Chapter (Vanapattha sutta)

---

I heard this:

At one time, the Blessed One was in Savatthi, at Jetavana, the garden of Anathapindika. Here, the Blessed One calls monks: "Monks." - "The Blessed One," the bhikkhus meet the Sun. The Buddha said: "Bishops, I will preach to the Dhamma about the forest. Listen carefully and thoroughly, I will preach." "Yes, the White Sun". The rate-he pretends to worship. The Buddha preached as follows:

- Bhikkhus, here, Bhikkhu live in a forest. The monks living in this forest, the concept has not been resided, the mind has not been fixed static is not fixed static, the pirate or not completely eliminated is not completely deductible, supreme security It is necessary for the life of a monk to receive sufficient supplies, such as clothing, alms, sermons, medicine and medicine. , these items are difficult to obtain.They must think, "I live in this forest." When we live in this forest, thoughts that have not been settled are not settled, the mind has not been fixed yet. static, the gonorrhea or not completely excluded not completely deductible,

Bhikkhus, here, monks live in a forest. The monks living in this forest, the concept has not been resided, the mind has not been fixed static is not fixed static, the pirate or not completely eliminated is not completely deductible, supreme security It is not unreachable, and all the necessities of life that a monk ordained must be sufficient, such as clothing, alms, coats, medicines, These items are not easy to find. The monk, he should think like this: "I live in this forest. When I live in this forest, the thought has not been settled not to stay ... these items. But not because of the clothes we renounce, we leave the family without a family, not because of food begging. Not because of the siege ... not because of drug treatment that we leave home, abandon family, live without family. But while we are in this forest, the unconditioned thoughts are not settled ... unsurprisingly from the unmanifested unmanifested. "But bhikkhus, bhikkhus, Only with this thinking, to abandon the forest, not to stay.

Bhikkhus, here, monks live in a forest. The monks living in this forest, the concept has not been settled, the mind has not been fixed static; The gambes or have not completely eliminated completely deductible, supreme peace from the yoke that has not been attested, but the items necessary for the life of a monk must be sufficient, such as clothing, alms, dressmaking, drug therapy, these things are difficult to obtain. Bhikkhu-bhikkhu should think like this: "I live in this forest. When I live in this forest, the mind has not been habitable stay ... supreme peace from the Unforgivable boredom is attested ... These things are hard earned, but not because of the clothes we renounce, we leave our family, live without family, Not because of alms food ... not because of the siege ... not because of medication that we leave home, abandon family, live without family. But while we are in this forest, the unconditioned thoughts are settled ... unsurprisingly from the yoke that has not been attained. " With this thought, to stay in that forest, not to leave.

Bhikkhus, where bhikkhu live in a forest. The monks living in this forest, the unconscious thoughts are residing ... unsurprisingly safe from the yoke that has not been attained. And the necessary items ... earn a not difficult. Bhikkhu-bhikkhu should think like this: "I live in this forest. When I live in this forest, the mind has not been habitable stay ... supreme peace from the Yosemite has not attained the testimony, and these items are necessary ... to earn a hard way. " Bhikkhu-bhikkhu, he must remain in the forest for life, not leave.

Bhikkhus, here, Bhikkhu live in a village ...

Bhikkhus, where bhikkhu lives in a town ...

Bhikkhus, where bhikkhu lives in a city ...

Bhikkhus, where Bhikkhu live in a country ...

Bhikkhus, in which Bhikkhus lives close to one person. The monk living near this person, the unconscious thoughts are not settled ... not proven, and these items needed ... earn a hard way.Bhikkhu-bhikkhu should think like this: "I live near this person. When I live near this person, the thought has not been settled is not staying ... unprovoked, and the This is a necessity ... difficult to earn. " Bhikkhus, that bhikkhu right in that night or even in that day, not asking for permission, should immediately leave him and go without pursuing him.

Bhikkhus, Bhikkhus living near a person. The monk living near him, the unconscious thoughts are not residing ... not be certified. But these items are needed ... to make a simple effort. Bhikkhu-bhikkhu, it should be thought as follows: "I live near this person, when I live near this person, not recited meditations are not staying ... can not be attained. This is a necessity ... it is not difficult to earn a living, but it is not because of the clothes we renounce, the abandonment of the family, the absence of family ... not because of alms food ... It is not because of medication that we leave home, leave family, live without family, and when we live near this person, the mind has not been settled not to stay. unproven ". Bhikkhu-bhikkhus, with this estimate,

Bhikkhus, here, Bhikkhus lives near one person. The monk living near him, the unconscious thoughts are residing ... are attested. These items are necessary ... to earn a hard way. They should think like this: "I live near this person. When I live near this person, the thoughts that have not been settled are staying ... are attained. It is not because of the clothes we renounce, we leave the family, we live without the family ... not because the food is begging ... not because the sieve is made ... not because of the medicinal healing that we leave home, leave the family, live without family, and when we live near this person, the unconscious thoughts are settled ... supreme peace from Uncommon gums that have not been proven. " Bhikkhu-bhikkhus, only with this thinking,

Bhikkhus, here, Bhikkhus lives near one person. The monks living near him, the mind has not been habitable, the mind is not static static, the pirate or not completely eliminated completely deductible, super safe from the yoke the attainment of the attainment, and the requisites for the life that a monk ordained must be sufficient, such as clothing, alms, ready mantras, not difficult. Bhikkhu-bhikkhu should think like this: "I live near this person.
