4. AttakāmapāricariyasikkhāpadaEncouraging a woman to satisfy one’s desires

Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery. Tena kho pana samayena āyasmā udāyī sāvatthiyaṁ kulūpako hoti, bahukāni kulāni upasaṅkamati.
kulūpako → kulūpago (bj) | udāyī → udāyi (sya-all, pts)
At that time Venerable Udāyī was associating with and visiting a number of families in Sāvatthī.
Tena kho pana samayena aññatarā itthī matapatikā abhirūpā hoti dassanīyā pāsādikā.
itthī → itthi (bj, pts)
Atha kho āyasmā udāyī pubbaṇhasamayaṁ nivāsetvā pattacīvaramādāya yena tassā itthiyā nivesanaṁ tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā paññatte āsane nisīdi.
udāyī → udāyi (sya-all, pts)
One morning Udāyī robed up, took his bowl and robe, and went to the house of a beautiful widow where he sat down on the prepared seat.
Atha kho sā itthī yenāyasmā udāyī tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi.
itthī → itthi (bj, pts) | udāyī → udāyi (sya-all) | udāyī tenupasaṅkami → udāyi ten upasaṁkami (pts)
She then approached Udāyī, bowed, and sat down.
Ekamantaṁ nisinnaṁ kho taṁ itthiṁ āyasmā udāyī dhammiyā kathāya sandassesi samādapesi samuttejesi sampahaṁsesi.
udāyī → udāyi (sya-all, pts)
And Udāyī instructed, inspired, and gladdened her with a teaching.
Atha kho sā itthī āyasmatā udāyinā dhammiyā kathāya sandassitā samādapitā samuttejitā sampahaṁsitā āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ etadavoca—
itthī → itthi (bj, pts) | sandassitā samādapitā samuttejitā → (pts)
She then said,
“vadeyyātha, bhante, yena attho.“Venerable, please tell me what you need. Paṭibalā mayaṁ ayyassa dātuṁ yadidaṁ cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānappaccayabhesajjaparikkhāran”ti.
yadidaṁ cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānappaccayabhesajjaparikkhāranti → yad idaṁ cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānapaccayabhesajjaparikkhārānan ti (pts) | cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānapaccayabhesajjaparikkhāranti → parikkhārānanti (sya-all: yu.)
I can give robe-cloth, almsfood, a dwelling, and medicinal supplies.”

“Na kho te, bhagini, amhākaṁ dullabhā yadidaṁ cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānappaccayabhesajjaparikkhārā.
cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānappaccayabhesajjaparikkhārā api ca → cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānapaccayabhesajjaparikkhārā apica kho (sya-all)
“It’s not hard for us to get those requisites.
Api ca yo amhākaṁ dullabho taṁ dehī”ti.
taṁ → taṁ amhākaṁ (sya-all) | kho → potthakesu ayaṁ pāṭho natthi (sya-all: yu. ma.)
Give instead what’s hard for us to get.”

“Kiṁ, bhante”ti?“What’s that, venerable?”

“Methunadhamman”ti.“Sexual intercourse.”

“Attho, bhante”ti?“Is it wanted now?”

“Attho, bhaginī”ti.“Yes.”

“Ehi, bhante”ti,Saying, “Come,” ovarakaṁ pavisitvā sāṭakaṁ nikkhipitvā mañcake uttānā nipajji.she entered her bedroom, took off her wrap, and lay back on the bed. Atha kho āyasmā udāyī yena sā itthī tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā—
itthī → itthi (bj) | udāyī → udāyi (sya-all, pts) | itthī tenupasaṅkami → itthi ten upasaṁkami (pts)
Udāyī went up to her and spat out,
“ko imaṁ vasalaṁ duggandhaṁ āmasissatī”ti,“Who would touch this stinking wretch!” niṭṭhubhitvā pakkāmi.
niṭṭhubhitvā → nuṭṭhuhitvā (sya-all) | niṭṭhubhitvā → niṭṭhuhitvā (cck, pts)
and he left.

