Evaṁ me sutaṁ—I have heard ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.that on one occasion the Blessed One was staying near Sāvatthī in Jeta’s Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s monastery. Tatra kho bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi:There he addressed the monks: “bhikkhavo”ti.“Monks!”
“Bhadante”ti te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṁ.“Yes, lord,” the monks responded to him. Bhagavā etadavoca:The Blessed One said,
“sabbāsavasaṁvarapariyāyaṁ vo, bhikkhave, desessāmi. Taṁ suṇātha, sādhukaṁ manasi karotha, bhāsissāmī”ti.
“Evaṁ, bhante”ti kho te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṁ. Bhagavā etadavoca:
“Jānato ahaṁ, bhikkhave, passato āsavānaṁ khayaṁ vadāmi, no ajānato no apassato.“Monks, the ending of the effluents is for one who knows & sees, I tell you, not for one who doesn’t know & doesn’t see. Kiñca, bhikkhave, jānato kiñca passato āsavānaṁ khayaṁ vadāmi?For one who knows what & sees what? Yoniso ca manasikāraṁ ayoniso ca manasikāraṁ.Appropriate attention & inappropriate attention. Ayoniso, bhikkhave, manasikaroto anuppannā ceva āsavā uppajjanti, uppannā ca āsavā pavaḍḍhanti;When a monk attends inappropriately, unarisen effluents arise, and arisen effluents increase. yoniso ca kho, bhikkhave, manasikaroto anuppannā ceva āsavā na uppajjanti, uppannā ca āsavā pahīyanti.When a monk attends appropriately, unarisen effluents do not arise, and arisen effluents are abandoned.
Atthi, bhikkhave, āsavā dassanā pahātabbā, atthi āsavā saṁvarā pahātabbā, atthi āsavā paṭisevanā pahātabbā, atthi āsavā adhivāsanā pahātabbā, atthi āsavā parivajjanā pahātabbā, atthi āsavā vinodanā pahātabbā, atthi āsavā bhāvanā pahātabbā.There are effluents to be abandoned by seeing, those to be abandoned by restraining, those to be abandoned by using, those to be abandoned by tolerating, those to be abandoned by avoiding, those to be abandoned by destroying, and those to be abandoned by developing.
1. Dassanāpahātabbaāsava
Katame ca, bhikkhave, āsavā dassanā pahātabbā?“[1] And what are the effluents to be abandoned by seeing? Idha, bhikkhave, assutavā puthujjano ariyānaṁ adassāvī ariyadhammassa akovido ariyadhamme avinīto, sappurisānaṁ adassāvī sappurisadhammassa akovido sappurisadhamme avinīto—There is the case where an uninstructed run-of-the-mill person—who has no regard for noble ones, is not well-versed or disciplined in their Dhamma; who has no regard for people of integrity, is not well-versed or disciplined in their Dhamma— manasikaraṇīye dhamme nappajānāti, amanasikaraṇīye dhamme nappajānāti.doesn’t discern what ideas are fit for attention or what ideas are unfit for attention. So manasikaraṇīye dhamme appajānanto amanasikaraṇīye dhamme appajānanto, ye dhammā na manasikaraṇīyā, te dhamme manasi karoti, ye dhammā manasikaraṇīyā te dhamme na manasi karoti.This being so, he doesn’t attend to ideas fit for attention and attends (instead) to ideas unfit for attention.
Katame ca, bhikkhave, dhammā na manasikaraṇīyā ye dhamme manasi karoti?“And what are the ideas unfit for attention that he attends to? Yassa, bhikkhave, dhamme manasikaroto anuppanno vā kāmāsavo uppajjati, uppanno vā kāmāsavo pavaḍḍhati;Whatever ideas such that, when he attends to them, the unarisen effluent of sensuality arises in him, and the arisen effluent of sensuality increases; anuppanno vā bhavāsavo uppajjati, uppanno vā bhavāsavo pavaḍḍhati;the unarisen effluent of becoming arises in him, and the arisen effluent of becoming increases; anuppanno vā avijjāsavo uppajjati, uppanno vā avijjāsavo pavaḍḍhati—the unarisen effluent of ignorance arises in him, and the arisen effluent of ignorance increases. ime dhammā na manasikaraṇīyā ye dhamme manasi karoti.These are the ideas unfit for attention that he attends to.
