At that time, the brahmin Sonadanda was living in Campà, a place densely populated with trees, ponds, and rice, a kingdom ruled by King Bimbisara. ). 2. The Brahmins and householders in Campa heard rumors as follows: "The recluse Gotama, the Sakya clan, ordained from the Sakya clan, is traveling in the Anga country with the masses. About five hundred bhikkhus came to Campà, and to Campà. The recluse Gotama was on the shores of Lake Gaggara. The following good rumor was spread about the Blessed One Gotama: "This is the Blessed One, the A. -la-han, Right Enlightenment, Perfection of Wisdom, Well-Being, World-Speaker, Unsurpassed One, Master of Master, Master of Heaven and Humanity, Buddha, World-Honored One. With superior knowledge, he himself realized this world with the celestial world, the Brahma world, together with the recluses, brahmins, gods and humans - When he realized, he also preached the truth. He was enlightened, he preached the first good, the middle good, the good later, with written meaning. He taught the holy life of complete purity and purity. Rather nice, Then the brahmins and householders of Campà, in groups, came out of Campà and arrived at the lake of Gaggara. 3. At that time the Brahmin Sonadanda went upstairs to take a lunch break. The Brahmin Sonadanda saw the Brahmins and householders in Campa in groups, coming out of Campà and arriving in droves. at Lake Gaggara. Seeing this, the brahmin Sonadanda called the doorman: "Door, doorkeeper, why do brahmins and householders in Campa come in groups like that, coming out of Campà and arriving at Lake Gaggara?" - Venerable, there is a recluse Gotama, of the Sakya clan, ordained from the Sakya clan, traveling in the country of Anga with a large community of bhikkhus about five hundred, arriving at Campà, and at Campà the recluse Gotama is on the shore of Lake Gaggara.

Now those people have come to see the Venerable Gotama. "Go to the brahmins and householders of Campa, doorkeeper, and when you arrive, say to the brahmins and householders: 'The brahmin Sonadanda said: 'Look. Sages, wait! The brahmin Sonadanda will personally go to see the recluse Gotama." - Yes! That doorkeeper obeyed the brahmin Sonadanda's word and went to the brahmins and householders in Campa. When he had arrived, he said to the brahmins and householders of Campa: - Brahmin Sonadanda said: "Hey, friends, wait! Brahmin Sonadanda will personally go to see the recluse Gotama". 4. At that time, there were about five hundred Brahmins from many different localities who came to stay in Campa for business purposes. The brahmins heard: "The brahmin Sonadanda will come to see the recluse Gotama". These brahmins came to the Brahmin Sonadanda, and when they had arrived, they said to the Brahmin Sonadanda: - Is Venerable Sonadanda going to see the recluse Gotama? - Hey, sages, that's my intention. I will go to see the recluse Gotama. - Venerable Canke, do not come to see the recluse Gotama. It is not fitting for Venerable Sonadanda to come to see the recluse Gotama. If Venerable Sonadanda comes to see the recluse Gotama, then the venerable Sonadanda's reputation is damaged, and the recluse Gotama's reputation is increased. As the venerable Sonadanda's reputation was decimated and the recluse Gotama's reputation increased, on this point it was unworthy for the venerable Sonadanda to come to see the recluse Gotama, it was fitting for the recluse Gotama audience with Venerable Sonadanda. Again, the good Venerable Sonadanda was born in both matrilineal and paternal descent, with pure bloodline up to seven generations of ancestors without a single stain, without any denigration on the matter of bloodline and birth.

Venerable Sonadanda lived in Campà, a place densely populated with trees, fertile ponds, abundant rice, a kingdom, a pure land, a gift of King Seniya Bimbisàra of Magadha. Because of this, it is unworthy for the Venerable Sonadanda to come to see the recluse Gotama, it is worthy for the recluse Gotama to see the Venerable Sonadanda. 6. Hearing that, the Brahmin Sonadanda said to those Brahmins: - Friends, listen to me explain why it is worthy for us to visit the recluse Gotama, whereas it is unworthy for the recluse Gotama to visit us. Indeed, friends, the good recluse Gotama is born in both matrilineal and patriarchal descent, pure bloodline up to seven generations of ancestors, unblemished, unblemished, and unaffected with regard to bloodline matters. longevity; for this point it is unworthy for the recluse Gotama to come to see us, on the contrary it is worthy for us to come and see the recluse Gotama.

