Sallasutta

574 Animittamanaññātaṃ,
maccānaṃ idha jīvitaṃ;
Kasirañca parittañca,
tañca dukkhena saṃyutaṃ.

575 Na hi so upakkamo atthi,
yena jātā na miyyare;
Jarampi patvā maraṇaṃ,
evaṃdhammā hi pāṇino.

576 Phalānamiva pakkānaṃ,
pāto patanato bhayaṃ;
Evaṃ jātāna maccānaṃ,
niccaṃ maraṇato bhayaṃ.

577 Yathāpi kumbhakārassa,
katā mattikabhājanā;
Sabbe bhedanapariyantā,
evaṃ maccāna jīvitaṃ.

578 Daharā ca mahantā ca,
ye bālā ye ca paṇḍitā;
Sabbe maccuvasaṃ yanti,
sabbe maccuparāyaṇā.

579 Tesaṃ maccuparetānaṃ,
gacchataṃ paralokato;
Na pitā tāyate puttaṃ,
ñātī vā pana ñātake.

580 Pekkhataṃyeva ñātīnaṃ,
passa lālapataṃ puthu;
Ekamekova maccānaṃ,
govajjho viya nīyati.

581 Evamabbhāhato loko,
Maccunā ca jarāya ca;
Tasmā dhīrā na socanti,
Viditvā lokapariyāyaṃ.

582 Yassa maggaṃ na jānāsi,
āgatassa gatassa vā;
Ubho ante asampassaṃ,
niratthaṃ paridevasi.

583 Paridevayamāno ce,
Kiñcidatthaṃ udabbahe;
Sammūḷho hiṃsamattānaṃ,
Kayirā ce naṃ vicakkhaṇo.

584 Na hi ruṇṇena sokena,
Santiṃ pappoti cetaso;
Bhiyyassuppajjate dukkhaṃ,
Sarīraṃ cupahaññati.

585 Kiso vivaṇṇo bhavati,
Hiṃsamattānamattanā;
Na tena petā pālenti,
Niratthā paridevanā.

586 Sokamappajahaṃ jantu,
Bhiyyo dukkhaṃ nigacchati;
Anutthunanto kālankataṃ,
Sokassa vasamanvagū.

587 Aññepi passa gamine,
Yathākammupage nare;
Maccuno vasamāgamma,
Phandantevidha pāṇino.

588 Yena yena hi maññanti,
Tato taṃ hoti aññathā;
Etādiso vinābhāvo,
Passa lokassa pariyāyaṃ.

589 Api vassasataṃ jīve,
Bhiyyo vā pana māṇavo;
Ñātisanghā vinā hoti,
Jahāti idha jīvitaṃ.

590 Tasmā arahato sutvā,
Vineyya paridevitaṃ;
Petaṃ kālankataṃ disvā,
Neso labbhā mayā iti.

591 Yathā saraṇamādittaṃ,
Vārinā parinibbaye;
Evampi dhīro sapañño,
Paṇḍito kusalo naro;
Khippamuppatitaṃ sokaṃ,
Vāto tūlaṃva dhaṃsaye.

592 Paridevaṃ pajappañca,
Domanassañca attano;
Attano sukhamesāno,
Abbahe sallamattano.

593 Abbūḷhasallo asito,
santiṃ pappuyya cetaso;
Sabbasokaṃ atikkanto,
asoko hoti nibbutoti.

Sallasuttaṃ aṭṭhamaṃ.
