SN1:8 Utterly Muddled
- DG BB TBW © Translated from the Pali by Bhikkhu Bodhi. (More copyright information)
1At Sāvatthī. Standing to one side, that devata recited this verse in the presence of the Blessed One:
2v.13 "Those who are utterly muddled about things,
Who may be led into others’ doctrines,
Fast asleep, they have not yet awakened:
It is time for them to awaken."
The Blessed One:
3v.14 "Those who aren’t muddled about things,
Who cannot be led into others’ doctrines,
Those awakened ones, having rightly known,
Fare evenly amidst the uneven."
1Sāvatthinidānaṁ. Ekamantaṁ ṭhitā kho sā devatā bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi:
2"Yesaṁ dhammā susammuṭṭhā,
paravādesu nīyare;
Suttā te nappabujjhanti,
kālo tesaṁ pabujjhitun"ti.
3"Yesaṁ dhammā asammuṭṭhā,
paravādesu na nīyare;
Te sambuddhā sammadaññā,
caranti visame saman"ti.
