Ghoṭamukha Sutta

Sutta

부처님이 열반하신 뒤 비구 우데나가 바라문 고타무카에게 네 종류의 고행자—자신을 괴롭히는 자, 남을 괴롭히는 자, 둘 다 괴롭히는 자, 아무도 괴롭히지 않는 자—를 설명하는 대화를 기록한 경으로, 갈애를 넘어 사는 마지막 부류를 고타무카가 진정으로 올바른 사문으로 인정한다.

Records a conversation between Udena Thera and Ghoṭamukha at Khemiyambavana, after the Buddha’s death. Ghoṭamukha maintains that there is a recluse who might be called righteous (dhammiko paribbājo). Does Udena know of him? Udena describes to him the four types of individuals — those who torture themselves, those who torture others, those who torture both and those who torture neither, the last being those who live beyond appetites, consummate, unfevered and blissful. They want none of the things after which men hanker, but discarding them all go forth to homelessness. Ghoṭamukha admits that such are righteous recluses. M.ii.157 ff.
