AraṇavibhaṅgasuttaThe Analysis of No Strife

Evaṁ me sutaṁ—
evaṁ me → evamme (th) | evaṁ → evam (pts)
So I have heard.
ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.At one time the Buddha was staying near Sāvatthī in Jeta’s Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s monastery. Tatra kho bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi:There the Buddha addressed the mendicants, “bhikkhavo”ti.
bhikkhavoti → bhikkhavo ti (pts)
“Mendicants!”

“Bhadante”ti te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṁ.
bhadanteti → bhadante ti (pts)
“Venerable sir,” they replied.
Bhagavā etadavoca:
etadavoca → etad avoca (pts)
The Buddha said this:

“araṇavibhaṅgaṁ vo, bhikkhave, desessāmi.
desessāmi → desissāmi (bj, sya-all, pts)
“Mendicants, I shall teach you the analysis of no strife.
Taṁ suṇātha, sādhukaṁ manasi karotha, bhāsissāmī”ti.
manasi karotha → manasikarotha (th, pts)
Listen and apply your mind well, I will speak.”

“Evaṁ, bhante”ti kho te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṁ.
evaṁ bhanteti → evambhanteti (th) | bhanteti → bhante ti (pts)
“Yes, sir,” they replied.
Bhagavā etadavoca:
etadavoca → etad avoca (pts)
The Buddha said this:

“Na kāmasukhamanuyuñjeyya hīnaṁ gammaṁ pothujjanikaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitaṁ, na ca attakilamathānuyogamanuyuñjeyya dukkhaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitaṁ.
anatthasaṁhitaṁ ete kho bhikkhave → anatthasañhitaṁ etete (sya-all) | attakilamathānuyogamanuyuñjeyya → attakilamathānuyogaṁ anuyuñjeyya (bjt, pts) | kāmasukhamanuyuñjeyya → kāmasukham anuyuñjeyya (pts)
“Don’t indulge in sensual pleasure, which is low, crude, ordinary, ignoble, and pointless. And don’t indulge in self-mortification, which is painful, ignoble, and pointless.
Ete kho, bhikkhave, ubho ante anupagamma majjhimā paṭipadā tathāgatena abhisambuddhā, cakkhukaraṇī ñāṇakaraṇī upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṁvattati.
kho → te (bj) | kho bhikkhave → te (pts) | te → ete kho (bj: machasaṁ, sīmu); etetveva (bj: katthaci) | bhikkhave → ete kho (cck: sī.); ete te (cck: syā. kaṁ. pī.) | te → So Si; Sky ete tveva here and infra. (pts note) | ete kho bhikkhave → etete (th)
Avoiding these two extremes, the Realized One understood the middle way of practice, which gives vision and knowledge, and leads to peace, direct knowledge, awakening, and extinguishment.
Ussādanañca jaññā, apasādanañca jaññā;
ussādanañca → ussādanañ ca (pts) | apasādanañca → apasādanañ ca (pts)
Know what it means to flatter and to rebuke.
ussādanañca ñatvā apasādanañca ñatvā nevussādeyya, na apasādeyya, dhammameva deseyya.
apasādeyya → nāpasādeyya (bj) | na apasādeyya → nāpasādeyya (bj) | apasādeyya → nāpasādeyya (cck: sī.) | ussādanañca → ussādanañ ca (pts) | apasādanañca → apasādanañ ca (pts) | nevussādeyya → n ev ussādeyya (pts) | dhammameva → dhammam eva (pts)
Knowing these, avoid them, and just teach Dhamma.
Sukhavinicchayaṁ jaññā;Know how to evaluate different kinds of pleasure. sukhavinicchayaṁ ñatvā ajjhattaṁ sukhamanuyuñjeyya.
sukhamanuyuñjeyya → sukham anuyuñjeyya (pts)
Knowing this, pursue inner pleasure.
Rahovādaṁ na bhāseyya, sammukhā na khīṇaṁ bhaṇe.
na khīṇaṁ → nātikhīṇaṁ (sya-all, km, mr) | khīṇaṁ → nātikhīṇaṁ (bj: syā) | khīṇaṁ → nātikhīṇaṁ (cck: syā. kaṁ. ka.) | nātikhīṇaṁ → na khīṇaṁ (sya-all: sī.) | khīṇaṁ → So Sky Bu; Si nātikhīṇaṁ with note that Sinhalese reading is as in text. (pts note) | rahovādaṁ → raho vādaṁ (th, pts)
Don’t talk behind people’s backs, and don’t speak sharply in their presence.
Ataramānova bhāseyya, no taramāno.
ataramānova → ataramāno va (bjt, pts)
Don’t speak hurriedly.
Janapadaniruttiṁ nābhiniveseyya, samaññaṁ nātidhāveyyāti—
Janapadaniruttiṁ → Si janapathano. (pts note)
Don’t insist on popular definitions and don’t overstep normal labels.
ayamuddeso araṇavibhaṅgassa.
ayamuddeso → ayam uddeso (pts)
This is the summary recital for the analysis of no strife.

