Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
At Sāvatthi.
“Samādhiṁ, bhikkhave, bhāvetha. Samāhito, bhikkhave, bhikkhu yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti. Kiñca yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti?
“Cultivate collectedness. A bhikkhu who is collected discerns as it truly is. What does he discern as it truly is?
‘Idaṁ dukkhan’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti,
‘ayaṁ dukkhasamudayo’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti,
‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodho’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti,
‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā’ti yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti.
‘This is suffering,’ he discerns as it truly is;
‘This is the arising of suffering,’ he discerns as it truly is;
‘This is the cessation of suffering,’ he discerns as it truly is;
‘This is the way of practice leading to the cessation of suffering,’ he discerns as it truly is.
Samādhiṁ, bhikkhave, bhāvetha. Samāhito, bhikkhave, bhikkhu yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti.
Cultivate collectedness. A bhikkhu who is collected discerns as it truly is.
Tasmātiha, bhikkhave, ‘idaṁ dukkhan’ti yogo karaṇīyo,
‘ayaṁ dukkhasamudayo’ti yogo karaṇīyo,
‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodho’ti yogo karaṇīyo,
‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā’ti yogo karaṇīyo”ti.
Therefore, effort should be made to fully realize: ‘This is suffering’;
effort should be made to fully realize: ‘This is the arising of suffering’;
effort should be made to fully realize: ‘This is the cessation of suffering’;
effort should be made to fully realize: ‘This is the way of practice leading to the cessation of suffering.’”
