Dhammapada Verse 164

Yo sasanam arahatam
ariyanam dhammajivinam
patikkosati dummedho
ditthim nissaya papikam
phalani katthakasseva
attaghataya phallati.

Verse 164: The foolish man who, on account of his wrong views, scorns the teaching of homage-worthy Noble Ones (Ariyas) who live according to the Dhamma is like the bamboo which bears fruit for its own destruction.

The Story of Thera Kala

While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (164) of this book, with reference to Thera Kala.

Once in Savatthi, an elderly woman was looking after a Thera named Kala, like her own son. One day hearing from her neighbours about the virtues of the Buddha, she wished very much to go to the Jetavana monastery and listen to the discourses given by the Buddha. So she told Thera Kala about her wishes; but the thera advised her against it. Three times she spoke to him about her wishes but he always dissuaded her. But one day, in spite of his dissuasion, the lady decided to go. After asking her daughter to look to the needs of Thera Kala she left the house. When Thera Kala came on his usual round of alms-food, he learned that the lady of the house had left for the Jetavana monastery. Then he reflected, "It is quite possible that the lady of this house is losing her faith in me." So, he made haste and quickly followed her to the monastery. There, he found her listening to the discourse being given by the Buddha. He approached the Buddha respectfully, and said, "Venerable Sir! This woman is very dull; she will not be able to understand the sublime Dhamma; please teach her only about charity (dana) and morality (sila)."

The Buddha knew very well that Thera Kala was talking out of spite and with an ulterior motive. So he said to Thera Kala, "Bhikkhu! Because you are foolish and because of your wrong view, you scorn my Teaching. You yourself are your own ruin; in fact, you are only trying to destroy yourself."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 164: The foolish man who, on account of his wrong views, scorns the teaching of homage-worthy Noble Ones (Ariyas) who live according to the Dhamma is like the bamboo which bears fruit for its own destruction.

At the end of the discourse the elderly lady attained Sotapatti Fruition.

嫉妒的比丘


愚癡的人因為邪見，而輕蔑阿羅漢、聖者和正直者的教誨；他們如同格他格竹(註)，因為造作惡業而招致滅亡。 (偈 164)


　　從前，舍衛城中有一位老婦人，像照顧自己兒子般地照顧卡拉比丘。有一天，她聽鄰居提及佛陀的德行之後，希望前往祇樹給孤獨園去聽佛陀說法，於是就向卡拉比丘提出她的願望，但卡拉比丘前後三次都打消她的念頭。有一天，老婦人不理睬卡拉比丘的反對，直接前往祇樹給孤獨園。當卡拉比丘發現老婦人已經前往精舍時，內心自私地想著：「如果她確實聽聞佛陀講經說法，就不會再照顧我了。」所以他也趕忙到祇樹給孤獨園去。當他抵達時，發現老婦人正在聽佛陀說法。他於是恭敬地靠近佛陀，並且告訴佛陀：「世尊！這位老婦人非常愚笨，請您只教她有關布施和持戒的佛法。」

　　佛陀知道卡拉比丘懷有惡意，而且有一己之私的用意，就告誡他：「你的愚癡和邪見污辱了佛法。你不過是自取其辱罷了。」


註：「格他格竹」指蘆葦一類的植物，結實則亡。
