Tena → idaṁ vatthu cūḷava. 343 (cck note)At one time when the Buddha was staying at Rājagaha in the Bamboo Grove, Atha kho devadatto yena kokāliko kaṭamodakatissako khaṇḍadeviyā putto samuddadatto tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā kokālikaṁ kaṭamodakatissakaṁ khaṇḍadeviyā puttaṁ samuddadattaṁ etadavoca—

Comp Cullavagga, VII.3.14, and the various readings, Cullav., p. 324. (pts note) | Samuddadatto → Samuddadattiko, Samuddadattikaṁ A. (pts note)Devadatta went to Kokālika, Kaṭamodakatissaka, Khaṇḍadeviyāputta, and Samuddadatta. He said to them, “etha mayaṁ, āvuso, samaṇassa gotamassa saṅghabhedaṁ karissāma cakkabhedan”ti.“Let’s cause a schism in the Sangha of the ascetic Gotama. Let’s break its authority.”

Evaṁ vutte, kokāliko devadattaṁ etadavoca—Kokālika said to Devadatta, “samaṇo kho, āvuso, gotamo mahiddhiko mahānubhāvo.“The ascetic Gotama is powerful and mighty. Kathaṁ mayaṁ samaṇassa gotamassa saṅghabhedaṁ karissāma cakkabhedan”ti?How can we achieve this?”

“Etha mayaṁ, āvuso, samaṇaṁ gotamaṁ upasaṅkamitvā pañca vatthūni yācissāma—“Well, let’s go to the ascetic Gotama and request five things: ‘bhagavā, bhante, anekapariyāyena appicchassa santuṭṭhassa sallekhassa dhutassa pāsādikassa apacayassa vīriyārambhassa vaṇṇavādī.

Imāni, bhante, pañca vatthūni anekapariyāyena appicchatāya santuṭṭhiyā sallekhāya dhutatāya pāsādikatāya apacayāya vīriyārambhāya saṁvattanti.

Sādhu, bhante, bhikkhūIt would be good, sir:

2. Yāvajīvaṁ piṇḍapātikā assu;If they ate only almsfood for life, yo nimantanaṁ sādiyeyya, vajjaṁ naṁ phuseyya.and whoever accepted an invitational meal would commit an offense,

Imāni samaṇo gotamo nānujānissati.The ascetic Gotama won’t allow this. Te mayaṁ imehi pañcahi vatthūhi janaṁ saññāpessāmāti.We’ll then be able to win people over with these five points.”

Lūkhapasannā → lūkhappasannā (bj, sya-all, pts1ed 4V.343/1)for people have confidence in austerity.”

Atha kho devadatto sapariso yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi.
nisīdi → nisīdiṁsu (sya-all)Devadatta and his followers then went to the Buddha, bowed and sat down, Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho devadatto bhagavantaṁ etadavoca—and Devadatta made his request. “bhagavā, bhante, anekapariyāyena appicchassa …pe… vīriyārambhassa vaṇṇavādī.

sapariso → (bj, pts) | sapariso → potthakesu ayaṁ pāṭho na hoti (sya-all: yu. ma.)Devadatta then entered Rājagaha and won people over with the five points, “mayaṁ, āvuso, samaṇaṁ gotamaṁ upasaṅkamitvā pañca vatthūni yācimhā—

byattā → (bj, sya-all, pts) | khiyyanti → khīyanti (bj, sya-all, pts)But the wise people who had faith and confidence complained and criticized Devadatta, “kathañhi nāma devadatto bhagavato saṅghabhedāya parakkamissati cakkabhedāyā”ti.“How can Devadatta pursue schism in the Sangha of the Buddha? How can he break its authority?”

Assosuṁ kho bhikkhū tesaṁ manussānaṁ ujjhāyantānaṁ khiyyantānaṁ vipācentānaṁ.

Soon afterwards he had the Sangha gathered and questioned Devadatta: “saccaṁ kira tvaṁ, devadatta, saṅghabhedāya parakkamasi cakkabhedāyā”ti?“Is it true, Devadatta, that you are doing this?”

“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.“It’s true, sir.”
