中部36經/薩遮迦大經(雙大品[4])(莊春江譯)
被我這麼聽聞：
有一次，
世尊住在毘舍離大林
重閣講堂。
當時，世尊午前時已穿好衣服，拿起衣鉢後，想要
為了托鉢進入毘舍離。
那時，徒步狀態散步、漫步的尼乾陀子薩遮迦去大林重閣講堂。
尊者阿難看見正從遠處到來的尼乾陀子薩遮迦。看見後，對世尊說這個：
「
大德！這位辯論家、賢智的演說者、被眾人認定善的尼乾陀子薩遮迦到來，大德！這位想要誹謗
佛陀，想要誹謗法，想要誹謗
僧團，大德！請世尊
出自憐愍坐片刻，
那就好了！」
世尊坐在已設置的座位上。
那時，尼乾陀子薩遮迦去見世尊。抵達後，與世尊一起互相問候。交換應該被互相問候的友好交談後，在一旁坐下。在一旁坐下的尼乾陀子薩遮迦對世尊說這個：(364)
「
喬達摩尊師！有一些沙門婆羅門住於致力
身的修習之實踐，非心的修習，喬達摩尊師！他們接觸身體的苦受。喬達摩尊師！從前，有被身體的苦受接觸者竟然會有腿的麻痺，竟然也會有心臟裂開，竟然熱血也會從口中湧出，也會到達瘋狂、心的散亂，喬達摩尊師！他的這個心是身的隨行者，以身的控制轉起，那是什麼原因？心的未被修習狀態。喬達摩尊師！又，有一些沙門婆羅門住於致力心的修習之實踐，非身的修習，喬達摩尊師！他們接觸心的苦受。喬達摩尊師！從前，有被心的苦受接觸者竟然會有腿的麻痺，竟然也會有心臟裂開，竟然熱血也會從口中湧出，也會到達瘋狂、心的散亂，喬達摩尊師！他的這個身是心的隨行者，以心的控制轉起，那是什麼原因？身的未被修習狀態。喬達摩尊師！我這麼想：『喬達摩尊師的弟子們確實住於致力心的修習之實踐，非身的修習。』」(365)
「
阿其威色那！但，被你聽到身的修習究竟是什麼？」
「即：難陀婆蹉、居色澀居者、末迦利瞿舍羅，喬達摩尊師！從這些裸行者、
脫離正行者、舔手者、
受邀不來者、
受邀不住立者，他們受用非帶來的、非被個別招請的、非邀請的。他們不從甕口領受，不從鍋口領受，非門檻中間、非棍棒中間、非杵中間、非正在吃的兩人、非從孕婦、非從授乳女、非從與男子生活女、非在饑饉時被收集的食物處、非狗出現的場所、非蒼蠅群集的場所。非魚、非肉，飲非榖酒、非果酒、非酸粥。他們是一家一口團食者，或是二家二口團食者……（中略）或是七家七口者。以一處施物維生，也以二處施物維生……（中略），也以七處施物維生。一天吃一餐，也二天吃一餐……（中略）也七天吃一餐，像這樣，也半個月像這樣形色的，他們於致力定期吃食物的實踐。」
「阿其威色那！但，他們就只以那些維生嗎？」
「喬達摩尊師！這確實不是。喬達摩尊師！有時他們嚼一一上妙的硬食，吃一一上妙的食物、嚐一一上妙的美食，喝一一上妙的飲料，他們使這個身體的力氣
拿起、增加、增肥。」
「阿其威色那！凡他們先前捨斷後，之後積聚，這樣身體有積累、減少。阿其威色那！但，被你聽到心的修習究竟是什麼？」
當尼乾陀子薩遮迦被世尊詢問心的修習時，不解說。(366)
那時，世尊對尼乾陀子薩遮迦說這個：
「阿其威色那！凡即使這個先前被你說身的修習者，那個在聖者之律中也不是如法的身的修習，阿其威色那！即使對身的修習你不知道，你又將從哪裡知道心的修習呢？阿其威色那！此外，關於身未修習者與心未修習者；身已修習者與心已修習者，你要聽！你要
好好作意！我將說。」
「是的，尊師！」尼乾陀子薩遮迦回答世尊。
世尊說這個：(367)
「阿其威色那！而怎樣是身未修習者與心未修習者呢？阿其威色那！這裡，
未聽聞的一般人的樂受生起，當他被樂受接觸時，成為樂的有貪染者與來到樂的有貪染狀態。他的那個樂受被滅，以樂受的滅，苦受生起。當他被苦受接觸時，悲傷、疲累、悲泣、搥胸地號哭，來到迷亂。阿其威色那！他的這個已生起的樂受以身的未修習狀態
持續遍取心，已生起的苦受也以心的未修習狀態持續遍取心。阿其威色那！凡任何有這樣的兩翼者：已生起的樂受以身的未修習狀態持續遍取心，已生起的苦受也以心的未修習狀態持續遍取心，阿其威色那！這樣是身未修習者與心未修習者。(368)
阿其威色那！而怎樣是身已修習者與心已修習者呢？阿其威色那！這裡，
