Samaṇamuṇḍikā Sutta

Sutta

Also known as Samaṇamaṇḍikā

遍歴行者ウッガーハマーナが、真に勝利した沙門とは身口意で悪をなさず、非難の余地なく生計を立てる者に過ぎないと主張する経典で、仏陀はこの定義では無力な赤子さえ沙門になってしまうと指摘して退け、真の成就とは聖なる八正道の体得と完全な智慧と解脱であると説く。

v.l. Samaṇamaṇḍikā.– Pañcakaṅga, on his way to the Buddha, visits the wanderer (paribbājaka) Uggāhamāna-Samaṇamuṇḍikāputta at the Samayappavādaka in the Tindukācīra in the Mallikārāma. Uggāhamāna tells him that, in his view, the triumphant recluse is he who does no evil, says and thinks no evil, and earns his living in no evil way. Pañcakaṅga reports this to the Buddha, who says that, according to Uggāhamāna, a tiny babe on its back would be such a recluse! No, says the Buddha, the triumphant recluse is one who is an adept in the Noble Eightfold Path and in utter knowledge and in utter deliverance, and he goes on to describe such a recluse in detail. M.ii.22-9.
