   Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.

   On one occasion when the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery,

8. 8

   तेनte·na खोkho पनpa·na समयेनsa·ma·ye·na आयस्माā·yas·mā उपनन्दोu·pa·nan·do सक्यपुत्तोsak·ya·put·to सहायकस्सsa·hā·ya·kas·sa घरंgha·raṃ गन्त्वाgan·tvā तस्सtas·sa पजापतियाpa·jā·pa·ti·yā सद्धिंsad·dhiṃ सयनिघरेsa·ya·ni·gha·re निसज्जंni·saj·jaṃ कप्पेसि।kap·pe·si

   Tena kho pana samayena āyasmā upanando sakyaputto sahāyakassa gharaṁ gantvā tassa pajāpatiyā saddhiṁ sayanighare nisajjaṁ kappesi.

   Venerable Upananda the Sakyan went to the house of a friend and sat down with his wife in their bedroom.

9. 9

   अथa·tha खोkho सोso पुरिसोpu·ri·so येनायस्माye·nā·yas·mā उपनन्दोu·pa·nan·do सक्यपुत्तोsak·ya·put·to तेनुपसङ्कमि;te·nu·pa·saṅ·ka·mi उपसङ्कमित्वाu·pa·saṅ·ka·mit·vā आयस्मन्तंā·yas·man·taṃ उपनन्दंu·pa·nan·daṃ सक्यपुत्तंsak·ya·put·taṃ अभिवादेत्वाa·bhi·vā·det·vā एकमन्तंe·ka·man·taṃ निसीदि।ni·sī·di

   Atha kho so puriso yenāyasmā upanando sakyaputto tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā āyasmantaṁ upanandaṁ sakyaputtaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi.

   The husband approached Upananda, bowed, and sat down.

10. 10

    एकमन्तंe·ka·man·taṃ निसिन्नोni·sin·no खोkho सोso पुरिसोpu·ri·so पजापतिंpa·jā·pa·tiṃ एतदवोच—“ददेहाय्यस्सe·ta·da·vo·ca भिक्खन्”ति।bhik·khan

    Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho so puriso pajāpatiṁ etadavoca—“dadehāyyassa bhikkhan”ti.

    He then said to his wife, “Please give him alms.”

11. 11

    अथa·tha खोkho साsā इत्थीit·thī आयस्मतोā·yas·ma·to उपनन्दस्सu·pa·nan·das·sa सक्यपुत्तस्सsak·ya·put·tas·sa भिक्खंbhik·khaṃ अदासि।a·dā·si

    Atha kho sā itthī āyasmato upanandassa sakyaputtassa bhikkhaṁ adāsi.

    And she did so.

12. 12

    अथa·tha खोkho सोso पुरिसोpu·ri·so आयस्मन्तंā·yas·man·taṃ उपनन्दंu·pa·nan·daṃ सक्यपुत्तंsak·ya·put·taṃ एतदवोच—“गच्छथ,e·ta·da·vo·ca भन्ते,bhan·te यतोya·to अय्यस्सay·yas·sa भिक्खाbhik·khā दिन्ना”ति।din·nā

    Atha kho so puriso āyasmantaṁ upanandaṁ sakyaputtaṁ etadavoca—“gacchatha, bhante, yato ayyassa bhikkhā dinnā”ti.

    Soon afterwards he said, “Please leave, sir, the alms have been given.”

13. 13

    अथa·tha खोkho साsā इत्थीit·thī सल्लक्खेत्वा—“परियुट्ठितोsal·lak·khet·vā अयंa·yaṃ पुरिसो”ति,pu·ri·so आयस्मन्तंā·yas·man·taṃ उपनन्दंu·pa·nan·daṃ सक्यपुत्तंsak·ya·put·taṃ एतदवोच—“निसीदथ,e·ta·da·vo·ca भन्ते,bhan·te माmā अगमित्था”ति।a·ga·mit·thā

    Atha kho sā itthī sallakkhetvā—“pariyuṭṭhito ayaṁ puriso”ti, āyasmantaṁ upanandaṁ sakyaputtaṁ etadavoca—“nisīdatha, bhante, mā agamitthā”ti.

    But the woman, knowing that her husband was lustful, said, “Please sit, sir, don’t go.”

14. 14

    दुतियम्पिdu·ti·yam·pi खोkho सोso पुरिसोpu·ri·so …पे…pe

    A second time and

    tatiyampi kho so puriso āyasmantaṁ upanandaṁ sakyaputtaṁ etadavoca—“gacchatha, bhante, yato ayyassa bhikkhā dinnā”ti.

    a third time he repeated his request,

16. 16

    Tatiyampi kho sā itthī āyasmantaṁ upanandaṁ sakyaputtaṁ etadavoca—“nisīdatha, bhante, mā agamitthā”ti.

    and both times his wife repeated hers.

    Atha kho so puriso nikkhamitvā bhikkhū ujjhāpesi—

    He then left the house and complained to the monks,

18. 18

    “अयं,a·yaṃ भन्ते,bhan·te अय्योay·yo उपनन्दोu·pa·nan·do मय्हंmay·haṃ पजापतियाpa·jā·pa·ti·yā सद्धिंsad·dhiṃ सयनिघरेsa·ya·ni·gha·re निसिन्नो।ni·sin·no

    “ayaṁ, bhante, ayyo upanando mayhaṁ pajāpatiyā saddhiṁ sayanighare nisinno.

    “Venerables, Venerable Upananda is seated with my wife in our bedroom.

    Ye te bhikkhū appicchā …pe… te ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—

    The monks of few desires complained and criticized Upananda,

    “How could Venerable Upananda sit down intruding on a lustful couple?” …

    “saccaṁ kira tvaṁ, upananda, sabhojane kule anupakhajja nisajjaṁ kappesī”ti?

    “Is it true, Upananda, that you did this?”

24. 24

    “सच्चं,sac·caṃ भगवा”ति।bha·ga·vā

    “Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.

    “It’s true, sir.”

    The Buddha rebuked him …

    kathañhi nāma tvaṁ, moghapurisa, sabhojane kule anupakhajja nisajjaṁ kappessasi.

    “Foolish man, how could you do this?
