In this way the Radiant One with these verses frequently exhorted the venerable Rāhula.

Rāhulasutta

335 "Kacci abhiṇhasaṃvāsā,
nāvajānāsi paṇḍitaṃ;
Ukkādhāro manussānaṃ,
kacci apacito tayā".

336 "Nāhaṃ abhiṇhasaṃvāsā,
avajānāmi paṇḍitaṃ;
Ukkādhāro manussānaṃ,
niccaṃ apacito mayā".

337 "Pañca kāmaguṇe hitvā,
piyarūpe manorame;
Saddhāya gharā nikkhamma,
dukkhassantakaro bhava.

338 Mitte bhajassu kalyāṇe,
pantañca sayanāsanaṃ;
Vivittaṃ appanigghosaṃ,
mattaññū hohi bhojane.

339 Cīvare piṇḍapāte ca,
paccaye sayanāsane;
Etesu taṇhaṃ mākāsi,
mā lokaṃ punarāgami.

340 Saṃvuto pātimokkhasmiṃ,
indriyesu ca pañcasu;
Sati kāyagatā tyatthu,
nibbidābahulo bhava.

341 Nimittaṃ parivajjehi,
subhaṃ rāgūpasañhitaṃ;
Asubhāya cittaṃ bhāvehi,
ekaggaṃ susamāhitaṃ.

342 Animittañca bhāvehi,
Mānānusayamujjaha;
Tato mānābhisamayā,
Upasanto carissatī"ti.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ bhagavā āyasmantaṃ rāhulaṃ imāhi gāthāhi abhiṇhaṃ ovadatīti.

Rāhulasuttaṃ ekādasamaṃ.