‘Na kāmasukhamanuyuñjeyya hīnaṁ gammaṁ pothujjanikaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitaṁ, na ca attakilamathānuyogamanuyuñjeyya dukkhaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitan’ti—

‘Don’t indulge in sensual pleasure, which is low, crude, ordinary, ignoble, and pointless. And don’t indulge in self-mortification, which is painful, ignoble, and pointless.’
iti kho panetaṁ vuttaṁ; Kiñcetaṁ paṭicca vuttaṁ?
kho panetaṁ → pan etaṁ (pts) | kiñcetaṁ → kiñ etaṁ (pts)
That’s what I said, but why did I say it?
Yo kāmapaṭisandhisukhino somanassānuyogo hīno gammo pothujjaniko anariyo anatthasaṁhito, sadukkho eso dhammo saupaghāto saupāyāso sapariḷāho; micchāpaṭipadā.
pothujjaniko → pothujjanike (sya-all) | kāmapaṭisandhisukhino → kāmapaṭisandhisukhiṇo (pts) | saupaghāto → sa vighāto (bj: katthaci) | sa-upaghāto → So Si Bu and Sky eventually; Sky savighāto (and avighāto) generally. (pts note) | anatthasaṁhito → anatthasañhito (th) | saupaghāto saupāyāso → sa-upaghāto sa-upāyāso (pts)
Indulging in the happiness of the pleasure linked to sensuality is low, crude, ordinary, ignoble, and pointless. It is a principle beset by pain, harm, stress, and fever, and it is the wrong way.
Yo kāmapaṭisandhisukhino somanassānuyogaṁ ananuyogo hīnaṁ gammaṁ pothujjanikaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitaṁ, adukkho eso dhammo anupaghāto anupāyāso apariḷāho; sammāpaṭipadā.
anatthasaṁhitaṁ → anatthasañhitaṁ (th)
Breaking off such indulgence is a principle free of pain, harm, stress, and fever, and it is the right way.
Yo attakilamathānuyogo dukkho anariyo anatthasaṁhito, sadukkho eso dhammo saupaghāto saupāyāso sapariḷāho; micchāpaṭipadā.
anatthasaṁhito → anatthasañhito (th) | saupaghāto saupāyāso → sa-upaghāto sa-upāyāso (pts)
Indulging in self-mortification is painful, ignoble, and pointless. It is a principle beset by pain, harm, stress, and fever, and it is the wrong way.
Yo attakilamathānuyogaṁ ananuyogo dukkhaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitaṁ, adukkho eso dhammo anupaghāto anupāyāso apariḷāho; sammāpaṭipadā.
attakilamathānuyogaṁ → attakilamathānuyogo (pts) | anatthasaṁhitaṁ → anatthadukkhaṁ (pts) | anatthasaṁhitaṁ → anatthasañhitaṁ (th)
Breaking off such indulgence is a principle free of pain, harm, stress, and fever, and it is the right way.
‘Na kāmasukhamanuyuñjeyya hīnaṁ gammaṁ pothujjanikaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitaṁ, na ca attakilamathānuyogaṁ anuyuñjeyya dukkhaṁ anariyaṁ anatthasaṁhitan’ti—

‘Don’t indulge in sensual pleasure, which is low, crude, ordinary, ignoble, and pointless. And don’t indulge in self-mortification, which is painful, ignoble, and pointless.’
iti yaṁ taṁ vuttaṁ idametaṁ paṭicca vuttaṁ.
yaṁ taṁ → yantaṁ (th) | yaṁ → yan (pts) | idametaṁ → idam etaṁ (pts)
That’s what I said, and this is why I said it.

‘Ete kho ubho ante anupagamma majjhimā paṭipadā tathāgatena abhisambuddhā, cakkhukaraṇī ñāṇakaraṇī upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṁvattatī’ti—
ete kho → etete (sya-all) | kho → te (pts)
‘Avoiding these two extremes, the Realized One understood the middle way of practice, which gives vision and knowledge, and leads to peace, direct knowledge, awakening, and extinguishment.’
iti kho panetaṁ vuttaṁ. Kiñcetaṁ paṭicca vuttaṁ?
panetaṁ → pan etaṁ (pts) | kiñcetaṁ → kiñ etaṁ (pts)
That’s what I said, but why did I say it?
Ayameva ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo, seyyathidaṁ—
seyyathidaṁ → seyyathīdaṁ (th, pts) | ayameva → ayam eva (pts)
It is simply this noble eightfold path, that is:
sammādiṭṭhi, sammāsaṅkappo, sammāvācā, sammākammanto, sammāājīvo, sammāvāyāmo, sammāsati, sammāsamādhi.
sammāsaṅkappo → sammāsaṁkappo (pts) | sammāājīvo → sammā-ājīvo (pts)
right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion.
‘Ete kho ubho ante anupagamma majjhimā paṭipadā tathāgatena abhisambuddhā, cakkhukaraṇī ñāṇakaraṇī upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṁvattatī’ti—

iti → saṁvattati iti (bj: sīmu) | yaṁ taṁ → yantaṁ (th) | yaṁ → yan (pts) | idametaṁ → idam etaṁ (pts)
That’s what I said, and this is why I said it.

‘Ussādanañca jaññā, apasādanañca jaññā;

‘Know what it means to flatter and to rebuke.

Knowing these, avoid them, and just teach Dhamma.’
iti kho panetaṁ vuttaṁ. Kiñcetaṁ paṭicca vuttaṁ?

That’s what I said, but why did I say it?

Kathañca, bhikkhave, ussādanā ca hoti apasādanā ca, no ca dhammadesanā?
ca → ca hoti (pts) | kathañca → kathaṁ ca (bjt) | kathañca → kathañ ca (pts)
And how is there flattering and rebuking without teaching Dhamma?
