7. 7

   इदमवोचi·da·ma·vo·ca भगवा।bha·ga·vā

   Idamavoca bhagavā.

   That is what the Buddha said.

8. 8

   इदंi·daṃ वत्वानvat·vā·na सुगतोsu·ga·to उट्ठायासनाuṭ·ṭhā·yā·sa·nā विहारंvi·hā·raṃ पाविसि।pā·vi·si

   Idaṁ vatvāna sugato uṭṭhāyāsanā vihāraṁ pāvisi.

   When he had spoken, the Holy One rose from his seat and entered his dwelling.

9. 9

   Atha kho tesaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ acirapakkantassa bhagavato etadahosi:

   Soon after the Buddha left, those mendicants considered,

10. 10

    “इदंi·daṃ खोkho नो,no आवुसो,ā·vu·so भगवाbha·ga·vā सङ्खित्तेनsaṅ·khit·te·na उद्देसंud·de·saṃ उद्दिसित्वाud·di·sit·vā वित्थारेनvit·thā·re·na अत्थंat·thaṃ अविभजित्वाa·vi·bha·jit·vā उट्ठायासनाuṭ·ṭhā·yā·sa·nā विहारंvi·hā·raṃ पविट्ठो:pa·viṭ·ṭho

    “idaṁ kho no, āvuso, bhagavā saṅkhittena uddesaṁ uddisitvā vitthārena atthaṁ avibhajitvā uṭṭhāyāsanā vihāraṁ paviṭṭho:

    “The Buddha gave this brief summary recital, then entered his dwelling without explaining the meaning in detail.

11. 11

    ‘अधम्मोa·dham·mo च,ca भिक्खवे,bhik·kha·ve वेदितब्बोve·di·tab·bo धम्मोdham·mo च;ca

    ‘adhammo ca, bhikkhave, veditabbo dhammo ca;

    ‘You should know bad principles and good principles.

    And you should know bad results and good results.

    Knowing these things, your practice should follow the good principles with good results.’

14. 14

    Ko nu kho imassa bhagavatā saṅkhittena uddesassa uddiṭṭhassa vitthārena atthaṁ avibhattassa vitthārena atthaṁ vibhajeyyā”ti?

    Who can explain in detail the meaning of this brief summary recital given by the Buddha?”

15. 15

    अथa·tha खोkho तेसंte·saṃ भिक्खूनंbhik·khū·naṃ एतदहोसि:e·ta·da·ho·si

    Atha kho tesaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ etadahosi:

    Then those mendicants thought,

16. 16

    “अयंa·yaṃ खोkho आयस्माā·yas·mā महाकच्चानोma·hā·kac·cā·no सत्थुsat·thu चेवce·va संवण्णितो,saṃ·vaṇ·ṇi·to सम्भावितोsam·bhā·vi·to चca विञ्ञूनंviñ·ñū·naṃ सब्रह्मचारीनं।sab·rah·ma·cā·rī·naṃ

    “ayaṁ kho āyasmā mahākaccāno satthu ceva saṁvaṇṇito, sambhāvito ca viññūnaṁ sabrahmacārīnaṁ.

    “This Venerable Mahākaccāna is praised by the Buddha and esteemed by his sensible spiritual companions.

17. 17

    Pahoti cāyasmā mahākaccāno imassa bhagavatā saṅkhittena uddesassa uddiṭṭhassa vitthārena atthaṁ avibhattassa vitthārena atthaṁ vibhajituṁ.

    He is capable of explaining in detail the meaning of this brief summary recital given by the Buddha.

18. 18

    यन्नूनyan·nū·na मयंma·yaṃ येनायस्माye·nā·yas·mā महाकच्चानोma·hā·kac·cā·no तेनुपसङ्कमेय्याम;te·nu·pa·saṅ·ka·mey·yā·ma उपसङ्कमित्वाu·pa·saṅ·ka·mit·vā आयस्मन्तंā·yas·man·taṃ महाकच्चानंma·hā·kac·cā·naṃ एतमत्थंe·ta·mat·thaṃ पुच्छेय्याम।puc·chey·yā·ma

    Yannūna mayaṁ yenāyasmā mahākaccāno tenupasaṅkameyyāma; upasaṅkamitvā āyasmantaṁ mahākaccānaṁ etamatthaṁ puccheyyāma.

    Let’s go to him, and ask him about this matter.

19. 19

    यथाya·thā नोno आयस्माā·yas·mā महाकच्चानोma·hā·kac·cā·no ब्याकरिस्सतिbyā·ka·ris·sa·ti तथाta·thā नंnaṃ धारेस्सामा”ति।dhā·res·sā·mā

    Yathā no āyasmā mahākaccāno byākarissati tathā naṁ dhāressāmā”ti.

    As he answers, so we’ll remember it.”

20. 20

    अथa·tha खोkho तेte भिक्खूbhik·khū येनायस्माye·nā·yas·mā महाकच्चानोma·hā·kac·cā·no तेनुपसङ्कमिंसु;te·nu·pa·saṅ·ka·miṃ·su उपसङ्कमित्वाu·pa·saṅ·ka·mit·vā आयस्मताā·yas·ma·tā महाकच्चानेनma·hā·kac·cā·ne·na सद्धिंsad·dhiṃ सम्मोदिंसु।sam·mo·diṃ·su

    Atha kho te bhikkhū yenāyasmā mahākaccāno tenupasaṅkamiṁsu; upasaṅkamitvā āyasmatā mahākaccānena saddhiṁ sammodiṁsu.

    Then those mendicants went to Mahākaccāna, and exchanged greetings with him.

21. 21

    When the greetings and polite conversation were over, they sat down to one side. They told him what had happened, and said,

22. 22

    “इदंi·daṃ खोkho नो,no आवुसोā·vu·so कच्चान,kac·cā·na भगवाbha·ga·vā सङ्खित्तेनsaṅ·khit·te·na उद्देसंud·de·saṃ उद्दिसित्वाud·di·sit·vā वित्थारेनvit·thā·re·na अत्थंat·thaṃ अविभजित्वाa·vi·bha·jit·vā उट्ठायासनाuṭ·ṭhā·yā·sa·nā विहारंvi·hā·raṃ पविट्ठो:pa·viṭ·ṭho

    “Reverends, suppose there was a person in need of heartwood. And while wandering in search of heartwood he’d come across a large tree standing with heartwood. But he’d pass over the roots and trunk, imagining that the heartwood should be sought in the branches and leaves.

    For he is the Buddha, the one who knows and sees. He is vision, he is knowledge, he is the manifestation of principle, he is the manifestation of divinity. He is the preacher, the proclaimer, the elucidator of meaning, the bestower of freedom from death, the lord of truth, the Realized One.

    “Certainly he is the Buddha, the one who knows and sees. He is vision, he is knowledge, he is the manifestation of principle, he is the manifestation of divinity.
