BhaddālisuttaWith Bhaddāli

Evaṁ me sutaṁ—
evaṁ me → evamme (th) | evaṁ me → evam-me (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:

“Ahaṁ kho, bhikkhave, ekāsanabhojanaṁ bhuñjāmi;“Mendicants, I eat my food in one sitting per day. ekāsanabhojanaṁ kho, ahaṁ, bhikkhave, bhuñjamāno appābādhatañca sañjānāmi appātaṅkatañca lahuṭṭhānañca balañca phāsuvihārañca.
appābādhatañca → appābādhatañ-ca (pts) | appātaṅkatañca lahuṭṭhānañca balañca phāsuvihārañca → appātaṅkatañ-ca lahuṭṭhānañ-ca balañ-ca phāsuvihārañ-ca (pts)
Doing so, I find that I’m healthy and well, nimble, strong, and living comfortably.
Etha, tumhepi, bhikkhave, ekāsanabhojanaṁ bhuñjatha;
tumhepi → tumhe pi (pts)
You too should eat your food in one sitting per day.
ekāsanabhojanaṁ kho, bhikkhave, tumhepi bhuñjamānā appābādhatañca sañjānissatha appātaṅkatañca lahuṭṭhānañca balañca phāsuvihārañcā”ti.
sañjānissatha → sañjanissatha (pts)
Doing so, you’ll find that you’re healthy and well, nimble, strong, and living comfortably.”

Evaṁ vutte, āyasmā bhaddāli bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
etadavoca → etad-avoca (pts)
When he said this, Venerable Bhaddāli said to the Buddha,
“ahaṁ kho, bhante, na ussahāmi ekāsanabhojanaṁ bhuñjituṁ;“Sir, I’m not going to attempt to eat my food in one sitting per day. ekāsanabhojanañhi me, bhante, bhuñjato siyā kukkuccaṁ, siyā vippaṭisāro”ti.
vippaṭisāroti → vippatisāro ti (pts) | ekāsanabhojanañhi → ekāsanabhojanaṁ hi (bjt, pts)
For when eating once a day I might feel remorse and regret.”

“Tena hi tvaṁ, bhaddāli, yattha nimantito assasi tattha ekadesaṁ bhuñjitvā ekadesaṁ nīharitvāpi bhuñjeyyāsi.
bhuñjeyyāsi → paribhuñjeyyāsi (sya-all) | tena hi → tenahi (th) | nīharitvāpi → nīharitvā pi (pts)
“Well then, Bhaddāli, eat one part of the meal in the place where you’re invited, and bring the rest back to eat.
Evampi kho tvaṁ, bhaddāli, bhuñjamāno ekāsano yāpessasī”ti.
bhuñjamāno ekāsano yāpessasī”ti → bhuñjamāno yāpessasīti (bj, sya-all, km, pts1ed) | ekāsano → (bj, sya-all, pts) | bhuñjamāno → bhuñjamāno ekāsano (bj: machasaṁ) | yāpessasī’’ti → bhuñjamāno yāpessasīti (cck: sī. syā. kaṁ. pī.) | evampi → evam-pi (pts)
Eating this way, too, you will sustain yourself.”

