Pancasatabhikkhu Vatthu



Dhammapada Verse 377

Vassika viya pupphani
maddavani pamuncati

vippamuncetha bhikkhavo.

Verse 377: O bhikkhus! As the jasmine (vassika) plant sheds its withered flowers, so also, should you shed passion and ill will.

The Story of Five Hundred Bhikkhus

While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (377) of this book, with reference to five hundred bhikkhus.

Five hundred bhikkhus from Savatthi, after taking a subject of meditation from the Buddha, set out for the forest to practise meditation. There, they noticed that the jasmine flowers which bloomed in the early morning dropped off from the plants onto the ground in the evening. Then the bhikkhus resolved that they would strive hard to free themselves from all moral defilements even before the flowers were shed from the plants. The Buddha, through his supernormal power, saw them from his Perfumed Chamber. He therefore sent forth his radiance to them and made them feel his presence. To them the Buddha said, "Bhikkhus! As the withered flower is shed from the plant, so also, should a bhikkhu strive to free himself from the round of rebirths."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 377: O bhikkhus! As the jasmin (vassika) plant sheds its withered flowers, so also, should you shed passion and ill will.

At the end of the discourse the five hundred bhikkhus attained arahatship.

觀想茉莉花


一如茉莉花枯萎凋落的花瓣，比丘也應該連根去除貪與瞋。 (偈 377)


　　一群舍衛城的比丘從佛陀那兒得到禪修的題目後，到森林裡去禪修。在森林裡，他們發現茉莉花雖然在白天盛開，但夜晚的時候花瓣就掉落了。他們有感於此，就下定決心要精進修行，使自己從所有煩惱中解脫出來，就像茉莉花掉落地面。

　　佛陀雖然不在他們身邊，但清楚他們的決心，就放光，告誡他們：

　　「比丘們！一如枯萎的花會掉落地面，比丘也應該精進，解脫世間苦。」

　　這群比丘正念現前地思考佛陀的教誨，後來終於證得阿羅漢果。