Atha kho sā itthī ujjhāyati khiyyati vipāceti—
itthī → itthi (bj, pts) | khiyyati → khīyati (bj, sya-all, pts)
That woman then complained and criticized him,
“alajjino ime samaṇā sakyaputtiyā dussīlā musāvādino.“These Sakyan monastics are shameless and immoral liars. Ime hi nāma dhammacārino samacārino brahmacārino saccavādino sīlavanto kalyāṇadhammā paṭijānissanti.
nāma → nāma samacārino (sya-all)
They claim to have integrity, to be celibate and of good conduct, to be truthful, moral, and good.
Natthi imesaṁ sāmaññaṁ natthi imesaṁ brahmaññaṁ, naṭṭhaṁ imesaṁ sāmaññaṁ naṭṭhaṁ imesaṁ brahmaññaṁ, kuto imesaṁ sāmaññaṁ kuto imesaṁ brahmaññaṁ,
brahmaññaṁ → brāhmaññaṁ (pts)
But they don’t have the good character of a monastic or a brahmin.
apagatā ime sāmaññā apagatā ime brahmaññā.
brahmaññā kathañhi → brāhmaññā kathaṁ hi (pts)
They’ve lost the plot!
Kathañhi nāma samaṇo udāyī maṁ sāmaṁ methunadhammaṁ yācitvā, ‘ko imaṁ vasalaṁ duggandhaṁ āmasissatī’ti niṭṭhubhitvā pakkamissati.
methunadhammaṁ → methunaṁ dhammaṁ (bj) | niṭṭhubhitvā → niṭṭhuhitvā (cck, pts) | udāyī → udāyi (pts)
How could the ascetic Udāyī ask for sexual intercourse from me, but then spit out, ‘Who would touch this stinking wretch!’ and leave?
Kiṁ me pāpakaṁ kiṁ me duggandhaṁ,What’s bad about me? How am I stinking? kassāhaṁ kena hāyāmī”ti?How am I inferior to anyone?”

Aññāpi itthiyo ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
khiyyanti → khīyanti (bj, pts)
Other women, too, criticized him
“alajjino ime samaṇā sakyaputtiyā dussīlā musāvādino …pe…
dussīlā musāvādino → (bj)
in the same way.
kathañhi nāma samaṇo udāyī imissā sāmaṁ methunadhammaṁ yācitvā, ‘ko imaṁ vasalaṁ duggandhaṁ āmasissatī’ti niṭṭhubhitvā pakkamissati.
methunadhammaṁ → methunaṁ dhammaṁ (bj) | niṭṭhubhitvā → niṭṭhuhitvā (cck, pts); nuṭṭhuhitvā (sya-all) | udāyī → udāyi (pts)
Kiṁ imissā pāpakaṁ kiṁ imissā duggandhaṁ, kassāyaṁ kena hāyatī”ti?
kassāyaṁ → kissāyaṁ (sya-all)

Assosuṁ kho bhikkhū tāsaṁ itthīnaṁ ujjhāyantīnaṁ khiyyantīnaṁ vipācentīnaṁ.
khiyyantīnaṁ → khīyantīnaṁ (bj, sya-all, pts)
The monks heard the criticism of those women,
Ye te bhikkhū appicchā …pe… te ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
khiyyanti → khīyanti (bj, sya-all, pts)
and the monks of few desires complained and criticized him,
“kathañhi nāma āyasmā udāyī mātugāmassa santike attakāmapāricariyāya vaṇṇaṁ bhāsissatī”ti.
udāyī → udāyi (sya-all, pts)
“How could Venerable Udāyī encourage a woman to satisfy his own desires?”

