阿羅漢沒有精神煩惱 Mahapanthakatthera Vatthu

Mahapanthakatthera Vatthu



Dhammapada Verse 407

Yassa rago ca doso ca
mano makkho ca patito
sasaporiva aragga
tamaham brumi brahmanam.

Verse 407: Him I call a brahmana, from whom passion, ill will, pride and detraction have fallen off like a mustard seed from the tip of an awl.

The Story of Thera Mahapanthaka

While residing at the Veluvana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (407) of this book, with reference to Thera Mahapanthaka, elder brother of Culapanthaka*.

Thera Mahapanthaka was already an arahat when his younger brother Culapanthaka joined the Order. Culapanthaka was born a dullard because he had made fun of a very dull bhikkhu in one of his past existences. Culapanthaka could not even memorize one verse in four months' time. Mahapanthaka was disappointed with his younger brother and asked him to leave the monastery as he was not worthy of the Order.

It was in this connection that, on one occasion, the bhikkhus asked the Buddha why Mahapanthaka, even though he was an arahat, turned his younger brother Culapanthaka out of the monastery. They also added "Do the arahats still lose their temper? Do they still have moral defilements like ill will in them?" To them the Buddha replied, "Bhikkhus! Arahats have no moral defilements like passion and ill will in them. My son Mahapanthaka acted as he did with a view to benefiting his brother and not out of ill will."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 407: Him I call a brahmana, from whom passion, ill will, pride and detraction have fallen off like a mustard seed from the tip of an awl.

 阿羅漢沒有精神煩惱 (註)


斷除所有的貪欲、瞋恚、驕慢和虛偽，如同芥子滑落針鋒的人，我稱之為婆羅門。 (偈 407)


　　摩訶槃特尊者在弟弟周利槃特出家為比丘時已經是阿羅漢了。他的弟弟周利槃特天生愚笨，因為某一前世時，他作弄一名非常愚笨的比丘， 所以今生他甚至在四個月內都無法記住一句偈語。摩訶槃特尊者因此建議他不如還俗。

　　後來，有些比丘針對摩訶槃特尊者對待弟弟的態度請教佛陀：「阿羅漢是否仍然會發脾氣？他們還有沒有精神上的煩惱如瞋念呢？

　　佛陀向他們解釋：「比丘們，阿羅漢沒有像貪欲和瞋念等煩惱。摩訶槃特尊者對待弟弟的態度是想幫他的忙，而不是瞋念。」


註：請參考「愚笨的周利槃特證得聖果」的故事