有聽聞的聖弟子的樂受生起，當他被樂受接觸時，不成為樂的有貪染者與不來到樂的有貪染狀態。他的那個樂受被滅，以樂受的滅，苦受生起。當他被苦受接觸時，不悲傷、不疲累、不悲泣、不搥胸地號哭，不來到迷亂。阿其威色那！他的這個已生起的樂受以身的已修習狀態不持續遍取心，已生起的苦受以心的已修習狀態不持續遍取心。阿其威色那！凡任何有這樣的二翼者：已生起的樂受以身的已修習狀態不持續遍取心，已生起的苦受以心的已修習狀態不持續遍取心，阿其威色那！這樣是身已修習者與心已修習者。」(369)
「這樣，我對喬達摩尊師是
淨信者：喬達摩
尊師確實是身已修習者與心已修習者。」
「阿其威色那！確實這冒犯的、誹謗的言語被你說，但我將回答你：阿其威色那！自從我剃除髮鬚、裹上
袈裟衣後，
從在家出家成為無家者，『確實那個我的已生起的樂受持續遍取心，或已生起的苦受持續遍取心。』
這不存在可能性。」
「確定喬達摩尊師像那樣的樂受不生起，像那樣已生起的樂受不持續遍取心嗎？確定喬達摩尊師像那樣的苦受不生起，像那樣已生起的苦受不持續遍取心嗎？」(370)
「阿其威色那！怎麼會不是呢？阿其威色那！這裡，當就在我
正覺以前，還是未
現正覺的
菩薩時想這個：『居家生活是障礙，是塵垢之路；
出家是露地。以居住的家，這是不容易行
一向圓滿、一向清淨的
磨亮海螺的梵行，讓我剃除髮鬚、裹上袈裟衣後，從在家出家成為無家者。』阿其威色那！那個我過些時候當正值年輕，黑髮的青年，具備青春的幸福，在人生初期時，即使父母是不願意的、淚滿面的、哭泣的，仍剃除髮鬚、裹上袈裟衣後，
從在家出家成為無家者。成為這樣出家者的他什麼是善的尋求者，遍求無上殊勝寂靜境界的我去見阿拉勒-葛拉麼。抵達後，對阿拉勒-葛拉麼說這個：『葛拉麼
道友！我想要在這法、律中行梵行。』阿其威色那！在這麼說時，阿拉勒-葛拉麼對我說這個：『尊者請住，這個法是像這樣有智的男子不久就以證智自作證自己老師的[教義]後，
進入後住於之處。』阿其威色那！那個我僅不久就迅速地學得那個法，阿其威色那！那個我就只那些以唇誦(動嘴唇)程度、以複誦(一再說)程度說
智語與上座語，且我連同其他人自稱：『我知道，我看見。』阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『阿拉勒-葛拉麼非只以信的程度告知：「以證智自作證後，我進入後住於這個法。」阿拉勒-葛拉麼確實住於知道著、看見著這個法。』[MN.26, 277段]
阿其威色那！那時，我去見阿拉勒-葛拉麼。抵達後，對阿拉勒-葛拉麼說這個：『葛拉麼道友！到什麼程度你告知：「以證智自作證後，我進入後住於這個法。」呢？』阿其威色那！在這麼說時，阿拉勒-葛拉麼告知
無所有處。阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『非只阿拉勒-葛拉麼有信，我也有信；非只阿拉勒-葛拉麼有活力，我也有活力；非只阿拉勒-葛拉麼有念，我也有念；非只阿拉勒-葛拉麼有定，我也有定；非只阿拉勒-葛拉麼有慧，我也有慧，讓我：凡法阿拉勒-葛拉麼告知「以證智自作證後，我進入後住於」的，為了那個法的作證努力。』阿其威色那！那個我僅不久就迅速地以證智自作證後，進入後住於那個法。
阿其威色那！那時，我去見阿拉勒-葛拉麼。抵達後，對阿拉勒-葛拉麼說這個：『葛拉麼道友！這個情形，你告知以證智自作證後，進入後住於那個法嗎？』『道友！這個情形，我告知以證智自作證後，進入後住於那個法。』『道友！這個情形，我也以證智自作證後進入而住於此法。』『道友！是我們的利得，道友！是我們的善得的：凡我們看見像這樣
同梵行的尊者。像這樣，凡法我告知以證智自作證後進入的，那個法你以證智自作證後，進入後住於；凡法你以證智自作證後，進入後住於的，那個法我告知以證智自作證後進入。像這樣，凡我知道法，那個法你知道；凡你知道法，那個法我知道。像這樣，無論我是什麼樣的，你[就]是像那樣的；無論你是什麼樣的，我[就]是就像那樣的。道友！來！現在，正是兩個的，令我們照顧這個群眾。』阿其威色那！像這樣，是我的老師的阿拉勒-葛拉麼置是徒弟的我與自己平等的，且以偉大的供養尊敬我。阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『這個法不對