Atha kho te bhikkhū āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ.
Atha kho te bhikkhū āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā bhagavato → atha kho te bhikkhū bhagavato (si, sya-all, pts1ed) | āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā → (bj, sya-all, pts) | bhikkhū → atha kho te bhikkhu āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā bhagavato (bj: machasaṁ)
Those monks rebuked Udāyī in many ways and then told the Buddha.
Atha kho bhagavā etasmiṁ nidāne etasmiṁ pakaraṇe bhikkhusaṅghaṁ sannipātāpetvā āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ paṭipucchi—The Buddha had the Sangha gathered and questioned Udāyī: “saccaṁ kira tvaṁ, udāyi, mātugāmassa santike attakāmapāricariyāya vaṇṇaṁ bhāsasī”ti?
udāyi → udāyī (bj) | bhāsasīti → bhāsīti (pts)
“Is it true, Udāyī, that you did this?”

“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.“It’s true, sir.”

Vigarahi buddho bhagavā—The Buddha rebuked him, “ananucchavikaṁ, moghapurisa, ananulomikaṁ appatirūpaṁ assāmaṇakaṁ akappiyaṁ akaraṇīyaṁ.
ananucchavikaṁ → ananucchaviyaṁ (bj, pts) | appatirūpaṁ → appaṭirūpaṁ (sya-all, pts)
“It’s not suitable, foolish man, it’s not proper, it’s not worthy of a monastic, it’s not allowable, it’s not to be done.
Kathañhi nāma tvaṁ, moghapurisa, mātugāmassa santike attakāmapāricariyāya vaṇṇaṁ bhāsissasi.How could you do such a thing? Nanu mayā, moghapurisa, anekapariyāyena virāgāya dhammo desito no sarāgāya …pe…Haven’t I given many teachings for the sake of dispassion, not for the sake of passion … kāmapariḷāhānaṁ vūpasamo akkhāto?the stilling of the fevers of worldly pleasures? Netaṁ, moghapurisa, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…This will affect people’s confidence …” … evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—“And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this:

“Yo pana bhikkhu otiṇṇo vipariṇatena cittena mātugāmassa santike attakāmapāricariyāya vaṇṇaṁ bhāseyya— ‘etadaggaṁ, bhagini, pāricariyānaṁ yā mādisaṁ sīlavantaṁ kalyāṇadhammaṁ brahmacāriṁ etena dhammena paricareyyāti methunupasaṁhitena’, saṅghādiseso”ti.
methunupasaṁhitena → methunūpasaṁhitena (bj, sya-all)
‘If a monk, overcome by lust and with a distorted mind, encourages a woman to satisfy his own desires, saying, “Sister, she provides the highest service who in this way satisfies one like me, who is virtuous, celibate, and of good character,” and if it is a reference to sexual intercourse, he commits an offense entailing suspension.’”

Yo panātiA:

bhikkhūtiMonk:
…pe… ayaṁ imasmiṁ atthe adhippeto bhikkhūti.… The monk who has been given the full ordination by a unanimous Sangha through a legal procedure consisting of one motion and three announcements that is irreversible and fit to stand—this sort of monk is meant in this case.
Otiṇṇo nāmaOvercome by lust:

VipariṇatantiDistorted:
rattampi cittaṁ vipariṇataṁ, duṭṭhampi cittaṁ vipariṇataṁ, mūḷhampi cittaṁ vipariṇataṁ.a lustful mind is distorted; an angry mind is distorted; a confused mind is distorted. Api ca rattaṁ cittaṁ imasmiṁ atthe adhippetaṁ vipariṇatanti.But in this case “distorted” refers to the lustful mind.
Mātugāmo nāmaA woman:
manussitthī, na yakkhī, na petī, na tiracchānagatā. Viññū paṭibalā subhāsitadubbhāsitaṁ duṭṭhullāduṭṭhullaṁ ājānituṁ.
manussitthī → manussitthi (bj) | duṭṭhullāduṭṭhullaṁ → duṭṭhallāduṭṭhullaṁ (cck)

AttakāmantiHis own desires:
attano kāmaṁ attano hetuṁ attano adhippāyaṁ attano pāricariyaṁ.his own desires, for the sake of himself, aiming at himself, satisfying himself.
EtadaggantiThe highest:

YātiShe:

SaṅghādisesotiHe commits an offense entailing suspension:
…pe… tenapi vuccati “saṅghādiseso”ti.