“Evampi kho ahaṁ, bhante, na ussahāmi bhuñjituṁ;“Sir, I’m not going to attempt to eat that way, either. evampi hi me, bhante, bhuñjato siyā kukkuccaṁ, siyā vippaṭisāro”ti.
evampi → evam-pi (pts) | vippaṭisāroti → vippaṭisāro ti (pts)
For when eating that way I might also feel remorse and regret.”
Atha kho āyasmā bhaddāli bhagavatā sikkhāpade paññāpiyamāne bhikkhusaṅghe sikkhaṁ samādiyamāne anussāhaṁ pavedesi.
paññāpiyamāne → paññāpayamāne (bj: sīmu8) | bhikkhusaṅghe → bhikkhusaṁghe (ms2005)
Then, as this rule was being laid down by the Buddha and the Saṅgha was undertaking it, Bhaddāli announced he would not attempt to keep it.
Atha kho āyasmā bhaddāli sabbaṁ taṁ temāsaṁ na bhagavato sammukhībhāvaṁ adāsi, yathā taṁ satthusāsane sikkhāya aparipūrakārī.
aparipūrakārī → aparipūrikārītipi pāṭho (sya-all note) | sabbaṁ taṁ → sabbantaṁ (bjt, th) | yathā taṁ → yathātaṁ (bjt) | yathā taṁ satthusāsane → yathātaṁ satthu sāsane (th) | sabbaṁ taṁ → sabban-taṁ (pts)
Then for the whole of that three months Bhaddāli would not see the Buddha face to face, as happens when someone doesn’t fulfill the training according to the Teacher’s instructions.

Tena kho pana samayena sambahulā bhikkhū bhagavato cīvarakammaṁ karonti—At that time several mendicants were making a robe for the Buddha, thinking that niṭṭhitacīvaro bhagavā temāsaccayena cārikaṁ pakkamissatīti.when his robe was finished and the three months of the rains residence had passed the Buddha would set out wandering.

Atha kho āyasmā bhaddāli yena te bhikkhū tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā tehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ sammodi.
tenupasaṅkami → ten upasaṅkami (pts)
Then Bhaddāli went up to those mendicants, and exchanged greetings with them.
Sammodanīyaṁ kathaṁ sāraṇīyaṁ vītisāretvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinnaṁ kho āyasmantaṁ bhaddāliṁ te bhikkhū etadavocuṁ:
sāraṇīyaṁ → sārāṇīyaṁ (bj, sya-all, pts) | etadavocuṁ → etadavocaṁ (pts) | etadavocuṁ → etad-avocaṁ (pts)
When the greetings and polite conversation were over, he sat down to one side. The mendicants said to Bhaddāli,
“idaṁ kho, āvuso bhaddāli, bhagavato cīvarakammaṁ karīyati.
karīyati → karaṇīyaṁ (mr) | karīyati → karaṇīyaṁ (cck: ka.)
“Reverend Bhaddāli, this robe is being made for the Buddha.
Niṭṭhitacīvaro bhagavā temāsaccayena cārikaṁ pakkamissati.
pakkamissati → pakkamissatīti (bj, sya-all) | pakkamissati iṅghāvuso → pakkamissatīti iṅgh āvuso (pts)
When it’s finished and the three months of the rains residence have passed the Buddha will set out wandering.
Iṅghāvuso bhaddāli, etaṁ dosakaṁ sādhukaṁ manasi karohi, mā te pacchā dukkarataraṁ ahosī”ti.
dosakaṁ → desakaṁ (bj, pts); desaṁ (sya-all) | desakaṁ → dosakaṁ (bj: sīmu8, machasaṁ); desaṁ (bj: syā) | manasi karohi → manasikarohi (bjt, th, pts) | iṅghāvuso → iṅgh āvuso (pts)
Come on, Bhaddāli, learn your lesson. Don’t make it hard for yourself later on.”

“Evamāvuso”ti kho āyasmā bhaddāli tesaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ paṭissutvā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā bhaddāli bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
evamāvusoti → evam-āvuso ti (pts) | tenupasaṅkami → ten upasaṅkami (pts) | etadavoca → etad-avoca (pts)
“Yes, reverends,” Bhaddāli replied. He went to the Buddha, bowed, sat down to one side, and said to him,
“accayo maṁ, bhante, accagamā yathābālaṁ yathāmūḷhaṁ yathāakusalaṁ, yohaṁ bhagavatā sikkhāpade paññāpiyamāne bhikkhusaṅghe sikkhaṁ samādiyamāne anussāhaṁ pavedesiṁ.
bhikkhusaṅghe → bhikkhusaṁghe (ms2005) | yathābālaṁ yathāmūḷhaṁ yathāakusalaṁ yohaṁ → yathā bālaṁ yathā mūḷhaṁ yathā akusalaṁ yo haṁ (pts)
“I made a mistake, sir. It was foolish, stupid, and unskillful of me that, as this rule was being laid down by the Buddha and the Saṅgha was undertaking it, I announced I would not attempt to keep it.
Tassa me, bhante, bhagavā accayaṁ accayato paṭiggaṇhātu āyatiṁ saṁvarāyā”ti.
paṭiggaṇhātu → patigaṇhātu (bj, pts)
Please, sir, accept my mistake for what it is, so I will restrain myself in future.”