厭、不對
離貪、不對
滅、不對寂靜、不對證智、不對
正覺、不對涅槃轉起，最多只有無所有處的往生。』阿其威色那！那個我對那個法產生(作)不滿足的後，從那個法厭後離開。(371)
阿其威色那！那個我是什麼是善的尋求者，當遍求無上殊勝的寂靜境界時，去見巫大葛-辣麼之子。抵達後，對巫大葛-辣麼之子說這個：『道友！我想要在這法、律中行梵行。』阿其威色那！在這麼說時，巫大葛-辣麼之子對我說這個：『尊者請住，這個法是像這樣有智的男子不久就以證智自作證自己老師的後，進入後住於之處。』阿其威色那！那個我僅不久就迅速地學得那個法，阿其威色那！那個我就只那些以唇誦程度、以複誦程度說智語與上座語，且我連同其他人自稱：『我知道，我看見。』阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『辣麼非只以信的程度告知：「以證智自作證後，我進入後住於這個法。」辣麼確實住於知道著、看見著這個法。』
阿其威色那！那時，我去見巫大葛-辣麼之子。抵達後，對巫大葛-辣麼之子說這個：『道友！到什麼程度辣麼告知：「以證智自作證後，我進入後住於這個法。」呢？』阿其威色那！在這麼說時，巫大葛-辣麼之子告知
非想非非想處。阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『非只辣麼有信，我也有信；非只辣麼有活力，我也有活力；非只辣麼有念，我也有念；非只辣麼有定，我也有定；非只辣麼有慧，我也有慧，讓我：凡法辣麼告知「以證智自作證後，我進入後住於」的，為了那個法的作證努力。』阿其威色那！那個我僅不久就迅速地以證智自作證後，進入後住於那個法。
阿其威色那！那時，我去見巫大葛-辣麼之子。抵達後，對巫大葛-辣麼之子說這個：『道友！這個情形，辣麼告知以證智自作證後，進入後住於那個法嗎？』『道友！這個情形，辣麼告知以證智自作證後，進入後住於那個法。』『道友！這個情形，我也以證智自作證後進入而住於此法。』『道友！是我們的利得，道友！是我們的善得的：凡我們看見像這樣同梵行的尊者。像這樣，凡辣麼告知以證智自作證後進入的，那個法你以證智自作證後，進入後住於；凡法你以證智自作證後，進入後住於的，那個法辣麼告知以證智自作證後進入。像這樣，凡法辣麼證知的，那個法你知道；凡法你知道的，那個法辣麼證知。像這樣，無論我是什麼樣的，你[就]是像那樣的；無論你是什麼樣的，我[就]是就像那樣的。道友！來！現在，請你照顧這個群眾。』阿其威色那！像這樣，是我的同梵行者的巫大葛-辣麼之子置我在老師的位置，且以偉大的供養尊敬我。阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『這個法不對厭、不對離貪、不對滅、不對寂靜、不對證智、不對正覺、不對涅槃轉起，最多只有非想非非想處的往生。』阿其威色那！那個我對那個法產生不滿足的後，從那個法厭後離開。(372)
阿其威色那！那個我是什麼是善的尋求者，當遍求無上殊勝的寂靜境界時，在摩揭陀
次第進行遊行地抵達優樓頻螺的謝那鎮，在那裡，看見能被喜樂的土地：清淨的叢林，與透明流動的、能被喜樂的、美麗堤岸的河，以及附近有
托鉢的村落。阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『
先生！確實是能被喜樂的土地：清淨的叢林，與透明流動的、能被喜樂的、美麗堤岸的河，以及附近有托鉢的村落，對欲求勤奮的善男子，這確實是對勤奮適合的。』阿其威色那！那個我就在那裡坐下：『這對勤奮是適合的。』(373)
阿其威色那！然後，有三個在以前前所未聞的，
不可思議的譬喻在我心中出現：阿其威色那！猶如有濕的、帶汁的、放置在水中的柴，那時，男子拿起
