Ekaṁ samayaṁ aññataro bhikkhu kosalesu viharati aññatarasmiṁ vanasaṇḍe.

Tena kho pana samayena so bhikkhu yaṁ sudaṁ pubbe ativelaṁ sajjhāyabahulo viharati so aparena samayena appossukko tuṇhībhūto saṅkasāyati.

Atha kho yā tasmiṁ vanasaṇḍe adhivatthā devatā tassa bhikkhuno dhammaṁ asuṇantī yena so bhikkhu tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā taṁ bhikkhuṁ gāthāya ajjhabhāsi:

“Kasmā tuvaṁ dhammapadāni bhikkhu,

Nādhīyasi bhikkhuhi saṁvasanto;

Sutvāna dhammaṁ labhatippasādaṁ,

Diṭṭheva dhamme labhatippasaṁsan”ti.

“Ahu pure dhammapadesu chando,

Yāva virāgena samāgamimha;

Yato virāgena samāgamimha,

Yaṁ kiñci diṭṭhaṁva sutaṁ mutaṁ vā;

Aññāya nikkhepanamāhu santo”ti.
