Translator: Mahāsaṅgīti Tipiṭaka Buddhavasse 2500

Ekaṁ samayaṁ āyasmā kassapagotto kosalesu viharati aññatarasmiṁ vanasaṇḍe.

Tena kho pana samayena āyasmā kassapagotto divāvihāragato aññataraṁ chetaṁ ovadati.

Atha kho yā tasmiṁ vanasaṇḍe adhivatthā devatā āyasmantaṁ kassapagottaṁ saṁvejetukāmā yenāyasmā kassapagotto tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā āyasmantaṁ kassapagottaṁ gāthāhi ajjhabhāsi:

“Giriduggacaraṁ chetaṁ,

appapaññaṁ acetasaṁ;

Akāle ovadaṁ bhikkhu,

mandova paṭibhāti maṁ.

Suṇāti na vijānāti,

Āloketi na passati;

Dhammasmiṁ bhaññamānasmiṁ,

Atthaṁ bālo na bujjhati.

Sacepi dasa pajjote,

dhārayissasi kassapa;

Neva dakkhati rūpāni,

cakkhu hissa na vijjatī”ti.

Atha kho āyasmā kassapagotto tāya devatāya saṁvejito saṁvegamāpādīti.