取火的上鑽木後到來：『我將使火生起，我將顯現火。』阿其威色那！你怎麼想它：是否那位男子對那個濕的、帶汁的、放置在水中的柴，拿起取火的上鑽木後，當鑽磨時，使火生起，顯現火呢？」
「喬達摩尊師！這確實不是，那是什麼原因？喬達摩尊師！因為那個是濕的、帶汁的柴，而且它是放置在水中的。還有，那位男子最終只會是疲勞的、苦惱的
有分者。」
「同樣的，阿其威色那！凡任何沙門或婆羅門住於以身連同心未從諸欲遠離，且凡他們的在諸欲上
欲的意欲、欲愛、欲迷、欲渴、欲的熱惱，而那個自身內的沒被完全捨斷、沒被完全止息，即使那些沙門婆羅門尊者感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，他們仍不能夠有智、見、無上正覺。即使那些沙門婆羅門尊者沒感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，他們仍不能夠有智、見、無上正覺，阿其威色那！這是第一個在以前前所未聞的，不可思議的譬喻在我心中出現。(374)
阿其威色那！其次，又第二個在以前前所未聞的，不可思議的譬喻在我心中出現：阿其威色那！猶如有濕的、帶汁的、放置在遠離水陸地處的柴，那時，男子拿起取火的上鑽木後到來：『我將使火生起，我將顯現火。』阿其威色那！你怎麼想它：是否那位男子對那個濕的、帶汁的、放置在遠離水陸地處的柴，拿起取火的上鑽木後，當鑽磨時，使火生起，顯現火呢？」
「喬達摩尊師！這確實不是，那是什麼原因？喬達摩尊師！因為那是濕的、帶汁的柴，即使是放置在遠離水陸地處的。還有，那位男子最終只會是疲勞的、苦惱的有分者。」
「同樣的，阿其威色那！凡任何沙門或婆羅門住於以身連同心已從諸欲遠離，但，凡他們的在諸欲上欲的意欲、欲愛、欲迷、欲渴、欲的熱惱，而那個自身內的沒被完全捨斷、沒被完全止息，即使那些沙門婆羅門尊者感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，他們仍不能夠有智、見、無上正覺。即使那些沙門婆羅門尊者沒感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，他們仍不能夠有智、見、無上正覺，阿其威色那！這是第二個在以前前所未聞的，不可思議的譬喻在我心中出現。(375)
阿其威色那！其次，又第三個在以前前所未聞的，不可思議的譬喻在我心中出現：阿其威色那！猶如有乾枯的、無生氣的、放置在遠離水陸地處的柴，那時，男子拿起取火的上鑽木後到來：『我將使火生起，我將顯現火。』阿其威色那！你怎麼想它：是否那位男子對那個乾枯的、無生氣的、放置在遠離水陸地處的柴，拿起取火的上鑽木後，當鑽磨時，使火生起，顯現火呢？」
「是的，喬達摩尊師！那是什麼原因？喬達摩尊師！因為那是乾枯的、無生氣的柴，而且它是放置在遠離水陸地處的。」
「同樣的，阿其威色那！凡任何沙門或婆羅門住於以身連同心已從諸欲遠離，且凡他們的在諸欲上欲的意欲、欲愛、欲迷、欲渴、欲的熱惱，而那個自身內的被完全捨斷、被完全止息，即使那些沙門婆羅門尊者感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，他們仍能夠有智、見、無上正覺。即使那些沙門婆羅門尊者沒感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，他們仍能夠有智、見、無上正覺，阿其威色那！這是第三個在以前前所未聞的，不可思議的譬喻在我心中出現。阿其威色那！這是三個在以前前所未聞的，不可思議的譬喻在我心中出現。(376)
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我以[上]牙齒放置在[下]牙齒後，以舌接觸上顎後，以心抑止、壓迫、
