阿羅漢不執著感官欲樂 Uppalavanna Theri Vatthu

Uppalavanna Theri Vatthu

Dhammapada Verse 401

Vari pokkharapatteva
araggeriva sasapo
yo na limpati kamesu
tamaham brumi brahmanam.

Verse 401: Him I call a brahmana, who does not cling to sensual pleasures, just as water does not cling to a lotus leaf, or the mustard seed to the tip of an awl.

The Story of Theri Uppalavanna*

While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (401) of this book, with reference to Theri Uppalavanna.

Once, some bhikkhus were talking about the arahat Theri Uppalavanna being molested by the young Nanda who was then swallowed up by the earth. In this connection, they asked the Buddha whether arahats do not enjoy sensual pleasures as they have the same physical make-up like any other people. To them the Buddha replied, "Bhikkhus! Arahats do not enjoy sensual pleasures; they do not indulge in sensual pleasures, for they do not cling to objects of sense and to sensual pleasures, just as water does not cling to the lotus leaf or the mustard seed to the tip of an awl."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 401: Him I call a brahmana, who does not cling to sensual pleasures, just as water does not cling to a lotus leaf, or the mustard seed to the tip of an awl.

* This story is the continuation of the story given in Verse 69: The Story of Theri Uppalavanna, Chapter V.

阿羅漢不執著感官欲樂


如同蓮葉上的水滴，針鋒上的芥子，不染著愛欲的人，我稱之為婆羅門 (偈 401)


　　 一些比丘在討論蓮花色阿羅漢比丘尼被一年輕男子強暴的事情。他們請教佛陀，阿羅漢是否享受感官欲樂？ 佛陀回答他們：「比丘們！阿羅漢不享受感官欲樂，他們也不會沉溺於感官欲樂，因為他們不執著於六塵和感官欲樂，就好像水不黏著於蓮花的葉子一樣。」