Indeed, friends, the recluse Gotama is the chief sect, the master sect, the guru sect, revered as the supreme among the patriarchs. Friends, the reputation of some ascetics and brahmins is based on evidence, not the reputation of the recluse Gotama. The fame of the recluse Gotama rested on his unsurpassed wisdom.

These, friends, are the advantages that I know of the Venerable Gotama. Venerable Gotama does not have that many advantages. Venerable Gotama has innumerable advantages. 7. When they heard that, the Brahmins said to the Brahmin Sonadanda: - The venerable Sonadanda praised the recluse Gotama thus, even if one were far away from the Venerable Gotama a hundred yojanas, it would be enough for him and his family to go to see the recluse Gotama, even if he had to bring food with him. . Therefore, we will all go to see the recluse Gotama. At that time, the brahmin Sonadanda, together with a large assembly of brahmins, went to the shore of Lake Gaggara. 8. The following anxiety arose in the brahmin Sonadanda's mind as he passed through the forest: "If I ask the recluse Gotama a question and if the recluse Gotama answers me as follows:" You should not ask questions like this, brahmin.” At such times, this assembly will despise me: "The brahmin Sonadanda is stupid and incompetent, unable to ask one question to nine. sure." If this assembly despises me, then my reputation will be reduced. And whoever has a reduced reputation, the time to accept offerings will be reduced. Because our offerings depend on the honor we have. If the recluse Gotama asks me a question, my answer to that question may not satisfy the mind; and if the recluse Gotama says to me thus: "Brahmin, That question should be answered like this", at such times, this assembly will despise me: "The brahmin Sonadanda is an incompetent fool who cannot satisfy the mind of the recluse Gotama with an answer to that question.” If this assembly despises me, my reputation will be diminished and who will be famous? If we come this close and we come back without seeing the recluse Gotama, the time is reduced, the time for accepting offerings is reduced, because our offerings depend on the honor we have. these people will despise me: "The brahmin Sonadanda is a fool, incompetent, arrogant, stubborn, afraid, dare not come to see the recluse Gotama, how did he come this close? come back without seeing the recluse Gotama.” If the assembly despises us, our honor will be reduced, and those whose honor is reduced, the time to accept offerings will be reduced. with the honor we have." 9. At that time the Brahmin Sonadanda came to the Blessed One. After arriving, he said cordially, greeted, congratulated and then sat down to one side. The brahmins and householders in Campa, some bowed down to the recluse Gotama and sat down to one side, some greeted and congratulated the recluse Gotama, then sat down to one side, some joined the others. He bowed to the recluse Gotama and sat down on one side, someone said his name and family name and sat down on one side, someone sat down quietly on the other. At such a time, this assembly will despise me: "The brahmin Sonadanda is a fool, incompetent, does not satisfy the mind of the recluse Gotama with that answer." If this assembly despises me, my reputation will be reduced. And those whose reputation is diminished, the acceptance of offerings is reduced. Because our offerings depend on the reputation we have. May the recluse Gotama ask me the question of the transmission of the three Vedas. Then surely I can satisfy His mind with my answer to that question." Because our offerings depend on the reputation we have. May the recluse Gotama ask me the question of the transmission of the three Vedas. Then surely I can satisfy His mind with my answer to that question." Because our offerings depend on the reputation we have. May the recluse Gotama ask me the question of the transmission of the three Vedas. Then surely I can satisfy His mind with my answer to that question." 11. At that time, the World-Honored One, knowing the brahmin Sonadanda's anxiety and confusion with his perception, immediately thought to himself: "This brahmin Sonadanda is confused and worried. Let's ask. The brahmin Sonadanda with the question of the transmission of the three Vedas. Then the Blessed One asked the brahmin Sonadanda: - Brahmins, how many qualities must a brahmin possess to be called a brahmin, and to be able to say, "I am a brahmin," the word It's true, not a lie? 12. At that time, the Brahmin Sonadanda thought: "Indeed, what we wish, hope, ask for, expect. Hope the recluse Gotama should ask me the question of the transmission of the three books. Then surely we can satisfy His mind with the answer to that question. Now the recluse Gotama asks me the question of the transmission of the three Vedas. may his mind be satisfied with the answer to that question". 13. Then the brahmin Sonadanda sat upright, looked around the assembly and said to the Blessed One: - There are five qualities, brahmins must be complete to be called brahmin and to be able to say, "I am a brahmin", that statement is true, not is a lie.

