Bahuvedanīya Sutta
Sutta一经调解两位弟子对佛陀所说受有几种(二种或三种)的分歧,佛陀说明依不同分类方式二者皆为正确,并进一步指出感官欲乐远不及修习禅定所得的更殊胜安乐。
Pañcakaṅga asks Udāyī (Paṇḍita Udāyī, says MA.ii.629) how many kinds of feelings the Buddha mentions. Udāyi answers that there are three:
pleasant,
unpleasant and
indifferent.
Pañcakaṅga, however, insists that there are but two: pleasant and unpleasant. Ānanda, overhearing the conversation, reports it to the Buddha, who says that both Pañcakaṅga and Udāyi are correct because he himself classified feelings in various ways; sensual pleasures might be pleasant, but are not the highest pleasures; far better and more excellent are the pleasures enjoyed by a monk who develops the four jhānas, the plane of infinity of consciousness and the plane of nought.
M.i.396 ff; the Sutta is repeated at S.iv.223 ff., under the name of Pañcakaṅga Sutta.
