious conduct,
and by auspicious views;
whoever is endowed
with these two mental qualities;
after the breaking up of the body, that wise person
is reborn in heaven.”
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
This matter too was spoken by the Blessed One, as I have heard.
