 Punnadasi Vatthu 


Dhammapada Verse 226

Sada jagaramananam
ahorattanusi kkhinam
nibbanam adhimuttanam
attham gacchanti asava.

Verse 226: In those who are ever vigilant, who by day and by night train themselves in the three sikkhas (i.e., sila, samadhi and panna), and who have their mind directed towards Nibbana, moral intoxicants become extinct.

The Story of Punna, the Slave Girl

While residing at the Gijjhakuta mountain, the Buddha uttered Verse (226) of this book, with reference to a slave girl in Rajagaha.

One night, Punna the slave girl was up pounding rice for her master. As she got tired she rested for a while. While resting, she saw Thera Dabba leading some bhikkhus to their respective monasteries on their return from listening to the Dhamma. The girl seeing them up so late, pondered, "I have to be up at this late hour because I am so poor and have to work hard. But, why are these good people up at this late hour? Maybe a bhikkhu is sick, or are they being troubled by a snake?"

Early in the morning the next day, Punna took some broken rice, soaked it in water and made a pan-cake out of it. Then, intending to eat it at the riverside she took her cheap, coarse pan-cake along with her. On the way, she saw the Buddha coming on an alms-round. She wanted to offer her pan-cake to the Buddha, but she was not sure whether the Buddha would condescend to eat such cheap, coarse pan-cake. The Buddha knew her thoughts. He accepted her pan-cake and asked Thera Ananda to spread the small mat on the ground. The Buddha sat on the mat and ate the pan-cake offered by the slave girl. After eating, the Buddha called Punna to him and answered the question which was troubling her. Said the Buddha to the slave girl, "Punna, you cannot go to sleep because you are poor and so have to work hard. As for my sons the bhikkhus, they do not go to sleep because they have to be always vigilant and ever mindful."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 226: In those who are ever vigilant, who by day and by night train themselves in the three sikkhas (i.e., sila, samadhi and panna), and who have their mind directed towards Nibbana, moral intoxicants become extinct.

At the end of the discourse Punna attained Sotapatti Fruition.

時時保持醒覺，日夜勤勉修學，並且志向涅槃的人，息滅所有的煩惱。 (偈 226)


　　一天夜晚，女奴璞娜仍在為她的主人樁米，但實在太疲倦了，所以就稍為休息一會 兒。這時候，她瞥見達帕尊者帶領一群剛才聽完說法的比丘回到個人的房間去。她看見 他們這麼晚仍然未睡眠，心中想著：「我是因為太可憐，必須一直工作，才會這麼晚還 未得安憩。他們那些修行人為什麼也這麼晚還不休憩呢？也許他們其中有人生病或者他 們有什麼困擾吧。」

　　第二天清晨，璞娜把一些米浸在水中，然後拿來做糕餅，做完之後，她帶著這些粗 糙的糕餅，打算到河邊去吃。路上，她看見佛陀正在化緣，她心中嘀咕著：「前些日子 我遇見佛陀時，手上沒任何東西可以供養，但當我有東西可以供養時，又遇不著他。今 天，我遇見他，碰巧手上也有這些糕餅，但不知他可願意吃這麼粗糙的糕餅嗎？」佛陀 明白他的心念，就接受他的糕餅，並且要阿難在地上舖席墊，佛陀就坐在席墊上，進食 璞娜供養的糕餅。進食後，佛陀為璞娜澄清心中的疑惑：「妳沒有時間睡眠，因為妳必 須努力工作。至於比丘們，他們必須經常保持醒覺、正念現前，所以才晚睡。不管什麼 身份，人都應保持醒覺，正念現前，不可怠惰。」

　　細細思量佛陀的話後，璞娜深深理解佛法。
