Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Awakened One, as I have heard:
“Tīṇimāni, bhikkhave, indriyāni. Katamāni tīṇi? Anaññātaññassāmītindriyaṁ, aññindriyaṁ, aññātāvindriyaṁ—imāni kho, bhikkhave, tīṇi indriyānī”ti.
“There are these three mental faculties. What are the three? 1.) The faculty that senses ‘I will know the unknown,’ 2.) the faculty of final knowledge, and 3.) the faculty of one with final knowledge. These are the three mental faculties.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
The Blessed One spoke on this matter. In this regard, it is said:
“Sekhassa sikkhamānassa,
ujumaggānusārino;
Khayasmiṁ paṭhamaṁ ñāṇaṁ,
tato aññā anantarā.
“For a trainee who is practicing,
following the direct path;
knowledge of wearing away arises first,
followed next by final knowledge.
Tato aññāvimuttassa,
ñāṇaṁ ve hoti tādino;
Akuppā me vimuttīti,
bhavasaṁyojanakkhayā.
For one liberated through final knowledge,
there arises insight in the stable one;
‘My liberation is unshakeable,’
wearing away the chain of existence.
Sa ve indriyasampanno,
santo santipade rato;
Dhāreti antimaṁ dehaṁ,
jetvā māraṁ savāhinin”ti.
One accomplished in faculties,
tranquil, devoted to the state of peace,
he bears his final body,
having conquered Māra along with his army.”
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
This matter too was spoken by the Blessed One, as I have heard.
