“Etāni, bhante, sāriputtamoggallānappamukhāni pañcamattāni bhikkhusatāni cātumaṁ anuppattāni bhagavantaṁ dassanāya.“Lord, those are approximately 500 monks, headed by Sāriputta & Moggallāna, who have arrived in Cātumā to see the Blessed One.

As they were sitting there, the Blessed One said to them,

Setting their lodgings in order and taking their robes & bowls, they left.

“Bhagavatā kho, āvuso, bhikkhusaṅgho paṇāmito”ti.“Friends, the community of monks has been dismissed by the Blessed One.”

“Tenahāyasmanto muhuttaṁ nisīdatha, appeva nāma mayaṁ sakkuṇeyyāma bhagavantaṁ pasādetun”ti.“In that case, venerable ones, sit down for a moment. Perhaps we will be able to reconcile the Blessed One.”

As they were sitting there, they said to the Blessed One,

Asakkhiṁsu kho cātumeyyakā ca sakyā brahmā ca sahampati bhagavantaṁ pasādetuṁ bījūpamena ca taruṇūpamena ca.And so the Cātumā Sakyans & Brahmā Sahampati were able to reconcile the Blessed One by means of the simile of the seedlings & the simile of the young calf.

Idha, bhikkhave, ekacco kulaputto saddhā agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajito hoti:There is the case where a son of a good family, out of conviction, has gone forth from the home life into homelessness, (thinking,) ‘otiṇṇomhi jātiyā jarāya maraṇena sokehi paridevehi dukkhehi domanassehi upāyāsehi dukkhotiṇṇo dukkhapareto;‘I am beset by birth, aging, & death; by sorrows, lamentations, pains, distresses, & despairs; beset by stress, overcome with stress. appeva nāma imassa kevalassa dukkhakkhandhassa antakiriyā paññāyethā’ti.O, that the end of this entire mass of suffering & stress might be known!’ So evaṁ pabbajito samāno pubbaṇhasamayaṁ nivāsetvā pattacīvaramādāya gāmaṁ vā nigamaṁ vā piṇḍāya pavisati.Early in the morning, having adjusted his under robe and carrying his bowl & robes, he goes into a village or town for alms, Arakkhiteneva kāyena arakkhitāya vācāya anupaṭṭhitāya satiyā asaṁvutehi indriyehi so tattha passati mātugāmaṁ dunnivatthaṁ vā duppārutaṁ vā.with his body unguarded, his speech unguarded, his mindfulness unestablished, his faculties unrestrained. Tassa mātugāmaṁ disvā dunnivatthaṁ vā duppārutaṁ vā rāgo cittaṁ anuddhaṁseti.He sees a woman scantily clothed, scantily dressed. On seeing a woman scantily clothed, scantily dressed, lust agitates his mind. So rāgānuddhaṁsena cittena sikkhaṁ paccakkhāya hīnāyāvattati.With his mind agitated by lust, he disavows the training and returns to the lower life. Ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, susukābhayassa bhīto sikkhaṁ paccakkhāya hīnāyāvatto.This, monks, is called one who has disavowed the training frightened by the danger from sharks— ‘Susukābhayan’ti kho, bhikkhave, mātugāmassetaṁ adhivacanaṁ.for ‘danger from sharks’ is a synonym for a woman.

Imāni kho, bhikkhave, cattāri bhayāni, idhekacce puggale imasmiṁ dhammavinaye agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajite pāṭikaṅkhitabbānī”ti.“These, monks, are the four dangers to be expected by certain individuals who have gone forth from home life into homelessness in this Dhamma & Vinaya.”

Idamavoca bhagavā.That is what the Blessed One said. Attamanā te bhikkhū bhagavato bhāsitaṁ abhinandunti.

Cātumasuttaṁ niṭṭhitaṁ sattamaṁ.
