Aṭṭhipuñjasutta

Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
vuttañhetaṁ → (sya-all, pts) | vuttañhetaṁ → vuttaṁ hetaṁ (bjt) | vuttamarahatāti → vuttamarahatā ti (pts)
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:

“Ekapuggalassa, bhikkhave, kappaṁ sandhāvato saṁsarato siyā evaṁ mahā aṭṭhikaṅkalo aṭṭhipuñjo aṭṭhirāsi yathāyaṁ vepullo pabbato, sace saṁhārako assa, sambhatañca na vinasseyyā”ti.
vepullo → vepulla (bj) | vepullo pabbato → vepullapabbato (sya-all, pts) | mahā → evaṁ samparāyikā mahā, B. (pts note) | aṭṭhikaṅkalo → aṭṭhikaṅkalo, B. M. P. (cp. Skr. kaṅkāla, asthikaṅkāla); aṭṭhikalo, C. D. E.; A. has: aṭṭhikalo ti aṭṭhibhāgo, aṭṭhicalo (sic !) ti paṭhanti aṭṭhi-sañcayo ti attho. (pts note) | aṭṭhirāsi → aṭṭhirāsi pi, B. (pts note) | vepullapabbato → vepullo pabb-, B. (pts note) | saṁhārako → saṁhārako, D. E. M. P. Pa.; saṁhāro ko, C.; saṁpahārato, B. (pts note) | sambhatañca → saṁhatañca, C. (pts note) | mahā aṭṭhikaṅkalo → mahāaṭṭhikaṅkalo (bjt) | vinasseyyāti → vinasseyyā-ti (pts)
“Monks, if a single person were to wander & transmigrate on for an eon, he/she would leave behind a chain of bones, a pile of bones, a heap of bones, as large as this Mount Vepulla, if there were someone to collect them and the collection were not destroyed.”

Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca.
etamatthaṁ → etam-atthaṁ (pts)
Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:

“Ekassekena kappena, puggalassaṭṭhisañcayo;
ekassekena → ekass-ekena (pts) puggalass-aṭṭhisañcayo → Ekassekassa puggalassa aṭṭhisañcayo, C. (pts note)
The accumulation of a single person’s bones for an eon
Siyā pabbatasamo rāsi, iti vuttaṁ mahesinā.
mahesinā → mahesiva, C. (pts note)
would be a heap on a par with the mountain, so said the Great Seer.

So kho panāyaṁ akkhāto, vepullo pabbato mahā;
So → yo, C. (pts note) vepullo → vepulla, D. E. (pts note)
(He declared this to be the great Mount Vepulla
Uttaro gijjhakūṭassa, magadhānaṁ giribbaje.
Gijjhakūṭassa → kijjha-, B. (pts note)
to the north of Vulture Peak in the mountain-ring of the Magadhans.)

Yato ca ariyasaccāni, sammappaññāya passati;
ca → (bj) | ca → va Aa, om. M. (pts note)
But when that person sees with right discernment the four Noble Truths–
Dukkhaṁ dukkhasamuppādaṁ, dukkhassa ca atikkamaṁ;stress, the cause of stress, the transcending of stress, Ariyañcaṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ, dukkhūpasamagāminaṁ.
ariyañcaṭṭhaṅgikaṁ → ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ (pts) | aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ → ariyaṭṭhaṅgikaṁ, B. M. P. Pa. (pts note) dukkhūpasamagāminaṁ → dukkhup-, B. M. P. Pa. (pts note)
& the noble eightfold path, the way to the stilling of stress–

Sa sattakkhattuṁ paramaṁ, sandhāvitvāna puggalo;
sa → (bj) | paramaṁ → paramañca (bj) | sa → om. B. (pts note)
having wandered on seven times at most, then,
Dukkhassantakaro hoti, sabbasaṁyojanakkhayā”ti.
sabbasaṁyojanakkhayāti → sabbasaṁyojanakkhayā ti (pts)
with the ending of all fetters, he makes an end of stress.

Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
ayampi → ayam-pi (pts) | sutanti → sutan-ti ek (pts)

Catutthaṁ.
catutthaṁ → catutthaṁ vuttaṁ hetaṁ (sya-all)
