貪欲的束縛 Bandhanagara Vatthu

 Bandhanagara Vatthu 




Dhammapada Verses 345 and 346 

Na tam dalham bandhanamahu dhira
yadayasam darujapabbajanca
sarattaratta manikundalesu
puttesu daresu ca ya apekkha.

Etam dalham bandhanamahu dhira
oharinam sithilam duppamuncam
etampi chetvana paribbajanti
anapekkhino kamasukham pahaya.

Verses 345 & 346: The wise do not say that bonds made of iron, of wood, and of hemp are strong bonds; they say that only passionate attachment to and care for gems and jewelry, children and wives are strong bonds. These drag one down (to lower planes of existence) and although they seem yielding are difficult to unfasten. The wise, cutting off this bond (of craving) and resolutely giving up sensual pleasures, renounce the world.

The Story on Imprisonment

While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verses (345) and (346) of this book, with reference to some thieves who were kept in chains.

One day, thirty bhikkhus came into Savatthi for alms-food. While they were on their alms-round, they saw some prisoners being brought out with their hands and legs in chains. Back at the monastery, after relating what they had seen in the morning, they asked the Buddha whether there were any other bonds stronger than these. To them the Buddha answered, "Bhikkhus! These bonds are nothing compared to those of craving for food and clothing, for riches and for family. Craving is a thousand times, a hundred thousand times stronger than those chains, hand-cuffs and cages. That is the reason why the wise cut off craving and renounce the world and enter the Order of the bhikkhus."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verses 345 & 346: The wise do not say that bonds made of iron, of wood, and of hemp are strong bonds; they say that only passionate attachment to and care for gems and jewelry, children and wives are strong bonds. These drag one down (to lower planes of existence) and although they seem yielding are difficult to unfasten. The wise, cutting off this bond (of craving) and resolutely giving up sensual pleasures, renounce the world.

貪欲的束縛


智者明白，鐵、木、或麻所作的束縛不夠堅固，對珠寶、裝飾、兒女或妻子的貪愛才是真正的束縛。 (偈 345 )

智者明白這些貪欲(註1)是堅牢的束縛，它們雖然外表看似鬆弛，但實際上卻難以解困。智者斷除這些貪欲，不再貪愛，而出離世間 (出家修行)。 (偈 346 )


　　一群比丘到舍衛城化緣時看見幾位手腳帶著鐐銬的囚犯。回到精舍後，他們向佛陀報告在舍衛城中的見聞， 他們問佛陀有沒有比鐐銬更束縛的東西。佛陀說：「比丘們！和對食物、衣服、財富和家庭的欲望比較，鐐銬真是微不足道的束縛。這些欲望比腳鐐 手銬和囚籠更堅固，這就是為什麼有智慧的人斷除欲望，棄絕世間，加入僧伽為比丘的原因。」


(註1) 指對珠寶、裝飾、兒女、妻子的貪愛。

(註2) 請參考「勇敢面對死亡的男人」的故事。

第二十四章 愛欲

ཉེར་བཞི་པ་སྲེད་པའི་ལེའུ། 


345. Na taṃ daḷhaṃ bandhanamāhu dhīrā,

yadāyasaṃ dārujapabbajañca;

Sārattarattā maṇikuṇḍalesu, 

puttesu dāresu ca yā apekkhā.

346. Etaṃ daḷhaṃ bandhanamāhu dhīrā,

ohārinaṃ sithilaṃ duppamuñcaṃ;

Etampi chetvāna paribbajanti, 

anapekkhino kāmasukhaṃ pahāya.


345-346. That is not a strong fetter, the wise say, which is made of iron, wood or hemp. But the infatuation and longing for jewels and ornaments, children and wives — that, they say, is a far stronger fetter, which pulls one downward and, though seemingly loose, is hard to remove. This, too, the wise cut off. Giving up sensual pleasure, and without any longing, they renounce the world.


345.智者不會說由鐵、木與繩造的束縛是堅強的；他們只會說迷戀金銀珠寶、妻子兒女之愛欲束縛才是堅強的。

346.智者知道，這些愛欲束縛，看似柔軟而實難解除，它們會拖人到惡趣去的；因此，智者斬斷愛欲束縛，堅決捨離欲樂，出家修行。


345.智者不会说由铁、木与绳造的束缚是坚强的；他们只会说迷恋金银珠宝、妻子儿女之爱欲束缚才是坚强的。

346.智者知道，这些爱欲束缚，看似柔软而实难解除，它们会拖人到恶趣去的；因此，智者斩断爱欲束缚，坚决舍离欲乐，出家修行。

Verse 392: If from somebody one should learn the Teaching of the Buddha, he should respectfully pay homage to that teacher, as a brahmin worships the sacrificial fire. The Story of Thera Sariputta While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (392) of this book, with reference to the Venerable Sariputta. The Venerable Sariputta was born of brahmin parents of Upatissa village; that was why he was named Upatissa. His mother was Sari. His very close friend was Kolita, another brahmin youth, son of Moggali.

First, they went to Sancaya, but they were not satisfied with his teaching. Then they wandered all over Jambudipa looking for a tea...