“Taggha tvaṁ, bhaddāli, accayo accagamā yathābālaṁ yathāmūḷhaṁ yathāakusalaṁ, yaṁ tvaṁ mayā sikkhāpade paññāpiyamāne bhikkhusaṅghe sikkhaṁ samādiyamāne anussāhaṁ pavedesi.

“Indeed, Bhaddāli, you made a mistake. It was foolish, stupid, and unskillful of you that, as this rule was being laid down by the Buddha and the Saṅgha was undertaking it, you announced you would not attempt to keep it.

But since you have recognized your mistake for what it is, and have dealt with it properly, I accept it.
Vuddhihesā, bhaddāli, ariyassa vinaye yo accayaṁ accayato disvā yathādhammaṁ paṭikaroti, āyatiṁ saṁvaraṁ āpajjati.

Idha, bhaddāli, ekacco bhikkhu satthusāsane sikkhāya aparipūrakārī hoti.

Bhaddāli, take a mendicant who doesn’t fulfill the training according to the Teacher’s instructions.
Tassa evaṁ hoti:They think, ‘yannūnāhaṁ vivittaṁ senāsanaṁ bhajeyyaṁ araññaṁ rukkhamūlaṁ pabbataṁ kandaraṁ giriguhaṁ susānaṁ vanapatthaṁ abbhokāsaṁ palālapuñjaṁ.

‘Why don’t I frequent a secluded lodging—a wilderness, the root of a tree, a hill, a ravine, a mountain cave, a charnel ground, a forest, the open air, a heap of straw.

While they’re living withdrawn, they’re reprimanded by the Teacher, by sensible spiritual companions after examination, by deities, and by themselves.

Being reprimanded in this way, they don’t realize any superhuman distinction in knowledge and vision worthy of the noble ones.
Taṁ kissa hetu?Why is that? Evañhi taṁ, bhaddāli, hoti yathā taṁ satthusāsane sikkhāya aparipūrakārissa.

Because that’s how it is when someone doesn’t fulfill the training according to the Teacher’s instructions.

Idha pana, bhaddāli, ekacco bhikkhu satthusāsane sikkhāya paripūrakārī hoti.
satthusāsane → satthu sāsane (th)
But take a mendicant who does fulfill the training according to the Teacher’s instructions.

Quite secluded from sensual pleasures, secluded from unskillful qualities, they enter and remain in the first absorption, which has the rapture and bliss born of seclusion, while placing the mind and keeping it connected.

Furthermore, as the placing of the mind and keeping it connected are stilled, a mendicant enters and remains in the second absorption, which has the rapture and bliss born of immersion, with internal clarity and mind at one, without placing the mind and keeping it connected.

Furthermore, with the fading away of rapture, a mendicant enters and remains in the third absorption, where they meditate with equanimity, mindful and aware, experiencing for themselves the bliss of which the noble ones declare, ‘Equanimous and mindful, one meditates in bliss.’
Taṁ kissa hetu?Why is that? Evañhi taṁ, bhaddāli, hoti yathā taṁ satthusāsane sikkhāya paripūrakārissa.

