2. Omasavādasikkhāpada

The training rule on abusive speech

Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.
At one time when the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery,

Tena kho pana samayena chabbaggiyā bhikkhū pesalehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ bhaṇḍantā pesale bhikkhū omasanti—
the monks from the group of six were arguing with and speaking abusively to the good monks.

jātiyāpi, nāmenapi, gottenapi, kammenapi, sippenapi, ābādhenapi, liṅgenapi, kilesenapi, āpattiyāpi; hīnenapi akkosena khuṁsenti vambhenti.
They reviled and insulted them about their caste, name, family, occupation, profession, illnesses, physical traits, defilements, and offenses, and by calling them names.

Ye te bhikkhū appicchā …pe… te ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
The monks of few desires complained and criticized them,

“kathañhi nāma chabbaggiyā bhikkhū pesalehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ bhaṇḍantā pesale bhikkhū omasissanti—
“How can the monks from the group of six argue with and abuse good monks?

jātiyāpi, nāmenapi, gottenapi, kammenapi, sippenapi, ābādhenapi, liṅgenapi, kilesenapi, āpattiyāpi; hīnenapi akkosena khuṁsessanti vambhessantī”ti.
How can they revile and insult them about these things?”

Atha kho te bhikkhū chabbaggiye bhikkhū anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ …pe…
After rebuking those monks in many ways, they told the Buddha. Soon afterwards he had the Sangha gathered and questioned the monks:

“saccaṁ kira tumhe, bhikkhave, pesalehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ bhaṇḍantā pesale bhikkhū omasatha—jātiyāpi …pe… hīnenapi akkosena khuṁsetha vambhethā”ti?
“Is it true, monks, that you’re doing this?”

“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.
“It’s true, Sir.”

Vigarahi buddho bhagavā …pe…
The Buddha rebuked them …

“kathañhi nāma tumhe, moghapurisā, pesalehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ bhaṇḍantā pesale bhikkhū omasissatha—
“Foolish men, how can you do this?

jātiyāpi …pe… hīnenapi akkosena khuṁsessatha vambhessatha.

Netaṁ, moghapurisā, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…
This will affect people’s confidence …”

vigarahitvā …pe…
After rebuking them …

dhammiṁ kathaṁ katvā bhikkhū āmantesi—
he gave a teaching and addressed the monks:

“Bhūtapubbaṁ, bhikkhave, takkasilāyaṁ aññatarassa brāhmaṇassa nandivisālo nāma balībaddo ahosi.
“Once upon a time, monks, there was a brahmin in Takkasilā who had an ox called Nandivisāla.

Atha kho, bhikkhave, nandivisālo balībaddo taṁ brāhmaṇaṁ etadavoca—
On one occasion the ox said to that brahmin,

‘gaccha tvaṁ, brāhmaṇa, seṭṭhinā saddhiṁ sahassena abbhutaṁ karohi—
‘Go, brahmin, and bet a thousand coins with the wealthy merchant that your ox will pull one hundred carts tied together.’

mayhaṁ balībaddo sakaṭasataṁ atibaddhaṁ pavaṭṭessatī’ti.

Atha kho, bhikkhave, so brāhmaṇo seṭṭhinā saddhiṁ sahassena abbhutaṁ akāsi—
And that brahmin did just that.

mayhaṁ balībaddo sakaṭasataṁ atibaddhaṁ pavaṭṭessatīti.

Atha kho, bhikkhave, so brāhmaṇo sakaṭasataṁ atibandhitvā nandivisālaṁ balībaddaṁ yuñjitvā etadavoca—
Then, after tying one hundred carts together and yoking Nandivisāla to them, he said,

‘gaccha, kūṭa, vahassu, kūṭā’ti.
‘Go, you fraud! Pull, you liar!’

Atha kho, bhikkhave, nandivisālo balībaddo tattheva aṭṭhāsi.
But Nandivisāla didn’t budge.

Atha kho, bhikkhave, so brāhmaṇo sahassena parājito pajjhāyi.
Then that brahmin became depressed because he had lost a thousand coins.

Atha kho, bhikkhave, nandivisālo balībaddo taṁ brāhmaṇaṁ etadavoca—
Nandivisāla said to him,

‘kissa tvaṁ, brāhmaṇa, pajjhāyasī’ti?
‘Why are you depressed?’

‘Tathā hi panāhaṁ, bho, tayā sahassena parājito’ti.
‘Because I lost one thousand coins because of you.’

‘Kissa pana maṁ tvaṁ, brāhmaṇa, akūṭaṁ kūṭavādena pāpesi?
‘But why did you disgrace me by calling me a fraud when I’m not?

Gaccha tvaṁ, brāhmaṇa, seṭṭhinā saddhiṁ dvīhi sahassehi abbhutaṁ karohi—
Now go, brahmin, and make the same bet with that merchant, but increase the stakes to two thousand coins.

“mayhaṁ balībaddo sakaṭasataṁ atibaddhaṁ pavaṭṭessatī”’ti.

‘Mā ca maṁ akūṭaṁ kūṭavādena pāpesī’ti.
Just don’t disgrace me by calling me a fraud.’

Atha kho, bhikkhave, so brāhmaṇo seṭṭhinā saddhiṁ dvīhi sahassehi abbhutaṁ akāsi—
Once again that brahmin did just that.

‘mayhaṁ balībaddo sakaṭasataṁ atibaddhaṁ pavaṭṭessatī’ti.

Atha kho, bhikkhave, so brāhmaṇo sakaṭasataṁ atibandhitvā nandivisālaṁ balībaddaṁ yuñjitvā etadavoca—
Then, after tying one hundred carts together and yoking Nandivisāla to them, he said,

‘gaccha, bhadra, vahassu, bhadrā’ti.
‘Go, good ox! Pull, good ox!’

Atha kho, bhikkhave, nandivisālo balībaddo sakaṭasataṁ atibaddhaṁ pavaṭṭesi.
And Nandivisāla pulled those one hundred carts.

Manāpameva bhāseyya,
‘One should say what’s pleasant,

nāmanāpaṁ kudācanaṁ;
Never what’s unpleasant.

Manāpaṁ bhāsamānassa,
Because of his pleasant speech,

garuṁ bhāraṁ udabbahi;
Heavy loads were pulled,

Dhanañca naṁ alābhesi,
And he obtained wealth;

tena cattamano ahūti.
And he was delighted with that.’

Tadāpi me, bhikkhave, amanāpā khuṁsanā vambhanā.
Even at that time, monks, reviling and insulting was unpleasant to me.

Kimaṅgaṁ pana etarahi manāpā bhavissati khuṁsanā vambhanā?
How then could reviling and insulting be pleasant now?

Netaṁ, bhikkhave, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…
This will affect people’s confidence …” …

evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—
“And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this:

“Omasavāde pācittiyan”ti.
‘If a monk speaks abusively, he commits an offense entailing confession.’”
