Kumārakasutta

Translator: Mahāsaṅgīti Tipiṭaka Buddhavasse 2500

Evaṁ me sutaṁ—

ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.

Tena kho pana samayena sambahulā kumārakā antarā ca sāvatthiṁ antarā ca jetavanaṁ macchake bādhenti.

Atha kho bhagavā pubbaṇhasamayaṁ nivāsetvā pattacīvaramādāya sāvatthiṁ piṇḍāya pāvisi.

Addasā kho bhagavā te sambahule kumārake antarā ca sāvatthiṁ antarā ca jetavanaṁ macchake bādhente.

Disvāna yena te kumārakā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā te kumārake etadavoca:

“bhāyatha vo, tumhe kumārakā, dukkhassa, appiyaṁ vo dukkhan”ti?

“Evaṁ, bhante, bhāyāma mayaṁ, bhante, dukkhassa, appiyaṁ no dukkhan”ti.

Atha kho bhagavā etamatthaṁ viditvā tāyaṁ velāyaṁ imaṁ udānaṁ udānesi:

“Sace bhāyatha dukkhassa,

sace vo dukkhamappiyaṁ;

Mākattha pāpakaṁ kammaṁ,

āvi vā yadi vā raho.

Sace ca pāpakaṁ kammaṁ,

karissatha karotha vā;

Na vo dukkhā pamutyatthi,

upeccapi palāyatan”ti.

Catutthaṁ.
