Kāmūpapattisutta
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
“Tisso imā, bhikkhave, kāmūpapattiyo.
kāmūpapattiyo → kāmuppattiyo (bj); kāmupapattiyo (pts-vp-pli1)“Monks, there are these three ways of obtaining sensual pleasures.
Katamā tisso?Which three?
Paccupaṭṭhitakāmā, nimmānaratino, paranimmitavasavattino—Those whose sensual pleasures are already provided,
those who delight in creating, those with control over what is created by others.
imā kho, bhikkhave, tisso kāmūpapattiyo”ti.These are the three ways of obtaining sensual pleasures.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
“Paccupaṭṭhitakāmā ca, ye devā vasavattino;Devas whose pleasures are already provided, those with control, Nimmānaratino devā, ye caññe kāmabhogino;those who delight in creation, and any others enjoying sensual pleasures Itthabhāvaññathābhāvaṁ, saṁsāraṁ nātivattare.in this state here or anywhere else, don’t go beyond the wandering-on.

Ariyaddasā vedaguno, sammadaññāya paṇḍitā;They, the wise, with an attainer-of-wisdom’s noble vision, right gnosis, Jātikkhayamabhiññāya, nāgacchanti punabbhavan”ti.directly knowing the ending of birth, come to no further becoming.