Furthermore, with the giving up of pleasure and pain and the disappearance of former happiness and sadness, a mendicant enters and remains in the fourth absorption, without pleasure or pain, with pure equanimity and mindfulness.
Taṁ kissa hetu?Why is that? Evañhi taṁ, bhaddāli, hoti yathā taṁ satthusāsane sikkhāya paripūrakārissa.

When their mind has become immersed in samādhi like this—purified, bright, flawless, rid of corruptions, pliable, workable, steady, and imperturbable—they extend it toward recollection of past lives.

Tatra, bhaddāli, bhikkhūnaṁ evaṁ hoti:In such a case, the monks say: ‘ayaṁ kho, āvuso, bhikkhu saddhāmattakena vahati pemamattakena.‘Reverends, this monk gets by with mere faith and fondness. Sace mayaṁ imaṁ bhikkhuṁ pasayha pasayha kāraṇaṁ karissāma—
pasayha pasayha → pavayha pavayha (bj, sya-all) | karissāma → kāressāma (sya-all) | pasayha pasayha kāraṇaṁ → pavayha pavayha kāranaṁ (pts) | pavayha → pasayha pasayha (bj: machasaṁ)
Suppose we punish him, repeatedly pressuring him—
mā yampissa taṁ saddhāmattakaṁ pemamattakaṁ tamhāpi parihāyī’ti.
mā yampissa → māyampissa (bjt) | yampissa → yaṁ pi ssa (pts) | tamhāpi → tamhā pi (pts)
no, let him not lose what little faith and love he has!’
Ayaṁ kho, bhaddāli, hetu ayaṁ paccayo yena midhekaccaṁ bhikkhuṁ pasayha pasayha kāraṇaṁ karonti.
pasayha pasayha → pavayha pavayha (bj, sya-all, pts) | karonti → kārenti (sya-all) | yena midhekaccaṁ → yenamidhekaccaṁ (bjt, th) | yena midhekaccaṁ → yena-m-idh ekaccaṁ (pts)
This is the cause, this is the reason why they punish some monk, repeatedly pressuring him.
Ayaṁ pana, bhaddāli, hetu ayaṁ paccayo, yena midhekaccaṁ bhikkhuṁ no tathā pasayha pasayha kāraṇaṁ karontī”ti.
pasayha pasayha → pavayha pavayha (bj, sya-all, pts) | no → na (sya-all) | karontīti → kārentīti (sya-all) | yena midhekaccaṁ → yenamidhekaccaṁ (bjt, th) | yena midhekaccaṁ → yena-m idh ekaccaṁ (pts)
And this is the cause, this is the reason why they don’t similarly punish another monk, repeatedly pressuring him.”

“Ko nu kho, bhante, hetu, ko paccayo yena pubbe appatarāni ceva sikkhāpadāni ahesuṁ bahutarā ca bhikkhū aññāya saṇṭhahiṁsu?
ceva → eva (pts)
“What is the cause, sir, what is the reason why there used to be fewer training rules but more enlightened mendicants?
Ko pana, bhante, hetu, ko paccayo yena etarahi bahutarāni ceva sikkhāpadāni honti appatarā ca bhikkhū aññāya saṇṭhahantī”ti?
yena etarahi → yenetarahi (bj, sya-all) | honti → ahesuṁ (sya-all) | yena → yen (pts) | ceva → eva (pts)
And what is the cause, what is the reason why these days there are more training rules and fewer enlightened mendicants?”

