57. The 
Sutta (Kukkuravatika sutta)

---

This is how I hear.

Once in the midst of the people Koliya Haliddavasana is the name of a town of Koliya people.

Then Punna Koliyaputta, the ox and Seniya, practiced the dog, went to the Blessed One, after visiting Punna Koliyaputta, practicing the bull, bowed to the Blessed One and sat down. As Seniya, the dog, said to ask the Blessed One, after addressing the question of visiting friends, then sit down, sit like a dog. After sitting on one side, Punna Koliyaputta, on the practice of the cow, the Blessed One:

- Lord Buddha, naked Seniya, dog behavior, practicing hardship, eating food tossed to the ground, accepting and practicing the dog for a long time, so beast him. How is his destiny?

- Okay Punna, stop here, do not ask me again.

The second time ... (as above) ... The third time Punna Koliyaputta,

- The Lord of the Light, naked Seniya on the dog behavior, practice hardship, eat food tossed on the ground, accept and practice the dog for a long time, so beast him. , his destiny?

- Punna, I really did not accept your question and said, "Okay, Punna, stop here, do not ask me."However, I will answer him. Here, this Punna, who practices dog behavior in a completely complete way, practicing the dog world completely completely, practicing the dog mind completely fully, practicing the majestic dog Completely complete, after the body of the common body will be born together with the dog. If he has the wrong view: "By this world, this virtue, ascetic, or this virtue, we will be born to these gods or other gods," this Punna, for those who have wrong views I say that one of two births is the following: hell or birth. Thus, this Punna, if well-behaved dog, was born in the dog, if not accomplished,

When told that, Seniya naked, dog behavior, crying tears. Then the Blessed One said to Punna Koliyaputta, the coworker:

- Punna, I did not accept your question and said, "Okay, Punna, stop here, do not ask me again."

- Lord, I do not cry because the words of the Buddha talk about me. But because of the White Sun, I have accepted and maintained this dog for a long time. Well, Punna Koliyaputta, this cow, has accepted and maintained this cow, for a long time, so his birth, how his destiny?

- Okay Seniya, stop here, do not ask me again.

The second time ... (as above) ... The third time, naked Seniya, dog behavior, the White Sun:

- Well, the Punna Koliyaputta has accepted and maintained this cow for a long time, so his birth, how his destiny?

"Seniya, I really did not accept your question and said," Okay, Seniya, stop here, do not ask me. " But I will answer him. Here, this Seniya, who is happy to live the cow in a completely complete way, practice the world of the cow completely completely, practice the mind of a cow completely complete, Completely complete, after the general body collapse, will be born with the same cow. If he has the wrong view: "By this world, this ascetic, ascetic, or morally, we will be born into these gods or other gods," this time Seniya, for those who wrong view, I say that one of two births is as follows: hell or birth. Thus, this Seniya, if the well done cow, the time was born in the cow, if not accomplished,

When it was said, Punna Koliyaputta, cowboy, crying, tears. Then the Sun said to Seniya, dog behavior:

- Seniya, I did not accept (question) of him and said: "Seniya just then, stop here, do not ask me again."

- Lord, I do not cry because the words of the Buddha talk about me. Because, the White Sun, I have accepted and maintained this cow for a long time. Lord Buddha, I have confidence in the Buddha: The Sun can sermonize me so that I can give up the behavior of this cow and to leave Seniya, dog behavior, can devout dog This.

"Punna, listen and clever, I will say.

- Yes, White World.

Punna Koliyaputta obeys the Blessed One. The Buddha said as follows:

- This Punna has four kinds of karma, I have self-certification, realization and claims. how is four?This Punna, with black karmas, results in a black karmic retribution. This, Punna, has a white karmic retribution, Punna, a black and white karmic retriever, Punna, not black and white, karma leads to the end of the karma.

And this Punna, how are black karma leading to black karmic retribution? Here, Punna is the one who created the damaging corpse, creating damaging impurities, creating damaging wills. After creating the damaged corpse, the guilty is harmed, the harm done, he is born into the world of harm. Because of being born into a harmful world, this person experiences feelings that are harmful. Because of emotions of damaging emotions, this person experiences feelings that are detrimental, homogeneous suffering, like sentient beings in hell. Thus, this Punna, the arising of a living being in beings, beings that arise depending on their actions, and when beings are born, the time stimulates the emotions.Therefore, Punna, I say: "The living beings are my own happiness." Thus, this Punna, called black karma, results in black karmic retribution.

