Dhammapada Verses 206, 207 and 208

Sahu dassanamariyanam
sannivaso sada sukho
adassanena balanam
niccameva sukhi siya.

Balasangatacari hi
dighamaddhana socati
dukkho balehi samvaso
amitteneva sabbada
dhiro ca sukhasamvaso
natinam va samagamo.

Tasma hi
dhiranca pannanca bahussutanca
dhorayhasilam vatavantamariyam
tam tadisam sappurisam sumedham
bhajetha nakkhattapathamva candima.

Verse 206: It is good to see the Noble Ones (ariyas); to live with them is always a pleasure; not seeing fools is also always a pleasure.

Verse 207: He who walks in the company of fools has to grieve for a long time. Association with fools is ever painful, as living with an enemy; association with the wise is a pleasure, as living with relatives.

Verse 208: Therefore one should follow a resolute, intelligent, learned, persevering and dutiful ariya; follow such a virtuous and wise man, as the moon follows the path of the stars.


The Story of Sakka

While residing at the village of Veluva, the Buddha uttered Verses (206), (207) and (208) of this book, with reference to Sakka, king of the devas.

About ten months before the Buddha realized parinibbana, the Buddha was spending the vassa at Veluva village near Vesali. While he was staying there, he suffered from dysentery. When Sakka learned that the Buddha was ailing, he came to Veluva village so that he could personally nurse the Buddha during his sickness. The Buddha told him not to worry about his health as there were many bhikkhus near him; but Sakka did not listen to him and kept on nursing the Buddha until he recovered.

The bhikkhus were surprised and awe-struck to find Sakka himself attending on the Buddha. When the Buddha heard their remarks he said, "Bhikkhus! There is nothing surprising about Sakka's love and devotion to me. Once, when the former Sakka was growing old and was about to pass away, he came to see me. Then, I expounded the Dhamma to him. While listening to the Dhamma, he attained Sotapatti Fruition; then he passed away and was reborn as the present Sakka. All these happened to him simply because he listened to the Dhamma expounded by me. Indeed, bhikkhus, it is good to see the Noble Ones (ariyas); it is a pleasure to live with them; to live with fools is, indeed, painful."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 206: It is good to see the Noble Ones (ariyas); to live with them is always a pleasure; not seeing fools is also always a pleasure.

 

Verse 207: He who walks in the company of fools has to grieve for a long time. Association with fools is ever painful, as living with an enemy; association with the wise is a pleasure, as living with relatives.

 

Verse 208: Therefore one should follow a resolute, intelligent, learned, persevering and dutiful ariya; follow such a virtuous and wise man, as the moon follows the path of the stars.

End of Chapter Fifteen: Happiness (Sukhavagga)

帝釋看護佛陀



值遇聖者是好事,與聖者同住是件喜樂的事,不見愚癡的人也是件喜樂的事。 (偈 206)


與愚癡的人為伍,會長期憂患,與愚癡的人為伍,如同與敵人為伍一般痛苦;與智者為伍,如同與親友同住般安樂。 (偈 207)


所以,人應該與聰明、智慧、多聞、堅定、善盡職責的聖者為伍,如同月亮追隨星辰的軌跡。 (偈 208)



     大約般涅槃前十個月,佛陀在毗舍離附近的鞞羅柧村結夏安居。那時候,他身染痢疾。帝釋知道佛陀身體不適,就親自前來照顧佛陀。佛陀告訴他不要費心,因為有很多比丘在身邊,但帝釋堅持要照顧佛陀,直到佛陀身體好轉。

     眾多比丘對帝釋親自照顧佛陀一事感到驚訝,也對他懍然敬畏。佛陀聽見眾多比丘的心聲後,告訴他們:「比丘們!帝釋親自照顧我這件事並沒有任何特別的地方。往生之前,他曾有機會聽聞我說法,因此了解佛法。去世之後,才往生成為現在的帝釋。而這一切,都是因為他曾經聽聞佛法,事實上,比丘們!得遇聖者是樁好事,與聖者共住令人喜悅。」


備註:雖然佛教徒崇拜帝釋並祈求他的祝福和保護,但佛陀在《幢頂經》中說帝釋尚未究竟解脫貪瞋癡和恐懼。儘管如此,佛教徒傳統上相信帝釋護持佛教。

བཅོ་ལྔ་པ་བདེ་བའི་ལེའུ། 


206. Sāhu dassanamariyānaṃ, 

sannivāso sadā sukho;

Adassanena bālānaṃ, 

niccameva sukhī siyā.

207. Bālasaṅgatacārī hi, 

dīghamaddhāna socati;

Dukkho bālehi saṃvāso, 

amitteneva sabbadā;

Dhīro ca sukhasaṃvāso, 

ñātīnaṃva samāgamo.

208. Tasmā hi –

Dhīrañca paññañca bahussutañca, 

dhorayhasīlaṃ vatavantamariyaṃ;

Taṃ tādisaṃ sappurisaṃ sumedhaṃ, 

bhajetha nakkhattapathaṃva candimā.


206. Good is it to see the Noble Ones; to live with them is ever blissful. One will always be happy by not encountering fools.

207. Indeed, he who moves in the company of fools grieves for longing. Association with fools is ever painful, like partnership with an enemy. But association with the wise is happy, like meeting one's own kinsmen.

208. Therefore, follow the Noble One, who is steadfast, wise, learned, dutiful and devout. One should follow only such a man, who is truly good and discerning, even as the moon follows the path of the stars.


206.得見聖者是值得慶幸的,與聖者相處常是樂事,不見愚者亦常是樂事。 

207.與愚者為伍必會長時苦惱。與愚者相處,像與仇人相處一樣,必會經常苦惱;與智者相處,像與親人相處一樣,會經常覺得快樂。

 

206.得见圣者是值得庆幸的,与圣者相处常是乐事,不见愚者亦常是乐事。 

207.与愚者为伍必会长时苦恼。与愚者相处,像与仇人相处一样,必会经常苦恼;与智者相处,像与亲人相处一样,会经常觉得快乐。

208.因此,应追随坚决的、有智慧学问的、有毅力及责任心的圣者。像月亮追随星星一样,应紧随着这类德智具备的圣者。


༢༠༦༽ འཕགས་པ་རྣམས་ནི་མཐོང་བ་ལེགས། །དེ་དག་དང་འགྲོགས་རྟག་ཏུ་བདེ། །བླུན་པོ་དག་དང་མ་ཕྲད་པས། །གང་ཞིག་རྒྱུན་དུ་བདེ་བར་འགྱུར། །

༢༠༧༽ བླུན་པོ་དག་དང་མཉམ་དུ་རྒྱུ། །དེ་ནི་ཡུན་རིང་སྡུག་བསྔལ་མྱོང་། །བླུན་པོར་འགྲོགས་པ་རྟག་ཏུ་གདུང་། །དཔེར་ན་དགྲ་བོའི་འཕྲོ་བ་བཞིན། །འོན་ཏེ་མཁས་པར་འགྲོགས་པ་བདེ། །དཔེར་ན་གཉེན་དང་ཕྲད་པ་བཞིན། །

༢༠༨༽ དེ་ཕྱིར་བརྟན་ཞིང་མཁས་ལ་སྦྱངས་པ་ཆེ། །ལས་དོན་ཅན་དང་དད་པ་ཅན་དང་ནི། །བློ་ལྡན་བཟང་པོ་ཡ་རབས་དམ་པ་རྣམས། །ཟླ་བ་སྐར་མའི་རྗེས་ལྟར་བསྟེན་པར་བྱ། །
