 Pancaggadayaka Brahmana Vatthu 


Dhammapada Verse 367 

Sabbaso namarupasmim
yassa natthi mamayitam
asata ca na socati
sa ve "bhikkhu" ti vuccati.

Verse 367: He who does not take the mind-and-body aggregate (nama-rupa) as "I and mine", and who does not grieve over the dissolution (of mind and body) is, indeed, called a bhikkhu.


The Story of the Giver of the First-Fruits of His Labour

While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (367) of this book, with reference to a brahmin who was in the habit of making five offerings of first-fruits in charity. The first-fruits here refer to the first-fruits of the field. The first-fruits of the field are given in charity at the time of harvesting, at the time of threshing, at the time of storing, at the time of cooking and at the time of filling the plate.

One day, the Buddha saw the brahmin and his wife in his vision and knew that time was ripe for the couple to attain Anagami Fruition. Accordingly, the Buddha set out for their house and stood at the door for alms food. The brahmin who was then having his meal, facing the interior part of the house, did not see the Buddha. His wife who was near him saw the Buddha, but she was afraid that if her husband saw the Buddha standing at the door for alms-food, he would offer all his rice in the plate and, in that case, she would have to cook again. With this thought in her mind, she stood behind her husband so that he would not see the Buddha; when she quietly stepped backwards and slowly came to where the Buddha was standing, and whispered to him, "Venerable Sir! We do not have any alms-food for you today." But the Buddha had decided not to leave the house; he just shook his head. Seeing this gesture, the brahmin's wife could not control herself and she burst out laughing.

At that instant, the brahmin turned round and saw the Buddha. At once he knew what his wife had done, and he cried out, "O you, my wretched wife! You have ruined me." Then, taking up his plate of rice, he approached the Buddha and apologetically requested, "Venerable Sir! Please accept this rice which I have partly consumed." To him the Buddha replied, "O brahmin! Any rice is suitable for me, whether it is not yet consumed, or is partly consumed, or even if it is the last remaining spoonful." The brahmin was very much surprised by the Buddha's reply; at the same time, it made him happy because his offer of rice was accepted by the Buddha. The brahmin next asked the Buddha by what standard a bhikkhu was judged and how a bhikkhu was defined. The Buddha knew that both the brahmin and his wife had already learned something about mind and body (nama-rupa); so he answered, "O brahmin! One who is not attached to mind and body is called a bhikkhu."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 367: He who does not take the mind-and-body aggregate (nama-rupa) as "I and mine", and who does not grieve over the dissolution (of mind and body) is, indeed, called a bhikkhu.

At the end of the discourse both the brahmin and his wife attained Anagami Fruition.

對於名色(身心)沒有「我」與「我所」的執著,不因困乏而哀愁的人,是真比丘。 (偈367)


  從前舍衛城中有位婆羅門,十分慷慨,經常布施佛陀和比丘。

  有一天,佛陀觀察得知該婆羅門夫婦將可證得三果,於是就走到他們家門口去。這時候,正在用餐的婆羅門並沒有看見佛陀,他的太太雖然看見佛陀,但害怕丈夫如果也看見佛陀的話,會把所有的餐點全部供養給佛陀,那麼她就要再煮一次。於是她就擋在 丈夫面前,防止他看見佛陀,然後慢慢地倒退到佛陀站的地方,輕聲告訴佛陀:「尊者!我們今天沒有食物可以供養。」但佛陀只是搖頭。這婆羅門太太看見佛陀如此,遂無法控制自己地爆笑出來。

  婆羅門看見太太的笑聲時過身來,就看見佛陀和太太在家門口,剎那間,他明白過來了而大聲叫道:「夫人,你真的毀了我!我們尊敬的老師到家門口時,妳就應該立 刻通知我,怎麼妳反而隱瞞我,真是大大的羞辱我了!」說著,他拿起裝有米飯的盤子,走到佛陀面前,歉意地懇請:「尊者!請接受我這已經吃了一部份的米飯。實在很抱 歉,供養你這種已經吃過的米飯。」

  佛陀告誡他:「婆羅門,任何供養品對我來說都很好,不管吃過與否。」

  這婆羅門非常高興佛陀能夠接受他的供養。他同時請教佛陀,如何界定比丘,以什 麼標準來評定比丘?佛陀明白他們對名色已經有相當的認識,就告訴他們:「婆羅門!不執著於身心的人就是比丘。」佛陀接著向他們說法。

   聽完佛陀的說法後,這對婆羅門夫婦證得三果。
