(Cetokhila sutta)

---

This is how I hear.

At one time, the Blessed One was in Savatthi, at Jetavana, the garden of Anathapindika. Here the Blessed One calls monks: "Monks." "Yes, the Sun," the monks obey the Buddha. The Buddha preached as follows:

- Monks, pedigrees who do not kill except the five wilderness center, not to end the heart of the sublime, he can grow, mature, prosperous in France and this law, this event does not happen. out.

What are the five wilderness has not been removed? Bhikkhu, here, Bhikkhu suspected Teacher, hesitant, not assertive, not pure faith. Believers, monks, who doubt the Master, hesitant, not assertive, no pure faith, this time does not focus on effort, diligence, perseverance, effort. If one's heart is not directed toward effort, diligence, perseverance, diligence, such as the first wilderness has not been eradicated.

And again, monks, monks who doubt French, hesitant, not assertive, not pure faith ... (as above) ... If one's heart does not turn to effort, diligence , perseverance, effort, such as the second wilderness has not been eliminated.

And again, bhikkhus, rate monks suspected monk, indecisive, not assertive, not pure faith ... (If above) ... If one's heart is not directed to effort, diligence , perseverance, effort, such as the third wilderness has not been eradicated.

And again, monks, monks who doubt the study of dharma, hesitation, not assertive, not pure faith ... (as above) ... If one's heart is not toward effort, diligence, persistence; Effortlessness, such that the fourth wilderness has not been eradicated.

And again, bhikkhus, bhikkhus indignant for the virtuous fellow, no joy, the mind is anti-hard. The rate-parade, which is angry against his fellow-doers, no joy, the mind of resistance, tough, his heart is not directed toward effort, diligence, persistence, ton. If one's heart is not directed to effort, diligence, perseverance, effort, such as the fifth wilderness has not been eradicated.

So the five wilderness has not been eradicated.

What are the five minds? Bhikkhu, here, bhikkhus, for the lusts, not craving, not without desire, not without lust, not hungry, not without enthusiasm, not without enthusiasm thirst Bhikkhu-bhikkhus, the rate-rate for the sex, not not craving ... not unloving, his heart is not directed toward effort, diligence, perseverance, effort. If one's mind is not oriented towards effort, diligence, perseverance, effort, so is the first sublime center is not the end.

And again, bhikkhus, the rate-rate for self is not not craving ... (as above) ... so the second sublime center has not been end.

And again, bhikkhus, bhikkhus for material things is not craving ... (as above) ... so the third sublime heart is not finished.

And again, bhikkhus, bhikkhu do not eat until satisfied, until the belly is filled, heavier life about pleasure, satirical pleasure, sleep pleasure, pleasure about hypnosis. Monks-rate-monks do not eat until the belly is full ... (as above) ... so the fourth center of the sabbath is not finished.

And again, bhikkhus, bhikkhus who live happily with the desire to be born paradise with the thought: "I with this world, with this, with this ascetic or with this virtue will be born These gods or other gods. " Bhikkhu-kheo, rate-pedigree who live happily ... (as above) ... so is the fifth sublime center is not the end.

Thus, the five sublime minds are not finished.

Bhikkhu-bhikkhus, who has not destroyed except the five heart of this desert, has not broken the heart of this sublime, he can grow up, flourishing in France and this law, this event does not happen. .

Bhikkhu-bhikkhus, who has destroyed the five wilderness center, has broken the heart of the sublime, he can grow, mature, prosperous in France and this law, this event occurs.

What are the five wildernesses that have been eradicated? Bhikkhu, here, monks do not doubt the Master, without hesitation, assertive, pure faith. Bhikkhu-bhikkhus, who does not doubt the level of the Master, without hesitation, assertive, pure faith, this period of focus on effort, diligence, perseverance, diligence. If one's mind is toward effort, diligence, perseverance, diligence, so is the first wilderness was eliminated.

And again, monks, monks do not doubt the French, without hesitation, assertive, pure faith ... (as above) ... If one's heart toward effort, diligence Effort, diligence, such that the second wilderness was eliminated.

And again, monks, monks do not doubt rise, without hesitation, assertive, pure faith ... (as above) ... If one's heart toward effort, diligence Effort, diligence, such that the third wilderness was eliminated.

Bhikkhu-pedigree, which does not doubt the study, without hesitation, decisive, pure faith, this time the focus on effort, diligence, perseverance, effort. If one's heart is toward effort, diligence, perseverance, diligence, then the fourth wilderness has been eradicated.

And again, bhikkhus, who do not indignantly resent the fellow practitioners, happy, happy, non-resistant heart. Bhikkhu-bhikkhus, do not indignantly resent the fellow's conduct, joyful, unshakeable, hard-hearted mind, this period of focus on effort, diligence, perseverance, diligence. If one's heart toward effort, diligence diligence, effort, such as the fifth wilderness has been eradicated.

What are the five minds of the sublime end?

Bhikkhu, here, bhikkhus for the sex without craving, no desire, no love languish, no aspirations, no enthusiasm, no thirst. Bhikkhu-bhagara, which does not have lust, no desire, no lacer, no aspirations, no enthusiasm, no thirst, the heart toward effort , diligence, diligence, diligence, so is the first sublime center has been the end.

And again, bhikkhus, rate-bodhisattva for himself without craving ... (as above) ... so the second sublime heart has been end.

And again, bhikkhus, bhikkhus for the material things without craving ... (as above) ... so the third sublime heart has been endless.

And again, monks, monks do not eat until satisfied, until the belly is filled, live without heaviness pleasures satiate, pleasure about sleep, pleasure about Hypnosis ... (as above) ... so the fourth citta is the end.

And again, bhikkhus, bhikkhus do not live life, do not expect to be born heaven with the thought: "I with this world, with this, with this virtue, or with this virtue, will born of this god or other gods. "Monks, bhikkhus, do not expect to be born in heaven with the thought: "I with this world, with this happiness, with this virtue, or with this virtue, will be born. This or other gods, "the heart directed toward effort, diligence, perseverance, effort. If one's heart is toward effort, diligence, perseverance, diligence, so is the mind of the fifth sublime has been end.

So the five minds of the sublime are endless.