“Evametaṁ, bhaddāli, hoti sattesu hāyamānesu, saddhamme antaradhāyamāne, bahutarāni ceva sikkhāpadāni honti appatarā ca bhikkhū aññāya saṇṭhahantīti.
evametaṁ → evaṁ hetaṁ (bj, sya-all) | saṇṭhahantīti → saṇṭhahanti (bj, sya-all, pts) | evametaṁ → evañhetaṁ (th) | evametaṁ → evaṁ h etaṁ (pts) | ceva → eva (pts)
“That’s how it is, Bhaddāli. When sentient beings are in decline and the true teaching is disappearing there are more training rules and fewer enlightened mendicants.
Na tāva, bhaddāli, satthā sāvakānaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññāpeti yāva na idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā dhammā saṅghe pātubhavanti.
āsavaṭṭhānīyā → āsavaṭṭhāniyā (bjt) | saṅghe → saṁghe (ms2005) | idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā → idh ekacce āsavaṭṭhāniyā (pts)
The Teacher does not lay down training rules for disciples as long as certain defiling influences have not appeared in the Saṅgha.
Yato ca kho, bhaddāli, idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā dhammā saṅghe pātubhavanti, atha satthā sāvakānaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññāpeti tesaṁyeva āsavaṭṭhānīyānaṁ dhammānaṁ paṭighātāya.
āsavaṭṭhānīyā → āsavaṭṭhāniyā (bjt) | tesaṁyeva āsavaṭṭhānīyānaṁ → tesaṁ yeva āsavaṭṭhāniyānaṁ (bjt, pts) | saṅghe → saṁghe (ms2005) | idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā → idh ekacce āsavaṭṭhāniyā (pts)
But when such defiling influences appear in the Saṅgha, the Teacher lays down training rules for disciples to protect against them.

Na tāva, bhaddāli, idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā dhammā saṅghe pātubhavanti yāva na saṅgho mahattaṁ patto hoti.
āsavaṭṭhānīyā → āsavaṭṭhāniyā (bjt) | saṅghe → saṁghe (ms2005) | saṅgho → saṁgho (ms2005) | idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā → idh ekacce āsavaṭṭhāniyā (pts)
And they don’t appear until the Saṅgha has attained a great size,
Yato ca kho, bhaddāli, saṅgho mahattaṁ patto hoti, atha idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā dhammā saṅghe pātubhavanti.
āsavaṭṭhānīyā → āsavaṭṭhāniyā (bjt) | saṅgho → saṁgho (ms2005) | saṅghe → saṁghe (ms2005) | idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā → idh ekacce āsavaṭṭhāniyā (pts)
Atha satthā sāvakānaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññāpeti tesaṁyeva āsavaṭṭhānīyānaṁ dhammānaṁ paṭighātāya.
tesaṁyeva āsavaṭṭhānīyānaṁ → tesaṁ yeva āsavaṭṭhāniyānaṁ (bjt, pts)
Na tāva, bhaddāli, idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā dhammā saṅghe pātubhavanti yāva na saṅgho lābhaggaṁ patto hoti, yasaggaṁ patto hoti, bāhusaccaṁ patto hoti, rattaññutaṁ patto hoti.
rattaññutaṁ → rattaññūtaṁ (pts) | āsavaṭṭhānīyā → āsavaṭṭhāniyā (bjt) | saṅghe → saṁghe (ms2005) | saṅgho → saṁgho (ms2005) | idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā → idh ekacce āsavaṭṭhāniyā (pts)
an abundance of material support and fame, learning, and seniority.
Yato ca kho, bhaddāli, saṅgho rattaññutaṁ patto hoti, atha idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā dhammā saṅghe pātubhavanti, atha satthā sāvakānaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññāpeti tesaṁyeva āsavaṭṭhānīyānaṁ dhammānaṁ paṭighātāya.
rattaññutaṁ → rattaññūtaṁ (pts) | āsavaṭṭhānīyā → āsavaṭṭhāniyā (bjt) | tesaṁyeva āsavaṭṭhānīyānaṁ → tesaṁ yeva āsavaṭṭhāniyānaṁ (bjt, pts) | saṅgho → saṁgho (ms2005) | saṅghe → saṁghe (ms2005) | idhekacce āsavaṭṭhānīyā → idh ekacce āsavaṭṭhāniyā (pts)
But when the Saṅgha has attained these things, then such defiling influences appear in the Saṅgha, and the Teacher lays down training rules for disciples to protect against them.

