Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Awakened One, as I have heard:
“Paṭisallānārāmā, bhikkhave, viharatha paṭisallānaratā, ajjhattaṁ cetosamathamanuyuttā, anirākatajjhānā, vipassanāya samannāgatā, brūhetāro suññāgārānaṁ. Paṭisallānārāmānaṁ, bhikkhave, viharataṁ paṭisallānaratānaṁ ajjhattaṁ cetosamathamanuyuttānaṁ anirākatajjhānānaṁ vipassanāya samannāgatānaṁ brūhetānaṁ suññāgārānaṁ dvinnaṁ phalānaṁ aññataraṁ phalaṁ pāṭikaṅkhaṁ—diṭṭheva dhamme aññā, sati vā upādisese anāgāmitā”ti.
“Dwell delighting in seclusion, enjoying seclusion, devoted to tranquility of mind, not neglectful of meditation, endowed with penetrative vision, and practice in an empty dwelling. For those who dwell delighting in seclusion, enjoying seclusion, devoted to tranquility of mind, not neglectful of meditation, endowed with penetrative vision, and practice in an empty dwelling—one of two results is to be expected: either final knowledge [of the complete wearing away of the taints] here and now, or, if there is any residual clinging for existence, the state of non-returning.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
The Blessed One spoke on this matter. In this regard, it is said:
“Ye santacittā nipakā,
satimanto ca jhāyino;
Sammā dhammaṁ vipassanti,
kāmesu anapekkhino.
Those with a calm mind, prudent,
mindful meditators;
they rightly see deeply into the ultimate reality,
unconcerned about sensual pleasures.
Appamādaratā santā,
pamāde bhayadassino;
Abhabbā parihānāya,
nibbānasseva santike”ti.
They delight in diligence and are at peace,
seeing the danger in negligence;
they are incapable of decline,
dwelling near to Nibbāna.
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
This matter too was spoken by the Blessed One, as I have heard.
