Atha kho āyasmā migajālo yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami …pe…
Then Venerable Migajāla went up to the Buddha …
ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā migajālo bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
and said to him:
“sādhu me, bhante, bhagavā saṅkhittena dhammaṁ desetu, yamahaṁ bhagavato dhammaṁ sutvā eko vūpakaṭṭho appamatto ātāpī pahitatto vihareyyan”ti.
“Sir, may the Buddha please teach me Dhamma in brief. When I’ve heard it, I’ll live alone, withdrawn, diligent, keen, and resolute.”
“Santi kho, migajāla, cakkhuviññeyyā rūpā iṭṭhā kantā manāpā piyarūpā kāmūpasaṁhitā rajanīyā.
“Migajāla, there are sights known by the eye, which are likable, desirable, agreeable, pleasant, sensual, and arousing.
Tañce bhikkhu abhinandati abhivadati ajjhosāya tiṭṭhati.
If a mendicant approves, welcomes, and keep clinging to them,
Tassa taṁ abhinandato abhivadato ajjhosāya tiṭṭhato uppajjati nandī.

Relishing is the origin of suffering, I say.

There are sounds … smells … tastes … touches …

When relishing ceases, suffering ceases, I say.

Atha kho āyasmā migajālo bhagavato bhāsitaṁ abhinanditvā anumoditvā uṭṭhāyāsanā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā padakkhiṇaṁ katvā pakkāmi.
And then Venerable Migajāla approved and agreed with what the Buddha said. He rose from his seat, bowed, and respectfully circled the Buddha, keeping him on his right, before leaving.
Atha kho āyasmā migajālo eko vūpakaṭṭho appamatto ātāpī pahitatto viharato nacirasseva—yassatthāya kulaputtā sammadeva agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajanti, tadanuttaraṁ—brahmacariyapariyosānaṁ diṭṭheva dhamme sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā upasampajja vihāsi.
Then Migajāla, living alone, withdrawn, diligent, keen, and resolute, soon realized the supreme end of the spiritual path in this very life. He lived having achieved with his own insight the goal for which gentlemen rightly go forth from the lay life to homelessness.
“Khīṇā jāti, vusitaṁ brahmacariyaṁ, kataṁ karaṇīyaṁ, nāparaṁ itthattāyā”ti abbhaññāsi.
He understood: “Rebirth is ended; the spiritual journey has been completed; what had to be done has been done; there is nothing further for this place.”
Aññataro ca panāyasmā migajālo arahataṁ ahosīti.
And Migajāla became one of the perfected.
Dutiyaṁ.
