Therein, this is said: "One perfect in training, who has abandoned defilements, foremost in wisdom, seeing the end of birth; That sage, indeed, the last-body-bearer, who has abandoned Māra, I call one who has crossed beyond old age. "Therefore, always delighting in meditation, composed, ardent, seeing the end of birth; Having overcome Māra with his army, monks, become those who have crossed beyond birth and death." This meaning too was spoken by the Blessed One, thus have I heard. The Ninth. 10. The Discourse on Vigilance This was spoken by the Blessed One, spoken by the Arahant, thus have I heard: "A monk, monks, should dwell vigilant, mindful, clearly comprehending, composed, joyful, and serene, and therein, seeing the right time for wholesome states.

"Therefore, indeed, one should cultivate vigilance, an ardent monk, discerning, attaining jhāna; Having cut off the fetter of birth and old age, here and now, he will touch the unsurpassed enlightenment." This meaning too was spoken by the Blessed One, thus have I heard. The Tenth. 11. The Discourse on Those Bound for the Lower Realms This was spoken by the Blessed One, spoken by the Arahant, thus have I heard: "These two, monks, are bound for the lower realms, for hell, without abandoning this. Which two? He who is unchaste, claiming to be chaste, and he who practices the complete, pure holy life, silently) The user wants a Pāli to English translation.
