生命中沒有究竟的滿足 Vajjiputtakabhikkhu Vatthu

Vajjiputtakabhikkhu Vatthu


Dhammapada Verse 302

Duppabbajjam durabhiramam
duravasa ghara dukha
dukkho' samanasamvaso
dukkhanupatitaddhagu
tasma na caddhagu siya
na ca dukkhanupatito siya.

Verse 302: It is hard to become a bhikkhu; it is hard to be happy in the practice of a bhikkhu. The hard life of a householder is painful; to live with those of a different temperament is painful. A traveller in samsara is continually subject to dukkha; therefore, do not be a traveller in samsara; do not be the one to be subject to dukkha again and again.

The Story of the Bhikkhu from the Country of the Vajjis

While residing at the Veluvana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (302) of this book, with reference to a bhikkhu from Vesali, a city in the country of the Vajjis.

On the night of the full moon day of Kattika, the people of Vesali celebrated the festival of the constellations (Nakkhatta) on a grand scale. The whole city was lit up, and there was much merry-making with singing, dancing, etc. As he looked towards the city, standing alone in the monastery, the bhikkhu felt lonely and dissatisfied with his lot. Softly, he murmured to himself, "There can be no one whose lot is worse than mine". At that instant, the spirit guarding the woods appeared to him, and said, "those beings in niraya envy the lot of the beings in the deva world; so also, people envy the lot of those who live alone in the woods." Hearing those words, the bhikkhu realized the truth of those words and he regretted that he had thought so little of the lot of a bhikkhu.

Early in the morning the next day, the bhikkhu went to the Buddha and reported the matter to him. In reply, the Buddha told him about the hardships in the life of all beings.

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 302: It is hard to become a bhikkhu; it is hard to be happy in the practice of a bhikkhu. The hard life of a householder is painful; to live with those of a different temperament is painful. A traveller in samsara is continually subject to dukkha; therefore, do not be a traveller in samsara; do not be the one to be subject to dukkha again and again.

At the end of the discourse the bhikkhu attained arahatship. 

生命中沒有究竟的滿足

出家修行的生活艱困，在家的生活痛苦，與不同心性的人共住痛苦，生死輪迴苦。所以不要再輪迴了，不要一再受苦！(偈 302)


　　十月和十一月間的月圓之夜，毗舍離城燈火通明，城裡的人大肆慶祝眾星雲集的節慶，祈求眾星不要降下災殃，他們高歌、狂舞，盡情享樂。這時候，有一位比丘站在精舍遠遠眺望城裡的一切。他感到一陣落寂，對自己的出家生活不滿，而喃喃自語道：「再沒有任何人的日子比我更糟糕了！」就在這剎那間，林子的守護靈現身在他面前，告訴他：「地獄眾生羨慕天神的命運，同理，城裡的人羨慕生活在林子裡的人（指修行的人）。」這比丘明白這道理後，後悔曾經如此看輕比丘的命運。

　　第二天一大早，他去向佛陀頂禮問訊，佛陀忠告他努力觀想世間的無常變化。佛陀也告誡他，一切眾生皆苦。

302. Duppabbajjaṃ durabhiramaṃ, 

durāvāsā gharā dukhā;

Dukkhosamānasaṃvāso, 

dukkhānupatitaddhagū;

Tasmā na caddhagū siyā, 

na ca dukkhānupatito siyā.


302. Difficult is life as a monk; difficult is it to delight therein. Also difficult and sorrowful is the household life. Suffering comes from association with unequals; suffering comes from wandering in samsara. Therefore, be not an aimless wanderer, be not a pursuer of suffering.


302.成為比丘是難得的，喜歡過比丘的生活是難得的；俗家的生活是痛苦的，與性格不合的人相處是痛苦的；在生死輪迴路上流浪的旅人會不斷受苦；因此，別作生死輪迴路上的旅人啊！別作不斷受苦的人啊！


302.成为比丘是难得的，喜欢过比丘的生活是难得的；俗家的生活是痛苦的，与性格不合的人相处是痛苦的；在生死轮回路上流浪的旅人会不断受苦；因此，别作生死轮回路上的旅人啊！别作不断受苦的人啊！