And this Punna, how are white karma leading to white retribution? Here, this Punna, there are people who do not harm, do not harm, do not harm no harm. After the body is not harmless, the mouth is not harmless, the mind is not harmless, this is born in the world without harm. Because of being born in the world without any harm, he feels emotions without harm. Emotional emotions are not without harm, this feeling of feeling is not without harm, pure pleasure, like the Subhakinha (Pure Land). Thus, Punna is the arising of a being dependent on beings, beings that arise depending on their actions; and when beings are born, the time that emotions stimulate them. Thus, this Punna, I say: "The living beings are self-employed." Thus, this Punna, called white kamma, results in white retribution.

And this Punna, how are black and white karma leading to black and white karmic retribution? Here, Punna, there are people who do harmless and unharmed forms, harmless and unharmed canvases, harmless and harmless practices. After injuring and damaging the body, the harmful and unharmed guideline, harmless and harmless, is born into a harmless and harmless world. Because of being born in a harmless and harmless world, he feels emotions that are harmless and harmless. Because of feelings of harm and detriment, this person experiences feelings that are harmless and unharmed, having mixed feelings, as some human beings, some gods and some beings in death. Thus, this Punna is the arising of a being dependent on beings, beings arise depending on their actions; and when beings are born, the time that emotions stimulate them. Therefore, Punna, I say: "The living beings are my own happiness." So this Punna, called black and white karma, results in black and white karmic retribution.

And this Punna, what is black and white karmic retribution, brings black karmic retribution, karma leads to the end of karma? Here, this Punna has the will (Cetana: Privy Department) deduction of black karma leads to black karmic retribution, where there is the will to excuse white karma leads to white karmic retribution, Black and white brought black karmic retribution. Here, this Punna, where there is such a will, this Punna, called black non-white karma leads to karmic retribution, black karma, leading to the end of karma. Punna, these four kinds of karma, I have self-knowledge, realized and declared.

When it is said, Punna Koliyaputta, practice the beast of the White Sun:

- It is so wonderful, the Blessed One! Really, White World! Lord Buddha, as he stands up what was thrown down, exposed what is hidden, directions for those who go astray, bring light in the dark so that people with eyes can see the color . Likewise, the dharma has been used by the Blessed One to explain.I would like to take refuge in the Buddha, take refuge in the Dharma and take refuge in them. May the Sun accept children as laymen, from now on to the general network, the whole life of the threshold.

Also naked Seniya, dog behavior, the White Sun:

- It is so wonderful, the Blessed One! Really, White World! Lord Buddha, as he stands up what was thrown down, exposed what is hidden, directions for those who go astray, bring light in the dark so that people with eyes can see the color . Likewise, the dharma has been used by the Blessed One to explain.I would like to take refuge in the Buddha, take refuge in the Dharma and take refuge in them. I wish you well to be with the Blessed One, hope for the Buddha.

- Seniya, who formerly is a foreigner now want to go home, want to ordained in France and this law must live four months of residence. After living four months of abiding, they increase if they agree to give the monkhood, to the higher school to become monks. But I realize that here is the difference between human beings.

- If the old people are foreigners now want to go home, want to ordained in the law and this law, living four months of residence, after living four months of residence, they increase if agreed to. for the monkhood, the bhikkhu, the child will apply for a four-year residency. After the four-year residence, if bhikkhus agree, expect the monks to ordained for the child, to give the Buddha to the child to become bhikkhus.

And the Seniya, practicing the virtue of the dog, was ordained with the Blessed One, being ordained. Venerable soon no longer, Venerable Seniya live alone calm, no discharge, zeal, need. And soon he attained the supreme goal that the descendants of the wage earners, leaving the family, living without direction. It is the highest virtue in the present, self-witness, enlightenment, attainment and reside. He knows: "Birth was done, Pham Happened, what should have done, after this life will have no other life." And Venerable Seniya became an Arahant. END=NAM MO SAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES).VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY=THICH CHAN TANH.VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.3/12/2018.
