SA 807（八〇七） 一奢能伽罗
Parallel to: SN 54.11
Thus have I heard: | 如是我闻： |
At one time the Buddha was dwelling in a forest of asanas. | 一时，佛住一奢能伽罗林中。 |
At that time the World-Honored One said to the bhikṣus, "I wish to sit in meditation for two months. Bhikṣus should not come and go, except for those who bring food and the time of the poṣadha ceremony." After the World-Honored One said this, he sat in meditation for two months. No bhikṣu dared to come and go, except for those who brought food and the time of the poṣadha ceremony. | 尔时，世尊告诸比丘：「我欲二月坐禅，诸比丘勿复往来，唯除送食比丘及布萨时。」尔时，世尊作是语已，即二月坐禅，无一比丘敢往来者，唯除送食及布萨时。 |
At that time, after the World-Honored One had sat in meditation for two months, he arose from meditation and sat before the assembly of bhikṣus. He said to the bhikṣus, "If non-Buddhist renunciants come and ask you, 'How did the Śramaṇa Gautama sit in meditation for two months?' you should answer, 'The Tathāgata sat in meditation for two months, contemplating the mindfulness of inhalation and exhalation.' Why is that? For those two months, I contemplated the mindfulness of inhalation and exhalation, dwelling in contemplation. When inhaling, I was mindful of inhalation and knew it as it really is. When exhaling, I was mindful of exhalation and knew it as it really is. Whether long or short, I was mindful of the inhalation of all bodily sensations and knew it as it really is. I was mindful of the exhalation of all bodily sensations and knew it as it really is. I was mindful of the cessation of bodily activity when inhaling and knew it as it really is. I was mindful of the cessation of bodily activity when exhaling and knew it as it really is. Having known all this, I then thought, 'This is coarse contemplation. I will now cease this contemplation and dwell in a further subtle contemplation.' | 尔时，世尊坐禅二月过已，从禅觉，于比丘僧前坐，告诸比丘：「若诸外道出家来问汝等：『沙门瞿昙于二月中云何坐禅？』汝应答言：『如来二月以安那般那念坐禅思惟住。』所以者何？我于此二月念安那般那，多住思惟，入息时念入息如实知，出息时念出息如实知。若长若短，一切身觉入息念如实知，一切身觉出息念如实知。身行休息入息念如实知，乃至灭出息念如实知。我悉知已，我时作是念：『此则麁思惟住，我今于此思惟止息已，当更修余微细修住而住。』 |
"At that time, having ceased coarse contemplation, I then entered subtle contemplation and dwelt in it for a long time. Then three sons of the gods, of extremely excellent appearance, came to me in the night. One son of the gods said, 'The time has come, Śramaṇa Gautama.' Another son of the gods said, 'It is not yet time, it is approaching.' The third son of the gods said, 'It is neither time nor approaching. This is the practice of dwelling, the peace of the Arhat.'" | 「尔时，我息止麁思惟已，即更入微细思惟，多住而住。时，有三天子，极上妙色，过夜来至我所。一天子作是言：『沙门瞿昙时到。』复有一天子言：『此非时到，是时向至。』第三天子言：『非为时到，亦非时向至，此则修住，是阿罗诃寂灭耳！』」 |
The Buddha told the bhikṣus, "If there is correct teaching on the dwelling of the noble ones, the dwelling of the gods, the dwelling of the brahman, the dwelling of the learners, the dwelling of the non-learners, and the dwelling of the Tathāgata, the learners will attain what they have not yet attained, reach what they have not yet reached, and realize what they have not yet realized. The non-learners will dwell in the happiness of the present Dharma. That is to say, the mindfulness of inhalation and exhalation. This is the correct teaching. Why is that? The mindfulness of inhalation and exhalation is the dwelling of the noble ones, the dwelling of the gods, the dwelling of the brahman, up to the present Dharma happiness of the non-learners." | 佛告诸比丘：「若有正说，圣住、天住、梵住、学住、无学住、如来住，学人所不得当得，不到当到，不证当证，无学人现法乐住者，谓安那般那念，此则正说。所以者何？安那般那念者，是圣住、天住、梵住，乃至无学现法乐住。」 |
Having spoken this sūtra, the bhikṣus heard what the Buddha said and joyfully upheld it. | 佛说此经已，诸比丘闻佛所说，欢喜奉行。 |