Katame ca, bhikkhave, dhammā manasikaraṇīyā ye dhamme na manasi karoti?“And what are the ideas fit for attention that he doesn’t attend to? Yassa, bhikkhave, dhamme manasikaroto anuppanno vā kāmāsavo na uppajjati, uppanno vā kāmāsavo pahīyati;Whatever ideas such that, when he attends to them, the unarisen effluent of sensuality doesn’t arise in him, and the arisen effluent of sensuality is abandoned; anuppanno vā bhavāsavo na uppajjati, uppanno vā bhavāsavo pahīyati;the unarisen effluent of becoming doesn’t arise in him, and the arisen effluent of becoming is abandoned; anuppanno vā avijjāsavo na uppajjati, uppanno vā avijjāsavo pahīyati—the unarisen effluent of ignorance doesn’t arise in him, and the arisen effluent of ignorance is abandoned. ime dhammā manasikaraṇīyā ye dhamme na manasi karoti.These are the ideas fit for attention that he doesn’t attend to.
Tassa amanasikaraṇīyānaṁ dhammānaṁ manasikārā manasikaraṇīyānaṁ dhammānaṁ amanasikārā anuppannā ceva āsavā uppajjanti uppannā ca āsavā pavaḍḍhanti.Through his attending to ideas unfit for attention and through his not attending to ideas fit for attention, both unarisen effluents arise in him, and arisen effluents increase.
So evaṁ ayoniso manasi karoti:“This is how he attends inappropriately: ‘ahosiṁ nu kho ahaṁ atītamaddhānaṁ? Na nu kho ahosiṁ atītamaddhānaṁ? Kiṁ nu kho ahosiṁ atītamaddhānaṁ? Kathaṁ nu kho ahosiṁ atītamaddhānaṁ? Kiṁ hutvā kiṁ ahosiṁ nu kho ahaṁ atītamaddhānaṁ?‘Was I in the past? Was I not in the past? What was I in the past? How was I in the past? Having been what, what was I in the past? Bhavissāmi nu kho ahaṁ anāgatamaddhānaṁ? Na nu kho bhavissāmi anāgatamaddhānaṁ? Kiṁ nu kho bhavissāmi anāgatamaddhānaṁ? Kathaṁ nu kho bhavissāmi anāgatamaddhānaṁ? Kiṁ hutvā kiṁ bhavissāmi nu kho ahaṁ anāgatamaddhānan’ti?Shall I be in the future? Shall I not be in the future? What shall I be in the future? How shall I be in the future? Having been what, what shall I be in the future?’ Etarahi vā paccuppannamaddhānaṁ ajjhattaṁ kathaṅkathī hoti:Or else he is inwardly perplexed about the immediate present: ‘ahaṁ nu khosmi? No nu khosmi? Kiṁ nu khosmi? Kathaṁ nu khosmi? Ayaṁ nu kho satto kuto āgato? So kuhiṁ gāmī bhavissatī’ti?‘Am I? Am I not? What am I? How am I? Where has this being come from? Where is it bound?’
Tassa evaṁ ayoniso manasikaroto channaṁ diṭṭhīnaṁ aññatarā diṭṭhi uppajjati.
assa → vāssa (bj, sya-all, pts1ed)“As he attends inappropriately in this way, one of six kinds of view arises in him:
‘Atthi me attā’ti vā assa saccato thetato diṭṭhi uppajjati;The view I have a self arises in him as true & established,
‘natthi me attā’ti vā assa saccato thetato diṭṭhi uppajjati;or the view I have no self …
‘attanāva attānaṁ sañjānāmī’ti vā assa saccato thetato diṭṭhi uppajjati;or the view It is precisely by means of self that I perceive self …
‘attanāva anattānaṁ sañjānāmī’ti vā assa saccato thetato diṭṭhi uppajjati;or the view It is precisely by means of self that I perceive not-self …
‘anattanāva attānaṁ sañjānāmī’ti vā assa saccato thetato diṭṭhi uppajjati;or the view It is precisely by means of not-self that I perceive self arises in him as true & established,
atha vā panassa evaṁ diṭṭhi hoti:or else he has a view like this:
‘yo me ayaṁ attā vado vedeyyo tatra tatra kalyāṇapāpakānaṁ kammānaṁ vipākaṁ paṭisaṁvedeti so kho pana me ayaṁ attā nicco dhuvo sassato avipariṇāmadhammo sassatisamaṁ tatheva ṭhassatī’ti.This very self of mine—the knower that is sensitive here & there to the ripening of good & bad actions—is the self of mine that is constant, everlasting, eternal, not subject to change, and will endure as long as eternity.
Idaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, diṭṭhigataṁ diṭṭhigahanaṁ diṭṭhikantāraṁ diṭṭhivisūkaṁ diṭṭhivipphanditaṁ diṭṭhisaṁyojanaṁ.This is called a thicket of views, a wilderness of views, a contortion of views, a writhing of views, a fetter of views.
Diṭṭhisaṁyojanasaṁyutto, bhikkhave, assutavā puthujjano na parimuccati jātiyā jarāya maraṇena sokehi paridevehi dukkhehi domanassehi upāyāsehi;Bound by a fetter of views, the uninstructed run-of-the-mill person is not freed from birth, aging, & death, from sorrow, lamentation, pain, distress, & despair.
‘na parimuccati dukkhasmā’ti vadāmi.He is not freed, I tell you, from suffering & stress.
Sutavā ca kho, bhikkhave, ariyasāvako—“The well-instructed disciple of the noble ones— ariyānaṁ dassāvī ariyadhammassa kovido ariyadhamme suvinīto, sappurisānaṁ dassāvī sappurisadhammassa kovido sappurisadhamme suvinīto—who has regard for noble ones, is well-versed & disciplined in their Dhamma; who has regard for people of integrity, is well-versed & disciplined in their Dhamma— manasikaraṇīye dhamme pajānāti amanasikaraṇīye dhamme pajānāti.discerns what ideas are fit for attention and what ideas are unfit for attention. So manasikaraṇīye dhamme pajānanto amanasikaraṇīye dhamme pajānanto ye dhammā na manasikaraṇīyā te dhamme na manasi karoti, ye dhammā manasikaraṇīyā te dhamme manasi karoti.This being so, he doesn’t attend to ideas unfit for attention and attends (instead) to ideas fit for attention.
Katame ca, bhikkhave, dhammā na manasikaraṇīyā ye dhamme na manasi karoti?“And what are the ideas unfit for attention that he doesn’t attend to? Yassa, bhikkhave, dhamme manasikaroto anuppanno vā kāmāsavo uppajjati, uppanno vā kāmāsavo pavaḍḍhati;Whatever ideas such that, when he attends to them, the unarisen effluent of sensuality arises in him, and the arisen effluent of sensuality increases; anuppanno vā bhavāsavo uppajjati, uppanno vā bhavāsavo pavaḍḍhati;the unarisen effluent of becoming arises in him, and the arisen effluent of becoming increases; anuppanno vā avijjāsavo uppajjati, uppanno vā avijjāsavo pavaḍḍhati—the unarisen effluent of ignorance arises in him, and the arisen effluent of ignorance increases. ime dhammā na manasikaraṇīyā, ye dhamme na manasi karoti.These are the ideas unfit for attention that he doesn’t attend to.

Yassa, bhikkhave, dhamme manasikaroto anuppanno vā kāmāsavo na uppajjati, uppanno vā kāmāsavo pahīyati;Whatever ideas such that, when he attends to them, the unarisen effluent of sensuality doesn’t arise in him, and the arisen effluent of sensuality is abandoned; anuppanno vā bhavāsavo na uppajjati, uppanno vā bhavāsavo pahīyati;the unarisen effluent of becoming doesn’t arise in him, and the arisen effluent of becoming is abandoned; anuppanno vā avijjāsavo na uppajjati, uppanno vā avijjāsavo pahīyati—the unarisen effluent of ignorance doesn’t arise in him, and the arisen effluent of ignorance is abandoned. ime dhammā manasikaraṇīyā ye dhamme manasi karoti.These are the ideas fit for attention that he does attend to.
