60.Vuttañhetaṃ bhagavatā, vuttamarahatāti me sutaṃ –
|
§60. This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
|
|
|
"Tīṇimāni, bhikkhave, puññakiriyavatthūni.
|
“Monks, there are these three grounds for meritorious activity.
|
|
|
Dānamayaṃ puññakiriyavatthu, sīlamayaṃ puññakiriyavatthu, bhāvanāmayaṃ puññakiriyavatthu – imāni kho, bhikkhave, tīṇi puññakiriyavatthūnī"ti.
|
The ground for meritorious activity made of generosity, the ground for meritorious activity made of virtue, and the ground for meritorious activity made of development [meditation]. These are the three grounds for meritorious activity.”
|
|
|
Etamatthaṃ bhagavā avoca.
|
[This is the meaning of what the Blessed One said.]
|
|
|
Tatthetaṃ iti vuccati –
|
[So with regard to this it was said:]
|
|
|
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
|
[This, too, was the meaning of what was said by the Blessed One, so I have heard.]
