Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, as I have heard:
“Sampannasīlā, bhikkhave, viharatha sampannapātimokkhā; pātimokkhasaṁvarasaṁvutā viharatha ācāragocarasampannā aṇumattesu vajjesu bhayadassāvino; samādāya sikkhatha sikkhāpadesu.
“Bhikkhus, dwell being virtuous, |accomplished in the moral code of conduct::accomplished in the monastic code of discipline, accomplished in harmonious and pure conduct with others [pātimokkha]|. Dwell restrained by the restraint of this moral code of conduct, mindful of proper behavior and keeping to suitable places, seeing danger even in the slightest faults. Having undertaken this, train in the |training guidelines::the Buddha’s teaching instructions for an individual [sikkhāpada]|.
Sampannasīlānaṁ vo, bhikkhave, viharataṁ sampannapātimokkhānaṁ pātimokkhasaṁvarasaṁvutānaṁ viharataṁ ācāragocarasampannānaṁ aṇumattesu vajjesu bhayadassāvīnaṁ samādāya sikkhataṁ sikkhāpadesu, kimassa uttari karaṇīyaṁ?

Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
The Blessed One spoke on this matter. In this regard, it is said:
“Yataṁ care yataṁ tiṭṭhe,
yataṁ acche yataṁ saye;
Yataṁ samiñjaye bhikkhu,
yatamenaṁ pasāraye.
“Controlled while walking and while standing,
controlled while sitting and while lying down;
Controlled while bending back,
and controlled while stretching out;
Uddhaṁ tiriyaṁ apācīnaṁ,
yāvatājagatogati;
Samavekkhitā ca dhammānaṁ,
khandhānaṁ udayabbayaṁ.
Above, across, and below,
as far as the world extends;
There he carefully examines the nature of things,
with the arising and passing away of the aggregates.
Evaṁ vihārimātāpiṁ,
santavuttimanuddhataṁ;
Cetosamathasāmīciṁ,
sikkhamānaṁ sadā sataṁ;
Satataṁ pahitattoti,
āhu bhikkhuṁ tathāvidhan”ti.
Who remains persistent,
with a calm way of being, |unruffled::not agitated, not arrogant, not pompous [anuddhata]|;
Practicing correctly for the tranquility of mind,
ever mindful in training;
They call such a bhikkhu,
one who is continuously resolute.”
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
This matter too was spoken by the Blessed One, as I have heard.
