5. Cundasuttaṃ

83.

‘‘Pucchāmi muniṃ pahūtapaññaṃ, (iti cundo kammāraputto)

Buddhaṃ dhammassāmiṃ vītataṇhaṃ;

Dvipaduttamaṃ ² sārathīnaṃ pavaraṃ, kati loke samaṇā tadiṅgha brūhi’’.

84.

‘‘Caturo samaṇā na pañcamatthi, (cundāti bhagavā)

Te te āvikaromi sakkhipuṭṭho;

Maggajino maggadesako ca, magge jīvati yo ca maggadūsī’’.

85.

‘‘Kaṃ maggajinaṃ vadanti buddhā, (iti cundo kammāraputto)

Maggakkhāyī kathaṃ atulyo hoti;

Magge jīvati me brūhi puṭṭho, atha me āvikarohi maggadūsiṃ’’ ⁴.

86.

‘‘Yo tiṇṇakathaṃkatho visallo, nibbānābhirato anānugiddho;

Lokassa sadevakassa netā, tādiṃ maggajinaṃ vadanti buddhā.

87.

‘‘Paramaṃ paramanti yodha ñatvā, akkhāti vibhajate idheva dhammaṃ;

Taṃ kaṅkhachidaṃ muniṃ anejaṃ, dutiyaṃ bhikkhunamāhu maggadesiṃ.

88.

‘‘Yo dhammapade sudesite, magge jīvati saññato satīmā;

Anavajjapadāni sevamāno, tatiyaṃ bhikkhunamāhu maggajīviṃ.

89.

‘‘Chadanaṃ katvāna subbatānaṃ, pakkhandī kuladūsako pagabbho;

Māyāvī asaññato palāpo, patirūpena caraṃ sa maggadūsī.

90.

‘‘Ete ca paṭivijjhi yo gahaṭṭho, sutavā ariyasāvako sapañño;

Sabbe netādisāti ⁶ ñatvā, iti disvā na hāpeti tassa saddhā;

Kathaṃ hi duṭṭhena asampaduṭṭhaṃ, suddhaṃ asuddhena samaṃ kareyyā’’ti.

Cundasuttaṃ pañcamaṃ niṭṭhitaṃ.
