9: The Book of the Nines
67. Lower Fetters
- DG BB TBW © Translated from the Pali by Bhikkhu Bodhi (More copyright information)
1"Bhikkhus, there are these five lower fetters. What five? Personal-existence view, doubt, wrong grasp of behavior and observances, sensual desire, and ill will.
2These are the five lower fetters …. These four establishments of mindfulness are to be developed for abandoning these five lower fetters."
1"Pañcimāni, bhikkhave, orambhāgiyāni saṁyojanāni. Katamāni pañca? Sakkāyadiṭṭhi, vicikicchā, sīlabbataparāmāso, kāmacchando, byāpādo – imāni kho, bhikkhave, pañcorambhāgiyāni saṁyojanāni.
2Imesaṁ kho, bhikkhave, pañcannaṁ orambhāgiyānaṁ saṁyojanānaṁ pahānāya … pe … ime cattāro satipaṭṭhānā bhāvetabbā"ti.
Pañcamaṁ.