Appakā kho tumhe, bhaddāli, tena samayena ahuvattha yadā vo ahaṁ ājānīyasusūpamaṁ dhammapariyāyaṁ desesiṁ.There were only a few of you there at the time when I taught the exposition on the simile of the thoroughbred colt. Taṁ sarasi bhaddālī”ti?
sarasi → sarasi tvaṁ (bj, sya1ed, sya2ed, pts1ed); sarasi taṁ (?) | taṁ → (bj, pts) | sarasi → sarasi tvaṁ (sya-all, pts) | tvaṁ → taṁ sarasi (bj: machasaṁ, syā) | sarasi → sarasi tvaṁ (cck: sī. pī.); sarasi taṁ (cck: ?)
Do you remember that, Bhaddāli?”

“No hetaṁ, bhante”.
hetaṁ → h etaṁ (pts)
“No, sir.”

“Tatra, bhaddāli, kaṁ hetuṁ paccesī”ti?
kaṁ → kiṁ (sya-all)
“What do you believe the reason for that is?”

“So hi nūnāhaṁ, bhante, dīgharattaṁ satthusāsane sikkhāya aparipūrakārī ahosin”ti.
satthusāsane → satthu sāsane (th) | ahosinti → ahosin-ti (pts)
“Sir, it’s surely because for a long time now I haven’t fulfilled the training according to the Teacher’s instructions.”

“Na kho, bhaddāli, eseva hetu, esa paccayo.
eseva → es eva (pts)
“That’s not the only reason, Bhaddāli.
Api ca me tvaṁ, bhaddāli, dīgharattaṁ cetasā cetoparicca vidito:
cetoparicca → ceto paricca (bjt, th, pts) | api ca → apica (th)
Rather, for a long time I have encompassed your mind and known:
‘na cāyaṁ moghapuriso mayā dhamme desiyamāne aṭṭhiṁ katvā manasi katvā sabbacetaso samannāharitvā ohitasoto dhammaṁ suṇātī’ti.
sabbacetaso → sabbaṁ cetaso (mr) | aṭṭhiṁ katvā manasi katvā → aṭṭhikatvā manasikatvā (bj, sya-all, pts) | na cāyaṁ → navāyaṁ (sya-all) | cāyaṁ → vāyaṁ (pts) | nacāyaṁ → na cāyaṁ (bj: PTS) | aṭṭhikatvā → aṭṭhiṁ katvā (bj: machasaṁ) | sabbacetaso → sabbaṁ cetaso (cck: ka.)
‘While I’m teaching, this futile man doesn’t pay attention, apply the mind, concentrate wholeheartedly, or actively listen to the teaching.’
Api ca te ahaṁ, bhaddāli, ājānīyasusūpamaṁ dhammapariyāyaṁ desessāmi.
desessāmi → desissāmi (bj, sya-all, pts) | api ca → apica (th)
Still, Bhaddāli, I shall teach the exposition on the simile of the thoroughbred colt.
Taṁ suṇāhi, sādhukaṁ manasi karohi; bhāsissāmī”ti.
manasi karohi → manasikarohi (bjt, th)
Listen and apply your mind well, I will speak.”

“Evaṁ, bhante”ti kho āyasmā bhaddāli bhagavato paccassosi.
bhanteti → bhante ti (pts)
“Yes, sir,” Bhaddāli replied.
Bhagavā etadavoca:
etadavoca → etad-avoca (pts)
The Buddha said this:

