Samyuktagama (Sanskrit fragments) 194

194.1

（一九四）

(194)

Thus I have heard: One time, the Buddha was staying at Anāthapiṇḍada’s Park in Jeta’s Grove of Śrāvastī.

194.2

如是我聞：

Thus have I heard:

194.3

一時，佛住舍衛國祇樹給孤獨園。

At one time, the Buddha was dwelling at the Jetavana Anāthapiṇḍadārāma in Śrāvastī.

194.4

爾時，世尊告諸比丘：「若於眼生喜者，則於苦生喜，若於苦生喜者，我說彼不解脫於苦。於耳、鼻、舌、身、意生喜者，則於苦生喜，於苦生喜者，我說彼不解脫於苦。

At that time, the Bhagavat told the bhikṣus: "If one takes delight in the eye, then one takes delight in duḥkha; if one takes delight in duḥkha, I say that they are not liberated from duḥkha. If one takes delight in the ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind, then one takes delight in duḥkha; if one takes delight in duḥkha, I say that they are not liberated from duḥkha.

It was then that the Bhagavān addressed the monks, “If someone’s delight arises from the eye, then their delight arises from suffering. If someone’s delight arises from suffering, I say they are not liberated from suffering. If someone’s delight arises from the ear … nose … tongue … body … mind, then their delight arises from suffering. If someone’s delight arises from suffering, I say they are not liberated from suffering.

194.5

「諸比丘！若於眼不生喜者，則於苦不生喜，於苦不生喜者，我說彼解脫於苦。於耳、鼻、舌、身、意不生喜者，則於苦不生喜，於苦不生喜者，我說彼解脫於苦。」

"Bhikṣus, if one does not take delight in the eye, then one does not take delight in duḥkha; if one does not take delight in duḥkha, I say that they are liberated from duḥkha. If one does not take delight in the ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind, then one does not take delight in duḥkha; if one does not take delight in duḥkha, I say that they are liberated from duḥkha."

“Monks, if someone’s delight doesn’t arise from the eye, then their delight doesn’t arise from suffering. If someone’s delight doesn’t arise from suffering, I say they are liberated from suffering. If someone’s delight doesn’t arise from the ear … nose … tongue … body … mind, then their delight doesn’t arise from suffering. If someone’s delight doesn’t arise from suffering, I say they are liberated from suffering.”

194.6

佛說此經已，諸比丘聞佛所說，歡喜奉行。

When the Buddha had spoken this sūtra, the bhikṣus heard what the Buddha had said, rejoiced, and received it with respect.

After the Buddha spoke this sūtra, the monks who heard what the Buddha taught rejoiced and approved.