Tassa amanasikaraṇīyānaṁ dhammānaṁ amanasikārā manasikaraṇīyānaṁ dhammānaṁ manasikārā anuppannā ceva āsavā na uppajjanti, uppannā ca āsavā pahīyanti.Through his not attending to ideas unfit for attention and through his attending to ideas fit for attention, unarisen effluents do not arise in him, and arisen effluents are abandoned.
So ‘idaṁ dukkhan’ti yoniso manasi karoti, ‘ayaṁ dukkhasamudayo’ti yoniso manasi karoti, ‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodho’ti yoniso manasi karoti, ‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā’ti yoniso manasi karoti.“He attends appropriately, This is stress … This is the origination of stress … This is the cessation of stress … This is the way leading to the cessation of stress. Tassa evaṁ yoniso manasikaroto tīṇi saṁyojanāni pahīyanti—As he attends appropriately in this way, three fetters are abandoned in him: sakkāyadiṭṭhi, vicikicchā, sīlabbataparāmāso.self-identification view, doubt, and grasping at habits & practices. Ime vuccanti, bhikkhave, āsavā dassanā pahātabbā.These are called the effluents to be abandoned by seeing.
2. Saṁvarāpahātabbaāsava
Katame ca, bhikkhave, āsavā saṁvarā pahātabbā?“[2] And what are the effluents to be abandoned by restraining? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu paṭisaṅkhā yoniso cakkhundriyasaṁvarasaṁvuto viharati.There is the case where a monk, reflecting appropriately, dwells restrained with the restraint of the eye-faculty.

Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu paṭisaṅkhā yoniso cīvaraṁ paṭisevati:There is the case where a monk, reflecting appropriately, ‘yāvadeva sītassa paṭighātāya, uṇhassa paṭighātāya, ḍaṁsamakasavātātapasarīsapasamphassānaṁ paṭighātāya, yāvadeva hirikopīnappaṭicchādanatthaṁ’.uses the robe simply to counteract cold, to counteract heat, to counteract the touch of flies, mosquitoes, wind, sun, & reptiles; simply for the purpose of covering the parts of the body that cause shame.
Paṭisaṅkhā yoniso piṇḍapātaṁ paṭisevati:“Reflecting appropriately, he uses alms food,
‘neva davāya, na madāya, na maṇḍanāya, na vibhūsanāya, yāvadeva imassa kāyassa ṭhitiyā yāpanāya, vihiṁsūparatiyā, brahmacariyānuggahāya, iti purāṇañca vedanaṁ paṭihaṅkhāmi navañca vedanaṁ na uppādessāmi, yātrā ca me bhavissati anavajjatā ca phāsuvihāro ca’.
ca → cāti (bj, sya-all, pts1ed)not playfully, nor for intoxication, nor for putting on bulk, nor for beautification; but simply for the survival & continuance of this body, for ending its afflictions, for the support of the holy life, thinking, ‘Thus will I destroy old feelings (of hunger) and not create new feelings (from overeating). I will maintain myself, be blameless, & live in comfort.’
Paṭisaṅkhā yoniso senāsanaṁ paṭisevati:“Reflecting appropriately, he uses lodging ‘yāvadeva sītassa paṭighātāya, uṇhassa paṭighātāya, ḍaṁsamakasavātātapasarīsapasamphassānaṁ paṭighātāya, yāvadeva utuparissayavinodanapaṭisallānārāmatthaṁ’.simply to counteract cold, to counteract heat, to counteract the touch of flies, mosquitoes, wind, sun, & reptiles; simply for protection from the inclemencies of weather and for the enjoyment of seclusion.

ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave: ‘bhikkhu sabbāsavasaṁvarasaṁvuto viharati, acchecchi taṇhaṁ, vivattayi saṁyojanaṁ, sammā mānābhisamayā antamakāsi dukkhassā’”ti.
acchecchi → acchejji (mr) | vivattayi → vāvattayi (bj, pts1ed)He has severed craving, thrown off the fetters, and—through the right penetration of conceit—has made an end of suffering & stress.”
Idamavoca bhagavā.That is what the Blessed One said. Attamanā te bhikkhū bhagavato bhāsitaṁ abhinandunti.Gratified, the monks delighted in the Blessed One’s words.