“Seyyathāpi, bhaddāli, dakkho assadamako bhadraṁ assājānīyaṁ labhitvā paṭhameneva mukhādhāne kāraṇaṁ kāreti.
seyyathāpi → seyyathā pi (pts) | paṭhameneva → paṭhamen eva (pts)
“Suppose a deft horse trainer were to obtain a fine thoroughbred. First of all he’d make it get used to wearing the bit.
Tassa mukhādhāne kāraṇaṁ kāriyamānassa hontiyeva visūkāyitāni visevitāni vipphanditāni kānici kānici, yathā taṁ akāritapubbaṁ kāraṇaṁ kāriyamānassa.
yathā taṁ → yathātaṁ (th) | hontiyeva → honti yeva (pts)
Because it has not done this before, it still resorts to some twists, ducks, and dodges.
So abhiṇhakāraṇā anupubbakāraṇā tasmiṁ ṭhāne parinibbāyati.But with regular and gradual practice its bad behavior is extinguished.

Yato kho, bhaddāli, bhadro assājānīyo abhiṇhakāraṇā anupubbakāraṇā tasmiṁ ṭhāne parinibbuto hoti, tamenaṁ assadamako uttari kāraṇaṁ kāreti yugādhāne.
uttari → uttariṁ (bj, sya-all, pts) | uttariṁ → uttari (bj: machasaṁ) | tamenaṁ → tam-enaṁ (pts)
When it has done this, the horse trainer next makes it get used to wearing the harness.
Tassa yugādhāne kāraṇaṁ kāriyamānassa hontiyeva visūkāyitāni visevitāni vipphanditāni kānici kānici, yathā taṁ akāritapubbaṁ kāraṇaṁ kāriyamānassa.
yathā taṁ → yathātaṁ (th) | hontiyeva → honti yeva (pts)
Because it has not done this before, it still resorts to some twists, ducks, and dodges.
So abhiṇhakāraṇā anupubbakāraṇā tasmiṁ ṭhāne parinibbāyati.But with regular and gradual practice its bad behavior is extinguished.

Yato kho, bhaddāli, bhadro assājānīyo abhiṇhakāraṇā anupubbakāraṇā tasmiṁ ṭhāne parinibbuto hoti, tamenaṁ assadamako uttari kāraṇaṁ kāreti anukkame maṇḍale khurakāse dhāve davatte rājaguṇe rājavaṁse uttame jave uttame haye uttame sākhalye.
davatte → ravatthe (si, cck, sya1ed, km, pts1ed); varatthe (sya2ed) | khurakāse → khurakāye (si, pts1ed) | uttari → uttariṁ (bj, sya-all, pts) | davatte → ravatthe (bj, pts); varatthe (sya-all) | khurakāse → khurakāye (pts) | uttariṁ → uttari (bj: machasaṁ) | khurakāse → khurakāye (bj: sīmu8, PTS) | dhāve → dhāvane (bj: __pu__) | ravatthe → davatthe (bj: sīmu8, machasaṁ) | khurakāse → khurakāye (cck: sī. pī.) | davatte → ravatthe (cck: sī. syā. kaṁ. pī.)
When it has done this, the horse trainer next makes it get used to walking in procession, circling, prancing, galloping, charging, the protocols and customs of court, and in the very best speed, fleetness, and camaraderie.
Tassa uttame jave uttame haye uttame sākhalye kāraṇaṁ kāriyamānassa hontiyeva visūkāyitāni visevitāni vipphanditāni kānici kānici, yathā taṁ akāritapubbaṁ kāraṇaṁ kāriyamānassa.
visevitāni → visevitānī (pts) | yathā taṁ → yathātaṁ (th) | hontiyeva → honti yeva (pts)
Because it has not done this before, it still resorts to some twists, ducks, and dodges.
So abhiṇhakāraṇā anupubbakāraṇā tasmiṁ ṭhāne parinibbāyati.But with regular and gradual practice its bad behavior is extinguished.

