MN 120 Rebirth by Choice – Saṅkhārupapattisutta
1.1
So I have heard.
Evaṁ me sutaṁ—
1.2
At one time the Buddha was staying near Sāvatthī in Jeta’s Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s monastery.
ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.
1.3
There the Buddha addressed the bhikkhū,
Tatra kho bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi:
1.4
“Bhikkhū!”
“bhikkhavo”ti.
1.5
“Venerable sir,” they replied.
“Bhadante”ti te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṁ.
1.6
The Buddha said this:
Bhagavā etadavoca:
2.1
“I shall teach you rebirth by choice.
“saṅkhārupapattiṁ vo, bhikkhave, desessāmi,
2.2
Listen and pay close attention, I will speak.”
taṁ suṇātha, sādhukaṁ manasi karotha, bhāsissāmī”ti.
2.3
“Yes, sir,” they replied.
“Evaṁ, bhante”ti kho te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṁ.
2.4
The Buddha said this:
Bhagavā etadavoca:
3.1
?Take a bhikkhu who has faith, ethics, learning, generosity, and wisdom.
“Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu saddhāya samannāgato hoti, sīlena samannāgato hoti, sutena samannāgato hoti, cāgena samannāgato hoti, paññāya samannāgato hoti.
3.2
They think:
Tassa evaṁ hoti:
3.3
‘If only, when my body breaks up, after death, I would be reborn in the company of well-to-do aristocrats!’
‘aho vatāhaṁ kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā khattiyamahāsālānaṁ sahabyataṁ upapajjeyyan’ti.
3.4
They settle on that thought, stabilize it and develop it.
So taṁ cittaṁ dahati, taṁ cittaṁ adhiṭṭhāti, taṁ cittaṁ bhāveti.
3.5
Those actions done with defilement and meditations of theirs, developed and cultivated like this, lead to rebirth there.
Tassa te saṅkhārā ca vihārā ca evaṁ bhāvitā evaṁ bahulīkatā tatrupapattiyā saṁvattanti.

4-5.4
well-to-do householders.’
gahapatimahāsālānaṁ sahabyataṁ upapajjeyyan’ti.
4-5.5
They settle on that thought, stabilize it and develop it.
So taṁ cittaṁ dahati, taṁ cittaṁ adhiṭṭhāti, taṁ cittaṁ bhāveti.
4-5.6