These are, venerable Gotama, the five qualities, which brahmins must be perfect to be called brahmins and in order to be able, when saying: 'I am a brahmin', the word That's the truth, not a lie. 14. - Hey Brahmin, in these five virtues, one can be ignored, only four virtues, but still can be called Brahmin and to be able to say: "I am a Brahmin," that statement is true, not a lie. - Venerable Gotama, it is possible. Venerable Gotama, in these five qualities, we are able to give up identity. Indeed, what can color do? When a good Brahmin is born from a matriarchal and patriarchal lineage, his bloodline is pure until seven generations of ancestors, without a single stain, without a single scorn on the matter of bloodline birth.

Venerable Gotama, of these three qualities, we can forsake life. Indeed, what can life do?

Of these qualities, brahmins must be complete in order to be called brahmins, and to be able to say, "I am a brahmin," that statement is correct, no must be a lie. 17. When they heard that, the other Brahmins said to the Brahmin Sonadanda: - Don't say such things, Venerable Sonadanda! Don't say such things, Venerable Sonadanda! Venerable Sonadanda despised the use of beauty, despised mantras, and despised life. Indeed, Venerable Sonadanda was leaning towards the concept of the recluse Gotama. 18. At that time, the Blessed One said to those Brahmins: - If the brahmins think: 'The brahmin Sonadanda is not a learned man, the Brahmin Sonadanda is not a good orator, the Brahmin Sonadanda is not his family. Sonadanda the brahman and scholar cannot argue with the recluse Gotama on this matter," in the days of the Brahmin Sonadanda, stand still and let you reason with Me. If the brahmins think: "The brahmin Sonadanda is a man of great knowledge, the brahmin Sonadanda is a good orator, the brahmin Sonadanda is a scholar, and the brahmin- Sonadanda can argue with the recluse Gotama on this matter", then you stand still and let the brahmin Sonadanda reason with Me. 19. When he heard that, the brahmin Sonadanda told the Blessed One: - Venerable Gotama, please stand still. Venerable Gotama, please keep quiet. I will answer those brahmins in accordance with the true Dharma. Then the brahmin Sonadanda said to those brahmins: - Hey, sages, don't say like that: "Venerable Sonadanda despises the use of color, despises mantras, despises life. Indeed, Venerable Sonadanda has leaned towards the concept of recluse Gotama". Dear friends, I do not slander the form or the mantra or the birth life. 20. At that time young Angaka was the nephew of the Brahmin Sonadanda sitting in that assembly. The brahmin Sonadanda said to the other brahmins: - Hey, sages, have you seen my nephew, young Angaka? - Venerable sir, did you see? "Sage, young Angaka is handsome, pleasing to everyone, with his excellent skin color, handsome appearance, elegant gestures, noble posture, none of them can match this. about color content, except for the recluse Gotama.

