4.1.1 Tapokammasutta

Evaṃ me sutaṃ—  ekaṃ samayaṃ bhagavā uruvelāyaṃ viharati najjā nerañjarāya tīre ajapālanigrodhamūle paṭhamābhisambuddho. Atha kho bhagavato rahogatassa paṭisallīnassa evaṃ cetaso parivitakko udapādi—

“mutto vatamhi tāya dukkarakārikāya. Sādhu mutto vatamhi tāya anatthasaṃhitāya dukkarakārikāya. Sādhu vatamhi mutto bodhiṃ samajjhagan”ti.

Atha kho māro pāpimā bhagavato cetasā cetoparivitakkamaññāya yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṃ gāthāya ajjhabhāsi—

“Tapokammā apakkamma,
ye na sujjhanti māṇavā;
Asuddho maññasi suddho,
suddhimaggā aparaddho”ti.

Atha kho bhagavā “māro ayaṃ pāpimā” iti viditvā māraṃ pāpimantaṃ gāthāhi ajjhabhāsi—

“Anatthasaṃhitaṃ ñatvā,
yaṃ kiñci amaraṃ tapaṃ;
Sabbaṃ natthāvahaṃ hoti,
phiyārittaṃva dhammani.

Sīlaṃ samādhi paññañca,
Maggaṃ bodhāya bhāvayaṃ;
Pattosmi paramaṃ suddhiṃ,
Nihato tvamasi antakā”ti.

Atha kho māro pāpimā “jānāti maṃ bhagavā, jānāti maṃ sugato”ti, dukkhī dummano tatthevantaradhāyīti.
