### [1.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.730.1.48)

佛弟子阿那律、難提、金毘羅三人共坐，自思惟七事：一者、少欲得道，多欲不得道；二者、知足得道，不知足不得道；三者、精進得道，不精進不得道；四者、守六衰使不起得道，不守六衰，放使起者不得道；五者、自護得道，不自護不得道；六者、守意得道，不守意不得道；七者、智慧得道，不智慧不得道；共思惟七事。時去佛六十里。佛時坐禪，即知三人所念，便移意往坐三人前言：「善哉！善哉！我復語汝一事：不念家欲得道、念家欲不得道。」於是三人歡喜，即得菩薩。

> The Buddha's disciples Aniruddha, Nandika, and Kimbila sat together and contemplated seven things on their own: 'First, having few desires leads to attaining the Way, while having many desires does not lead to attaining the Way; second, contentment leads to attaining the Way, while discontent does not lead to attaining the Way; third, vigor leads to attaining the Way, while lack of vigor does not lead to attaining the Way; fourth, guarding the six defilements so that they do not arise leads to attaining the Way, while failing to guard the six defilements and letting them arise does not lead to attaining the Way; fifth, guarding oneself leads to attaining the Way, while not guarding oneself does not lead to attaining the Way; sixth, guarding the mind leads to attaining the Way, while not guarding the mind does not lead to attaining the Way; seventh, wisdom leads to attaining the Way, while lack of wisdom does not lead to attaining the Way.' They contemplated these seven things together. At that time, they were sixty li away from the Buddha. The Buddha was sitting in meditation at that moment, immediately knew what the three were thinking, and shifted his presence to sit before the three, saying: 'Excellent! Excellent! I shall tell you another thing: not thinking of household desires leads to attaining the Way; thinking of household desires does not lead to attaining the Way.' Thereupon the three rejoiced and immediately attained bodhisattvahood.