Dear friends, if the young Angaka kills sentient beings, takes what is not given, engages in private intercourse with his wife, lies, drinks alcohol, Like this, sages, what can we do with color, and what can life do? When, friends, a brahmin who is virtuous, has great virtue, is well-rounded in virtue, is one of great learning and discerning, the first or second among spoon-wielding people. ; Friends, those brahmins who possess these two qualities are called brahmins, and in order to be able to say, "I am a brahmin," that statement is true. true, not a lie. 21. - This Brahmin in those two qualities, one can be omitted, and the Brahmins are full of a certain quality, so that they can say: "I am Brahmin" , that statement is true speech, not a lie. - Venerable Gotama, it is not possible. Venerable Gotama, wisdom is purified by virtue, and virtue is purified by wisdom. Where there is morality, there is wisdom; where there is wisdom, there is morality; people with certain virtue have wisdom; People with certain wisdom have moral virtues. Virtue and wisdom are considered the ultimate victory in the world. Venerable Gotama, just like washing hands with hands, feet to wash feet; Likewise, Venerable Gotama, wisdom is purified by virtue, and virtue is purified by wisdom. Where there is morality, there is wisdom; Where there is wisdom, there is morality. People with certain virtues have wisdom; People with certain wisdom have moral virtues. Virtue and wisdom are considered the ultimate victory in the world. 22. - Indeed, this Brahmin. Brahmin, wisdom is purified by virtue, and morality is purified by wisdom. Where there is morality, there is wisdom; Where there is wisdom, there is morality. People with certain virtues have wisdom; People with certain wisdom have moral virtues. Virtue and wisdom are considered the ultimate victory in the world. But, brahmin, what is morality, what is wisdom? - Venerable Gotama, we only know that this is the ultimate in this matter. Good thing, if Venerable Gotama explained the meaning of that statement! 23. - Hey Brahmin, so listen and think carefully, I will speak. - Venerable, please. The brahmin Sonadanda replied to the Blessed One. The Buddha said as follows: - Hey Brahmin, here the World-Honored One was born, an Arahant, a Perfectly Enlightened One... [same as the "Ascendant" sutra - sutta 2, suttas 40-74 ] ... This Brahmin, so the Male-stilts are fully ethical. This, brahmin, is morality. ... he testifies and abides in the first meditation... and abides in the second meditation... the third in the meditation... and abides in the fourth meditation... the mind is directed to tri-view... Hey Brahmin- Such subject is wisdom [as the "Sa-Mon results", paragraph 75-98]. 24. When he heard that, the brahmin Sonadanda said to the Blessed One: - How wonderful, Venerable Gotama! How wonderful, Venerable Gotama! Venerable Gotama, like a man who raises what has fallen, reveals what is hidden, shows the way to those who are lost, brings light into the dark so that those with eyes can see form. In the same way, the Dharma has been explained by Venerable Gotama using many means of presentation. So now I take refuge in the Blessed One Gotama, take refuge in the Dharma, and take refuge in the Monk Sangha. I hope Venerable Gotama accepts me as a disciple, from now on until the end of my life, I will be a lifelong devotee. And hope Venerable Gotama, tomorrow, together with the group of monks, accept the invitation to have a meal by me. The Buddha silently accepted. At that time the brahmin Sonadanda, knowing that the Blessed One had accepted the invitation, immediately rose from his seat, bowed down to the Blessed One, turned his right body towards the Buddha, and bid him farewell. Then the brahmin Sonadanda, when the night was over, made ready at home delicious meals, hard and soft, and informed the time to the Blessed One: "The hour has come, venerable Gotama, the rice is ready. ready". 25. At that time, in the morning, the World-Honored One put on his robes, brought his bowl and bowl, and went together with the Male-stilts to the Brahmin Sonadanda's residence, went and sat on the prepared seat. The brahmin Sonadanda made with his own hands the assembly of bhikkhus with the Buddha at the helm, satisfied with delicious foods, both hard and soft. At that time the brahmin Sonadanda, having learned that the Blessed One had finished his meal, had washed his hands and bowl, took another low chair and sat down to one side. After sitting down to one side, the brahmin Sonadanda said to the Blessed One: 26. - Venerable Gotama, when I am in the assembly, if I get up from my seat and pay homage to the Blessed One, this assembly will defame me. Whoever is slandered by this assembly, his reputation will be damaged, and whoever's reputation will be damaged, the time for accepting offerings will be reduced. Because making offerings depends on the reputation we have. Venerable Gotama, if I am in the assembly and I bow my hands together, I hope that Venerable Gotama will recognize that I am standing up. Venerable Gotama, if in the assembly I take off my turban, may Venerable Gotama accept it as a bow with my head. Venerable Gotama, when I am riding in a carriage, if I get off the bus and pay homage to the Blessed One, the assembly will slander me. Those who are slandered by this assembly, their reputation is damaged, and those whose reputations are damaged, the time for accepting offerings is reduced. Because the offering depends on the reputation we have. Venerable Gotama, if, while I was riding, I lowered the handle of my whip, I hope Venerable Gotama would recognize that it was me getting off the carriage. Venerable Gotama, if, while I am riding, I wave my hand, may Venerable Gotama accept it as a bow with my head. 27. Then the Blessed One gave a sermon, taught, encouraged, stimulated and made the brahmin Sonadanda happy, then got up from his seat and said goodbye.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).WORLD VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST ORDER=BUDDHIST DHARMA WHEEL GOLDEN MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THE WOMEN OF THE SAKYA CLAN CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.6/12/2021.
