Paṭhamauppādasutta

Arising (1st)

Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

At Sāvatthī.

“Aṭṭhime, bhikkhave, dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā anuppannā uppajjanti, nāññatra tathāgatassa pātubhāvā arahato sammāsambuddhassa.

“Mendicants, these eight things don’t arise to be developed and cultivated except when a Realized One, a perfected one, a fully awakened Buddha has appeared.

Katame aṭṭha?

What eight?

Seyyathidaṁ—sammādiṭṭhi …pe… sammāsamādhi.

They are: right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion.

Ime kho, bhikkhave, aṭṭha dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā anuppannā uppajjanti, nāññatra tathāgatassa pātubhāvā arahato sammāsambuddhassā”ti.

These eight things don’t arise to be developed and cultivated except when a Realized One, a perfected one, a fully awakened Buddha has appeared.”

Catutthaṁ.
