t26n1536 abhidharma sangitiparyaya pada sastra.g2.0f

English

English version: ‘Therefore, one should stay away from greed, hatred, and ignorance (avidyā, referring to delusion and ignorance of the true nature of things), diligently cultivate wisdom, and quickly attain the end of all suffering.’ The three unwholesome thoughts (akuśala-vitarka) are: thoughts of desire (kāma-vitarka), thoughts of hatred (vyāpāda-vitarka), and thoughts of harm (vihiṃsā-vitarka). What are thoughts of desire? The answer is: the mental seeking, pervasive seeking, and close seeking of minds associated with desire and craving (kāma-rāga), the mind being manifest, extremely manifest, and presently manifest, the deliberation, planning, contemplation, and discrimination, all of which are called thoughts of desire. What are thoughts of hatred? The answer is: the mental seeking, pervasive seeking, and close seeking of minds associated with hatred (dveṣa), the mind being manifest, extremely manifest, and presently manifest, the deliberation, planning, contemplation, and discrimination, all of which are called thoughts of hatred. What are thoughts of harm? The answer is: the mental seeking, pervasive seeking, and close seeking of minds associated with harm (vihiṃsā), the mind being manifest, extremely manifest, and presently manifest, the deliberation, planning, contemplation, and discrimination, all of which are called thoughts of harm. As the World-Honored One (Bhagavān, an epithet of the Buddha) said: ‘Evil thoughts subdue beings, causing them to see purity in impurity, greatly increasing greed and love, binding themselves with strong bonds.’ The three wholesome thoughts (kuśala-vitarka) are: thoughts of renunciation (nekkhamma-vitarka), thoughts of non-hatred (avyāpāda-vitarka), and thoughts of non-harm (avihiṃsā-vitarka). What are thoughts of renunciation? The answer is: contemplating the faults of thoughts of desire, namely that these thoughts of desire are unwholesome, and are believed and upheld by foolish people. All the Tathāgatas (Tathāgata, an epithet of the Buddha) and their disciples, virtuous and noble people, all despise and reject them, as they can cause harm to oneself, harm to others, harm to both, destroy wisdom, hinder the qualities of virtue, and obstruct nirvāṇa (nirvāṇa, the state of liberation from the cycle of rebirth). Upholding this dharma does not generate penetrating wisdom, does not lead to bodhi (bodhi, enlightenment), and does not realize nirvāṇa. When contemplating the faults of thoughts of desire in this way, the mental seeking, pervasive seeking, and close seeking, the mind being manifest, extremely manifest, and presently manifest, the deliberation, planning, contemplation, and discrimination, are called thoughts of renunciation. Furthermore, in order to abandon thoughts of desire, contemplating the merits of thoughts of renunciation, namely that thoughts of renunciation are supremely wholesome, and are believed and upheld by the most venerable ones, all the Tathāgatas and their disciples, virtuous and noble people, all praise them, as they do not cause harm to oneself, harm to others, harm to both, do not destroy wisdom, do not hinder the qualities of virtue, and do not obstruct nirvāṇa. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: Holding this Dharma can generate penetrating wisdom, can lead to Bodhi (enlightenment), and can realize Nirvana (extinction). When contemplating the merits of renunciation-seeking in this way, the various mental searches and discriminations are called 'renunciation-seeking'. Furthermore, contemplate desire-seeking as being like a disease, like a sore, like an arrow causing harm, as being impermanent, suffering, empty, and non-self, as being revolving, laborious, and weak, as being a law of decay, rapidly unceasing, decaying and not constant, unreliable and untrustworthy, as being a law of change. When contemplating various desire-seekings in this way, the various mental searches and discriminations are called 'renunciation-seeking'. Furthermore, in order to cut off desire-seeking, contemplate its cessation as true tranquility, contemplate the path to its cessation as true liberation. When contemplating cessation and the path in this way, the various mental searches and discriminations are called 'renunciation-seeking'. Furthermore, contemplate the equanimity-mind concentration and the path, the non-perception concentration corresponding to equanimity-mind concentration, the cessation concentration, and selective cessation. When contemplating in this way, the various mental searches and discriminations are called 'renunciation-seeking'. Furthermore, contemplate renunciation and the feelings, perceptions, volitions, and consciousness corresponding to renunciation, as well as the bodily and verbal actions and the mind-non-corresponding activities arising from them, the various mental searches and discriminations are called 'renunciation-seeking'. What is non-ill-will-seeking? Answer: Contemplate the faults of various ill-will-seekings, namely, that this ill-will-seeking is an unwholesome Dharma, believed, understood, and upheld by those who are wicked, and is jointly condemned and detested by all Tathagatas (Buddhas) and their disciples, virtuous and noble good people, capable of causing self-harm, capable of causing harm to others, capable of causing harm to both, capable of destroying wisdom, capable of hindering wholesome qualities, capable of obstructing Nirvana, and holding this Dharma cannot generate penetrating wisdom, cannot lead to Bodhi, and cannot realize Nirvana. When contemplating the faults of various ill-will-seekings in this way, the various mental searches, pervasive searches, near searches, the mind manifests, extremely manifests, presently manifests, speculating, measuring, conceiving, depicting, contemplating, and discriminating, are called 'non-ill-will-seeking'. Furthermore, in order to cut off ill-will-seeking, contemplate the merits of non-ill-will-seeking, namely, that non-ill-will-seeking is a supremely wholesome Dharma, believed, understood, and upheld by those who are noble and supreme, and is jointly praised by all Tathagatas and their disciples, virtuous and noble good people, incapable of causing self-harm, incapable of causing harm to others, incapable of causing harm to both, incapable of destroying wisdom, incapable of hindering wholesome qualities, incapable of obstructing Nirvana, and holding this Dharma can generate penetrating wisdom. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
