Dhātusutta
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
“Tisso imā, bhikkhave, dhātuyo.“Monks, there are these three properties. Katamā tisso?Which three? Rūpadhātu, arūpadhātu, nirodhadhātu—The property of form, the property of formlessness, the property of cessation. imā kho, bhikkhave, tisso dhātuyo”ti.These are the three properties.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
“Rūpadhātuṁ pariññāya, āruppesu asaṇṭhitā;
Rūpadhātuṁ → rūpadhātu (sabbattha)Comprehending the property of form, not taking a stance in the formless, Nirodhe ye vimuccanti, te janā maccuhāyino.those released in cessation are people who’ve left death behind.Kāyena amataṁ dhātuṁ, phusayitvā nirūpadhiṁ;
phusayitvā → phassayitvā (bj, pts-vp-pli1); phussayitvā (sya-all)Having touched with his body the deathless property free from acquisitions, Upadhippaṭinissaggaṁ, sacchikatvā anāsavo;having realized the relinquishing of acquisitions, effluent-free, Deseti sammāsambuddho, asokaṁ virajaṁ padan”ti.the Rightly Self-awakened One teaches the state with no sorrow, no dust.