破壞心。』阿其威色那！那個我以牙齒放置在牙齒後，以舌接觸上顎後，以心抑止、壓迫、破壞心。阿其威色那！當那個我以牙齒放置在牙齒後，以舌接觸上顎後，以心抑止、壓迫、破壞心時，汗被從腋窩流出。阿其威色那！猶如有力氣的男子對較弱男子在頭捉住後或在肩膀捉住後，抑止、壓迫、破壞。同樣的，阿其威色那！當我以牙齒放置在牙齒後，以舌接觸上顎後，以心抑止、壓迫、破壞心時，汗被從腋窩流出。又，我的活力已被發動將成為不退縮的，
念已現起成為不忘失的。還有，當成為被勤奮征服者時，我的身體就以那個勤奮之苦成為暴躁的、不安息的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的苦受也不持續遍取心。(377)
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我就修無呼吸禪。』阿其威色那！那個我從口與從鼻抑止呼吸。阿其威色那！當那個我從口與從鼻在已抑止呼吸時，從耳孔出去的風有激烈的聲音。阿其威色那！猶如當鐵匠嘎啦嘎啦吹火時有激烈的聲音。同樣的，阿其威色那！當我從口與從鼻在已抑止呼吸時，從耳孔出去的風有激烈的聲音。又，我的活力已被發動將成為不退縮的，念已現起成為不忘失的。還有，當成為被勤奮征服者時，我的身體就以那個勤奮之苦成為暴躁的、不安息的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的苦受也不持續遍取心。
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我就修無呼吸禪。』阿其威色那！那個我從口、從鼻、從耳抑止呼吸。阿其威色那！當那個我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，激烈的風在頭上切割。阿其威色那！猶如有力氣的男子以銳利的刀刃在頭上切割。同樣的，阿其威色那！當那個我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，激烈的風在頭上切割。又，我的活力已被發動將成為不退縮的，念已現起成為不忘失的。還有，當成為被勤奮征服者時，我的身體就以那個勤奮之苦成為暴躁的、不安息的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的苦受也不持續遍取心。
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我就修無呼吸禪。』阿其威色那！那個我從口、從鼻、從耳抑止呼吸。阿其威色那！當那個我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，在頭上有激烈的頭痛。阿其威色那！猶如有力氣的男子以堅固的皮繩在頭上
給與纏頭巾。同樣的，阿其威色那！當我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，在頭上有激烈的頭痛。又，我的活力已被發動將成為不退縮的，念已現起成為不忘失的。還有，當成為被勤奮征服者時，我的身體就以那個勤奮之苦成為暴躁的、不安息的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的苦受也不持續遍取心。
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我就修無呼吸禪。』阿其威色那！那個我從口、從鼻、從耳抑止呼吸。阿其威色那！當那個我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，激烈的風切開腹部。阿其威色那！猶如熟練的屠牛夫或屠牛夫的徒弟，以銳利的牛刀切開腹部。同樣的，阿其威色那！當我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，激烈的風切開腹部。又，我的活力已被發動將成為不退縮的，念已現起成為不忘失的。還有，當成為被勤奮征服者時，我的身體就以那個勤奮之苦成為暴躁的、不安息的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的苦受也不持續遍取心。
