“Or, sire, as if a man were afraid, terrified and shaking and confused in mind, but on getting free from there with effort and entering a steady, firm and unmoving place he would obtain the highest happiness there—even so, sire, does he who is practising rightly realize by means of proper attention the highest happiness, Nibbāna, fear and terror departed.

‘Or again, O king, as a man (fallen among enemies with drawn swords in their hands), quaking with fear and terror, agitated and upset in mind, when with a violent effort he has freed himself from them, and escaped into a strong refuge, a firm place of security, experiences supreme bliss—just so whosoever orders his life aright, he by his careful thinking will realise the supreme bliss of Nirvāṇa, in which fear and terror have been put away.

Или представь, государь, что человек находился в опасности, дрожал, трепетал и мысли его были в смятении и беспорядке. Напрягшись, он вырвался из опасного места, добрался до прочного, надежного, твердого, безопасного пристанища и счастлив тем безмерно. Вот точно так же, государь, истинно-делающий осуществляет своим подлинным вниманием нирвану, удаленную от опасностей и страхов.

Yathā, mahārāja, bhayaṃ, evaṃ jātijarābyādhimaraṇaṃ paṭicca aparāparaṃ pavattabhayaṃ daṭṭhabbaṃ; yathā bhīto puriso, evaṃ sammāpaṭipanno daṭṭhabbo; yathā abhayaṭṭhānaṃ, evaṃ nibbānaṃ daṭṭhabbaṃ.

As the fear, sire, so is the fear of repeated birth, ageing, disease and death to be considered. As the man who is afraid, so is he who is practising rightly to be understood. As the place where there is no fear, so is Nibbāna to be understood.
|
As the terror, O king, so should you regard the anxiety which arises again and again on account of birth, old age, disease, and death, as the terrified man the man who is ordering his life aright, as the place of refuge Nirvāṇa.
|
Здесь, государь, опасности следует уподоблять вновь и вновь возникающую опасность рождения, болезни, старости и смерти, человеку, попавшему в опасность, уподоблять истинно-делающего, безопасному пристанищу уподоблять нирвану.
