Samaṇamuṇḍikā Sutta

Sutta

Also known as Samaṇamaṇḍikā

一经讲述游方沙门郁伽诃摩那主张真正的胜利沙门只需身语意不作恶、以正当方式谋生即可,佛陀却指出照此定义连一个毫无能力的婴儿也可称为沙门,进而说明真正的成就标志在于圆满修习八正道并具足究竟的智慧与解脱。

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.
