The Great Chapter - 96
“Yaṁ kiñci samudayadhammaṁ,
“Whatever has the nature of arising,
sabban-taṁ nirodhadhamman.”-ti
all that has the nature of ceasing.”
Te diṭṭhadhammā pattadhammā,
They, having seen the Dhamma, attained the Dhamma,
viditadhammā pariyogāḷhadhammā tiṇṇavicikicchā vigatakathaṁkathā
understood the Dhamma, penetrated the Dhamma, crossed over uncertainty, being
without doubts,
vesārajjappattā aparappaccayā Satthusāsane Bhagavantaṁ etad-avocuṁ:
having attained full confidence, having become independent of others in the
Teacher’s teaching, said this to the Gracious One:
“Labheyyāma mayaṁ Bhante Bhagavato santike pabbajjaṁ,
“May we receive the going-forth, venerable Sir, in the presence of the Gracious One,
labheyyāma upasampadan.”-ti
may we receive the full ordination.”
“Etha bhikkhavo” ti Bhagavā avoca “svākkhāto Dhammo,
“Come, monks,” said the Gracious One, “the Dhamma has been well-proclaimed,
caratha brahmacariyaṁ sammā dukkhassa antakiriyāyā.” ti
live the spiritual life for the complete ending of suffering.”
Sā va tesaṁ āyasmantānaṁ upasampadā ahosi.
That was these venerable ones’ full ordination.
Atha kho Bhagavā te bhikkhū Dhammiyā kathāya ovadi anusāsi.
Then the Gracious One gave advice and instruction with a Dhamma talk to those
monks.
Tesaṁ Bhagavatā Dhammiyā kathāya ovadiyamānānaṁ anusāsiyamānānaṁ
As the Gracious One gave advice and instruction with a Dhamma talk
anupādāya āsavehi cittāni vimucciṁsu,
their minds were liberated from the pollutants, without attachment,
tena kho pana samayena ekasaṭṭhi loke arahanto honti.
and at that time there were sixty-one Worthy Ones in the world.