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我就修無呼吸禪。』阿其威色那！那個我從口、從鼻、從耳抑止呼吸。阿其威色那！當那個我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，在身體裡有激烈的熱病。阿其威色那！猶如兩位有力氣的男子對較弱男子在不同的手臂上捉住後，在炭火坑上燒、遍燒。同樣的，阿其威色那！當我從口、從鼻、從耳在已抑止呼吸時，在身體裡有激烈的熱病。又，我的活力已被發動將成為不退縮的，念已現起成為不忘失的。還有，當成為被勤奮征服者時，我的身體就以那個勤奮之苦成為暴躁的、不安息的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的苦受也不持續遍取心。
阿其威色那！甚至天神們看見我後這麼說：『沙門喬達摩已命終。』一些天神這麼說：『沙門喬達摩非已命終，但命終。』一些天神這麼說：『沙門喬達摩非已命終，也非命終，沙門喬達摩是
阿羅漢，那個阿羅漢的住處就是像這樣。』(378)
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我走向所有食物的斷絕。』阿其威色那！那時，天神們來見我後，說這個：『
親愛的先生！你不要走向所有食物的斷絕，親愛的先生！如果你將走向所有食物的斷絕，我們將從你的毛孔為你灌入天的營養素，你將以那個維生。』阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『如果我自稱為全面斷食者，同時這些天神又從我的毛孔灌入天的營養素，我以那個維生，那是我的虛妄。』阿其威色那！那個我拒絕那些天神，我說：『夠了！』(379)
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『讓我每次一點點地、每次少量地吃食物，不論綠豆汁，或不論扁豆汁，或不論大豆汁，或不論碗豆汁。』阿其威色那！那個我每次一點點地、每次少量地吃食物，不論綠豆汁，或不論扁豆汁，或不論大豆汁，或不論碗豆汁。阿其威色那！當那個我每次一點點地、每次少量地吃食物，不論綠豆汁，或不論扁豆汁，或不論大豆汁，或不論碗豆汁時，身體到達極度消瘦。猶如阿溪底葛(哈密瓜?)的節或黑葛藤的節，同樣的，我的肢節以僅那樣少的食物狀態確實是；猶如駱駝的腳，同樣的，我的臀部以僅那樣少的食物狀態確實是；猶如紡錘的連鎖，同樣的，我的隆起凹下脊椎以僅那樣少的食物狀態確實是；猶如老會堂的
椽成為腐壞的，同樣的，我的肋骨以僅那樣少的食物狀態確實成為腐壞的；猶如來到深的、很深的
水光在深井中被看見，同樣的，我的瞳孔以僅那樣少的食物狀態確實來到深的、很深的在眼窩中被看見；猶如新鮮切下的苦瓜被風熱收縮枯萎，同樣的，我的頭皮被僅那樣少的食物狀態確實收縮枯萎。
阿其威色那！那個我：『我將觸摸腹部皮膚。』我就緊捉住脊椎骨；『我將觸摸脊椎骨。』我就緊捉住腹部皮膚，阿其威色那！以僅那樣少的食物狀態我的腹部皮膚被黏到脊椎骨；阿其威色那！那個我：『我要大便或小便。』以僅那樣少的食物狀態就在那裡臉向下倒下；阿其威色那！那個我就為了那個身體的蘇息以手順序摩擦肢體，阿其威色那！當那個我以手順序摩擦肢體時，以僅那樣少的食物狀態根腐爛的毛從身體落下[MN.12, 158段]。阿其威色那！以至於人們看見我後這麼說：『沙門喬達摩是黑的。』一些人這麼說：『沙門喬達摩不是黑的，沙門喬達摩是黑褐色的。』一些人這麼說：『沙門喬達摩不是黑的，也不是黑褐色的，沙門喬達摩有金色的皮膚。』阿其威色那！確實到那樣程度，以那樣少的食物狀態，我遍純淨的、皎潔的膚色已被破壞。(380)