Yato kho, bhaddāli, bhadro assājānīyo abhiṇhakāraṇā anupubbakāraṇā tasmiṁ ṭhāne parinibbuto hoti, tamenaṁ assadamako uttari vaṇṇiyañca pāṇiyañca anuppavecchati.
pāṇiyañca → valiyañca (bj, pts1ed); baliyaṁ ca (sya-all, km) | yato → yato ca (bj, pts) | uttari → uttariṁ (bj, pts) | pāṇiyañca → valiyañca (pts) | uttariṁ → uttari (bj: machasaṁ) | valiyañca → pāṇiyañca (bj: machasaṁ) | pāṇiyañca → valiyañca (cck: sī. pī.); baliyañca (cck: syā. kaṁ.) | uttari vaṇṇiyañca pāṇiyañca → uttariṁ vaṇṇiyaṁ ca baliyaṁ ca (th) | tamenaṁ → tam-enaṁ (pts) | uttari vaṇṇiyañca pāṇiyañca → uttariṁ vaṇṇiyañ-ca valiyañ-ca (pts)
When it has done this, the horse trainer next rewards it with a grooming and a rub down.
Imehi kho, bhaddāli, dasahaṅgehi samannāgato bhadro assājānīyo rājāraho hoti rājabhoggo rañño aṅganteva saṅkhyaṁ gacchati.
saṅkhyaṁ → saṅkhaṁ (bj) | aṅganteva → aṅgantveva (sya-all) | aṅganteva saṅkhyaṁ → aṅgant eva saṅkhaṁ (pts) | dasahaṅgehi → dasah aṅgehi (pts) | aṅganteva saṅkhyaṁ → aṅgan-t eva saṅkhaṁ (pts)
A fine royal thoroughbred with these ten factors is worthy of a king, fit to serve a king, and reckoned as a factor of kingship.

Evameva kho, bhaddāli, dasahi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu āhuneyyo hoti pāhuneyyo dakkhiṇeyyo añjalikaraṇīyo anuttaraṁ puññakkhettaṁ lokassa.
lokassa → lokassāti (sya-all) | dakkhiṇeyyo → dakkhiṇeyye (pts) | evameva → evam-eva (pts)
In the same way, a mendicant with ten qualities is worthy of offerings dedicated to the gods, worthy of hospitality, worthy of a religious donation, worthy of veneration with cupped palms, and is the supreme field of merit for the world.
Katamehi dasahi?What ten? Idha, bhaddāli, bhikkhu asekhāya sammādiṭṭhiyā samannāgato hoti, asekhena sammāsaṅkappena samannāgato hoti, asekhāya sammāvācāya samannāgato hoti, asekhena sammākammantena samannāgato hoti, asekhena sammāājīvena samannāgato hoti, asekhena sammāvāyāmena samannāgato hoti, asekhāya sammāsatiyā samannāgato hoti, asekhena sammāsamādhinā samannāgato hoti, asekhena sammāñāṇena samannāgato hoti, asekhāya sammāvimuttiyā samannāgato hoti—
sammāsaṅkappena → sammāsaṅkhappena (pts) | asekhāya → asekkhāya (bjt) | asekhena → asekkhena (bjt)
It’s when a mendicant has an adept’s right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right immersion, right knowledge, and right freedom.
imehi kho, bhaddāli, dasahi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu āhuneyyo hoti pāhuneyyo dakkhiṇeyyo añjalikaraṇīyo anuttaraṁ puññakkhettaṁ lokassā”ti.
pāhuneyyo → pāhuṇeyyo (bj)
A mendicant with these ten qualities is worthy of offerings dedicated to the gods, worthy of hospitality, worthy of a religious donation, worthy of veneration with cupped palms, and is the supreme field of merit for the world.”

Idamavoca bhagavā.
idamavoca → idam-avoca (pts)
That is what the Buddha said.
Attamano āyasmā bhaddāli bhagavato bhāsitaṁ abhinandīti.Satisfied, Venerable Bhaddāli approved what the Buddha said.

Bhaddālisuttaṁ niṭṭhitaṁ pañcamaṁ.
bhaddālisuttaṁ niṭṭhitaṁ → bhaddāli suttaṁ (bjt)
