2:6 Righteous Conduct

274“Righteous conduct, the spiritual life:
they call this the supreme treasure.
But if one who has gone forth
from home to homelessness, (1)

275“is of scurrilous character,
a brute who delights in harassing others,
one’s way of life is worse;
one stirs up dust for oneself. (2)

276“A bhikkhu who delights in quarrels,
cloaked by the state of delusion,
does not know what has been declared,
the Dhamma taught by the Buddha. (3)

277“Harassing one who is self-developed,
led on by ignorance,
one does not know defilement
as the path leading to hell. (4)

278“Having entered the lower world,
going from womb to womb,
from darkness to darkness,
such a bhikkhu meets suffering after death. (5)

279“As there might be a cesspit,
full to the brim, many years old,
such a one would be similar,
for one who is blemished is hard to purify. (6)

280“When you know one like this,
bhikkhus, one attached to the home life,
of evil desires, evil intentions,
evil conduct and resort, (7) [50]

281“having come together in harmony,
all of you should shun him.
Cast out the trash!
Expel the depraved fellow! (8)

282“Then sweep the chaff away, non-ascetics
who imagine themselves ascetics!
Having blown away those of evil desires,
of evil conduct and resort, (9)

283“let the pure, ever mindful,
make their dwelling with the pure.
Then, harmonious and judicious,
you will make an end of suffering.” (10)

2:6 Kapilasutta (dhammacariyasutta)

274Dhammacariyaṁ brahmacariyaṁ,
Etadāhu vasuttamaṁ;
Pabbajitopi ce hoti,
Agārā anagāriyaṁ.

275 So ce mukharajātiko,
vihesābhirato mago;
Jīvitaṁ tassa pāpiyo,
rajaṁ vaḍḍheti attano.

276 Kalahābhirato bhikkhu,
Mohadhammena āvuto;
Akkhātampi na jānāti,
Dhammaṁ buddhena desitaṁ.

277 Vihesaṁ bhāvitattānaṁ,
avijjāya purakkhato;
Saṅkilesaṁ na jānāti,
maggaṁ nirayagāminaṁ.

278 Vinipātaṁ samāpanno,
gabbhā gabbhaṁ tamā tamaṁ;
Sa ve tādisako bhikkhu,
pecca dukkhaṁ nigacchati.

279 Gūthakūpo yathā assa,
sampuṇṇo gaṇavassiko;
Yo ca evarūpo assa,
dubbisodho hi sāṅgaṇo.

280 Yaṁ evarūpaṁ jānātha,
bhikkhavo gehanissitaṁ;
Pāpicchaṁ pāpasaṅkappaṁ,
pāpaācāragocaraṁ.

281 Sabbe samaggā hutvāna,
abhinibbajjiyātha naṁ;
Kāraṇḍavaṁ niddhamatha,
kasambuṁ apakassatha.

282 Tato palāpe vāhetha,
Assamaṇe samaṇamānine;
Niddhamitvāna pāpicche,
Pāpaācāragocare.

283 Suddhā suddhehi saṁvāsaṁ,
Kappayavho patissatā;
Tato samaggā nipakā,
Dukkhassantaṁ karissathāti.