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『凡任何過去世的沙門或婆羅門感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，這就是最高的，沒有比這個更高的；凡任何
未來世的沙門或婆羅門將感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，這就是最高的，沒有比這個更高的，凡任何現在的沙門或婆羅門感受劇烈的、苦的、激烈的、猛烈的、強烈的感受，這就是最高的，沒有比這個更高的，但，以這辛辣的難行我沒到達
足以為聖者智見特質的
過人法，會有其它覺的道路嗎？』
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『然而，我記得(證知)坐在父親釋迦族的工作田埂處閻浮樹蔭下，就從離諸欲後，從離諸不善法後，
進入後住於有尋、有伺，
離而生喜、樂的初禪，這會是覺的道路嗎？』阿其威色那！
那個我有念隨行識：『這就是覺的道路。』阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『我為何害怕那個樂：凡從諸欲之外、從諸不善法之外的樂呢？』阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『我不害怕那個樂：凡從諸欲之外、從諸不善法之外的樂。』(381)
阿其威色那！那個我這麼想：『以這樣到達極度消瘦的身體不容易到達那個樂，讓我吃飯粥固體的食物。』阿其威色那！那個我吃飯粥固體的食物。阿其威色那！當時，有侍奉我的五比丘：『凡沙門喬達摩將證得(到達)法者，那個，他將告知我們。』阿其威色那！當我吃飯粥固體的食物，那時，那些五比丘嫌厭後，離開我：『沙門喬達摩成為奢侈的、迷失勤奮的、來到奢侈的。』(382)
阿其威色那！那個我吃飯粥固體的食物後，取力氣後，就從離諸欲後，從離諸不善法後，我進入後住於有尋、有伺，離而生喜、樂的初禪，阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的樂受不持續遍取心；從尋與伺的平息，
自身內的明淨，
心的專一性，我進入後住於無尋、無伺，定而生喜、樂的第二禪，阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的樂受不持續遍取心；從喜的
褪去、住於
平靜、有念正知、以身體感受樂，我進入後住於這聖弟子宣說：『他是平靜、具念、
住於樂者』的第三禪，阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的樂受不持續遍取心；從樂的捨斷與從苦的捨斷，就在之前諸喜悅、憂的滅沒，我進入後住於不苦不樂，
平靜、念遍純淨的第四禪，阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的樂受不持續遍取心。(383)
那個我在心是這樣入定的、遍純淨的、淨化的、無穢的、離
隨雜染的、柔軟的、
適合作業的、住立的、到達
不動的時，使心轉向前世住處回憶智。我回憶(隨念)許多前世住處，即：一生……（中略）像這樣，我回憶許多
有行相的、有境遇的前世住處，阿其威色那！這是在
初夜時被我到達的第一明：
無明已破壞，明已生起；黑闇已破壞，光明已生起，如那位住於不放逸者的、熱心者的、自我努力者的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的樂受不持續遍取心。(384)
那個我在心是這樣入定的、遍純淨的、淨化的、無穢的、離隨雜染的、柔軟的、適合作業的、住立的、到達不動的時，使心轉向眾生死亡往生智，我以清淨、超越常人的天眼看見死沒往生的眾生：下劣的、勝妙的，美的、醜的，善去的、惡去的，知道依業到達的眾生：……（中略）阿其威色那！這是在中夜時被我到達的第二明：無明已破壞，明已生起；黑闇已破壞，光明已生起，如那位住於不放逸者的、熱心者的、自我努力者的。阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的樂受不持續遍取心。(385)
