Bahuvedanīya Sutta
Sutta一經調解兩位弟子對佛陀所說受有幾種(二種或三種)的分歧,佛陀說明依不同分類方式二者皆為正確,並進一步指出感官欲樂遠不及修習禪定所得的更殊勝安樂。
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.
