Dutiyavedanāsutta
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
“Tisso imā, bhikkhave, vedanā.“Monks, there are these three feelings.
Katamā tisso?Which three?
Sukhā vedanā, dukkhā vedanā, adukkhamasukhā vedanā.A feeling of pleasure, a feeling of pain, a feeling of neither pleasure nor pain.
Sukhā, bhikkhave, vedanā dukkhato daṭṭhabbā;A feeling of pleasure should be seen as stressful.
dukkhā vedanā sallato daṭṭhabbā;A feeling of pain should be seen as an arrow.
adukkhamasukhā vedanā aniccato daṭṭhabbā.A feeling of neither pleasure nor pain should be seen as inconstant.
Yato kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno sukhā vedanā dukkhato diṭṭhā hoti, dukkhā vedanā sallato diṭṭhā hoti, adukkhamasukhā vedanā aniccato diṭṭhā hoti;When a monk has seen a feeling of pleasure as stressful, a feeling of pain as an arrow,
and a feeling of neither pleasure nor pain as inconstant, then he is called a monk who is noble,
ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, ‘bhikkhu ariyo, sammaddaso, acchecchi taṇhaṁ, vivattayi saṁyojanaṁ, sammā mānābhisamayā antamakāsi dukkhassā’”ti.
acchecchi → acchejji (pts-vp-pli1); acchijji (mr) | vivattayi → vāvattayi (bj); vivaṭṭayi (pts-vp-pli1) | adda → ddakkhi (bj); addakkhi (sya-all); dakkhi (pts-vp-pli1, mr)who has seen rightly, who has cut off craving, destroyed the fetters, and who–
from the right breaking-through of conceit–has put an end to suffering & stress.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
“Yo sukhaṁ dukkhato adda, dukkhamaddakkhi sallato;Whoever sees pleasure as stress, sees pain as an arrow, Adukkhamasukhaṁ santaṁ, adakkhi naṁ aniccato.sees peaceful neither pleasure nor pain as inconstant:
Sa ve sammaddaso bhikkhu, yato tattha vimuccati;he is a monk who’s seen rightly. from that he is there released. Abhiññāvosito santo, sa ve yogātigo munī”ti.A master of direct knowing, at peace, he is a sage gone beyond bonds.