那個我在心是這樣入定的、遍純淨的、淨化的、無穢的、離隨雜染的、柔軟的、適合作業的、住立的、到達不動的時，使心轉向
諸漏的滅盡智。那個我如實證知：『這是苦。』如實證知：『這是苦
集。』如實證知：『這是苦
滅。』如實證知：『這是導向苦
滅道跡。』如實證知：『這些是漏。』如實證知：『這是漏集。』如實證知：『這是漏滅。』如實證知：『這是導向漏滅道跡。』當那個我這樣知、這樣見時，心從欲漏被解脫，心也從有漏被解脫，心也從
無明漏被解脫。在解脫時，
有『[這是]解脫』之智，我證知：『
出生已盡，
梵行已完成，
應該被作的已作，
不再有此處[輪迴]的狀態。』阿其威色那！這是在後夜時被我到達的第三明：無明已破壞，明已生起；黑闇已破壞，光明已生起，如那位住於不放逸者的、熱心者的、自我努力者的。[MN.85, MN.100]阿其威色那！像這樣，我的已生起的樂受不持續遍取心。(386)
阿其威色那！又，我記得為好幾百個團體教導法，甚至每一位確實這麼想：『沙門喬達摩就關於我教導法。』阿其威色那！但這不應該被看作這樣，如來頂多為了令知道為他人教導法，阿其威色那！那個我就在那個談論的完結時，就使內心
安頓、平靜，作專一、集中在那個先前我經常住的
定相上。」
「對喬達摩尊師，這是可信的，正如那是屬於阿羅漢、遍正覺者的那樣。但喬達摩尊師記得為白天睡覺者嗎？」
「阿其威色那！我記得在夏季最後一個月，
餐後已從施食返回，使
大衣摺疊四折後，以右脅為具念、正知的進入睡眠者。」
「喬達摩尊師！一些沙門婆羅門說這是關於迷妄住處。」
「阿其威色那！非只這個程度是癡昧或不癡昧，阿其威色那！此外，關於癡昧或不癡昧，你要聽！你要好好作意！我將說。」
「是的，尊師！」尼乾陀子薩遮迦回答世尊。
世尊說這個： (387)
「阿其威色那！凡任何污染的、
再有的、有恐懼的、苦果報的、未來生老死的諸
漏未被捨斷者，我說那是『癡昧』，阿其威色那！因為以諸漏的未捨斷成為癡昧者。阿其威色那！凡任何污染的、再有的、有恐懼的、苦果報的、未來生老死的諸漏已被捨斷者，我說那是『不癡昧』，阿其威色那！因為以諸漏的捨斷成為不癡昧者。
阿其威色那！凡污染的、再有的、有恐懼的、苦果報的、未來生老死的諸漏被如來捨斷，根已被切斷，
[如]已斷根的棕櫚樹，
成為非有，
為未來不生之物。阿其威色那！猶如頂端已切斷的棕櫚樹不能夠再成為生長處。同樣的，阿其威色那！凡污染的、再有的、有恐懼的、苦果報的、未來生老死的諸漏被如來捨斷，根已被切斷，[如]已斷根的棕櫚樹，成為非有，為未來不生之物。」(388)
在這麼說時，尼乾陀子薩遮迦對世尊說這個：
「不可思議啊！喬達摩尊師！
未曾有啊！喬達摩尊師！這是那樣程度地多：當喬達摩尊師這樣一再攻擊後被說、以諸誹謗的語法被說話時，膚色遍清潔連同臉色明朗，正如那是屬於阿羅漢、遍正覺者的那樣。喬達摩尊師！我記得對富蘭那迦葉是以論說從事論說者，即使被我以論說從事論說，他
轉向無關的，帶到在外的談論，顯露憤怒、瞋恚、不滿，但，當喬達摩尊師這樣一再攻擊後被說、以諸誹謗的語法被說話時，膚色遍清潔連同臉色明朗，正如那是屬於阿羅漢、遍正覺者的那樣。喬達摩尊師！我記得對末迦利瞿舍羅……（中略）對阿夷多翅舍欽婆羅……浮陀迦旃延……對散惹耶毘羅梨子……對尼乾陀若提子是以論說從事論說者，即使被我以論說從事論說，他轉向無關的，帶到在外的談論，顯露憤怒、瞋恚、不滿，但，當喬達摩尊師這樣一再攻擊後被說、以諸誹謗的語法被說話時，膚色遍清潔連同臉色明朗，正如那是屬於阿羅漢、遍正覺者的那樣。好了，喬達摩尊師！而現在我們離開(走)，我們有許多工作、許多應該被做的。」
「阿其威色那！現在是那個
你考量的時間。」
那時，尼乾陀子薩遮迦歡喜、
隨喜世尊所說後，從座位起來後離開。
薩遮迦大經第六終了。
