    Idha, bhikkhave, ariyasāvako tathāgataṁ anussarati:

    Firstly, a noble disciple recollects the Realized One:

  7. 7

    ‘इतिपिi·ti·pi सोso भगवाbha·ga·vā …पे…pe सत्थाsat·thā देवमनुस्सानंde·va·ma·nus·sā·naṃ बुद्धोbud·dho भगवा’ति।bha·ga·vā

    ‘itipi so bhagavā …pe… satthā devamanussānaṁ buddho bhagavā’ti.

    ‘That Blessed One is perfected, a fully awakened Buddha, accomplished in knowledge and conduct, holy, knower of the world, supreme guide for those fit for training, teacher of gods and humans, awakened, blessed.’

  8. 8

    यस्मिं,yas·miṃ भिक्खवे,bhik·kha·ve समयेsa·ma·ye अरियसावकोa·ri·ya·sā·va·ko तथागतंta·thā·ga·taṃ अनुस्सरति,a·nus·sa·ra·ti नेवस्सne·vas·sa तस्मिंtas·miṃ समयेsa·ma·ye रागपरियुट्ठितंrā·ga·pa·ri·yuṭ·ṭhi·taṃ चित्तंcit·taṃ होति,ho·ti नna दोसपरियुट्ठितंdo·sa·pa·ri·yuṭ·ṭhi·taṃ चित्तंcit·taṃ होति,ho·ti नna मोहपरियुट्ठितंmo·ha·pa·ri·yuṭ·ṭhi·taṃ चित्तंcit·taṃ होति;ho·ti

    Yasmiṁ, bhikkhave, samaye ariyasāvako tathāgataṁ anussarati, nevassa tasmiṁ samaye rāgapariyuṭṭhitaṁ cittaṁ hoti, na dosapariyuṭṭhitaṁ cittaṁ hoti, na mohapariyuṭṭhitaṁ cittaṁ hoti;

    When a noble disciple recollects the Realized One their mind is not full of greed, hate, and delusion.

  9. 9

    ujugatamevassa tasmiṁ samaye cittaṁ hoti, nikkhantaṁ muttaṁ vuṭṭhitaṁ gedhamhā.

    At that time their mind is quite unswerving. They’ve left behind greed; they’re free of it and have risen above it.

    Idampi kho, bhikkhave, ārammaṇaṁ karitvā evam’idhekacce sattā visujjhanti.

    Relying on this, some sentient beings are purified in this way.

    Puna caparaṁ, bhikkhave, ariyasāvako dhammaṁ anussarati:

    Furthermore, a noble disciple recollects the teaching:

  13. 13

    ‘स्वाक्खातोsvāk·khā·to भगवताbha·ga·va·tā धम्मोdham·mo …पे…pe पच्चत्तंpac·cat·taṃ वेदितब्बोve·di·tab·bo विञ्ञूही’ति।viñ·ñū·hī

    ‘svākkhāto bhagavatā dhammo …pe… paccattaṁ veditabbo viññūhī’ti.
