At Sāvatthī.
Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
Then a bhikkhu went up to the Buddha, bowed, sat down to one side, and said to him:
Atha kho aññataro bhikkhu yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho so bhikkhu bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
“Sir, how does one know and see so as to give up ignorance and give rise to knowledge?”
“kathaṁ nu kho, bhante, jānato kathaṁ passato avijjā pahīyati, vijjā uppajjatī”ti?
“Bhikkhu, knowing and seeing the eye, sights, eye consciousness, and eye contact as anicca, ignorance is given up and knowledge arises.
“Cakkhuṁ kho, bhikkhu, aniccato jānato passato avijjā pahīyati, vijjā uppajjati.
Rūpe aniccato jānato passato avijjā pahīyati, vijjā uppajjati.
Cakkhuviññāṇaṁ …
cakkhusamphassaṁ …
And also knowing and seeing the pleasant, painful, or neutral feeling that arises conditioned by eye contact as anicca, ignorance is given up and knowledge arises.
yampidaṁ cakkhusamphassapaccayā uppajjati vedayitaṁ sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā tampi aniccato jānato passato avijjā pahīyati, vijjā uppajjati.
Knowing and seeing the ear …
Sotaṁ …
nose …
ghānaṁ …
tongue …
jivhaṁ …
body …
kāyaṁ …
Knowing and seeing the mind, thoughts, mind consciousness, and mind contact as anicca, ignorance is given up and knowledge arises.
manaṁ aniccato jānato passato avijjā pahīyati, vijjā uppajjati.
Dhamme …
manoviññāṇaṁ …
manosamphassaṁ …
And also knowing and seeing the pleasant, painful, or neutral feeling that arises conditioned by mind contact as anicca, ignorance is given up and knowledge arises.
yampidaṁ manosamphassapaccayā uppajjati vedayitaṁ sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā tampi aniccato jānato passato avijjā pahīyati, vijjā uppajjati.
That’s how to know and see so as to give up ignorance and give rise to knowledge.”
Evaṁ kho, bhikkhu, jānato evaṁ passato avijjā pahīyati, vijjā uppajjatī”ti.
