SATIPATTHANA SUTTA

Januari 29, 2016 admin

Thus have I heard:

1) At one time when the Bhagava was staying in the territory of the kuru, in Kammasadhana, a trading city Kuru clan. There the Lord said to the bhikkhus “Bhikkhus.”

“Yes, Bhante,” answered the bhikkhus.

Bhagava said: “Bhikkhus, there is only a way to purify beings, to overcome sorrow and lamentation, to end the suffering and grief, to go the right way, to reach the Nibbana, namely the four ‘Satipatthana’ (Foundation of Mindfulness).

What are those four?

Bhikkhus,

Para bhikkhu, in this case a bhikkhu must constantly do:

‘physical observations on the physical‘ (kaye kayanupassi), diligent, aware, self-controlled, overcome greed and sadness in him.
‘observation of the feelings through feelings‘ (vedanasuvedananupassi), tdiligent, aware, self-controlled, overcome greed and sadness in him.
‘observation of mind through the mind‘ (citte cittanupassi), diligent, aware, self-controlled, overcome greed and sadness in him.
‘observation of mental objects on the mental objects‘ (dhammesudhammanupassi), diligent, aware, self-controlled, overcome greed and sadness in him.

2) Bhikkhus, how does a bhikkhu constantly make an physical observations on the physical ‘?

In this case, a bhikkhu into the forest, go down a tree or to a lonely place; then he sat cross-legged with upright body and always aware of what he was doing.

Consciously he drew breath, consciously he exhale.
If he inhale a deep breath, he knows: I inhale a deep breath,
If he exhale a deep breath, he knows: I exhale a deep breath.
If he inhale a short breath, he knows: I inhale a short breath,
If he exhale a short breath, he knows: I exhale a short breath,
He trained himself with the thought: I’m going to inhale a breath that can be felt throughout the body.
He trained himself with the thought: I’m going to exhale a breath that can be felt throughout the body.
He trained himself with the thought: I will inhale a breath that will sooth the entire body activity.
He trained himself with the thought: I will exhale a breath that will sooth the entire body activity.
Like a skilled jug maker or his disciple, while making the long rounds, he knew: I made a long round.
If he make a short round, he knew: I made a short round.
Similarly, if a bhikkhu took a long breath, he knows: I took a deep breath;
Similarly, if he drew a short breath, he knows: I took a short breath.
He trained himself to think: I will inhale which can be felt throughout the body. … I would exhale that will relax the whole body activity.
Thus, he is constantly make an physical observations on the physical (ajjhatta)
He did a physical observation on the physical outside (bahiddha); or
He did a physical observation on the physical inside. Or
He did an observation of the process of the emergence of everything (samuda-yadhammanupassi) in the body;
He conducted observation of the disappearance of everything (vayadhammanupassi) in the body; or
He observed the process of the emergence and disappearance of everything in the body. Or
He thought: it’s Physical, observation takes place only on the knowledge that, just to remember, to live freely and without anything attached to the earth.

Thus, a bhikkhu constantly making observations on the physical body.

3) Bhikkhus,

If a bhikkhu walk, he realized: I walk;
If he stand still, he realized: I stand still;
If he sit down, he realized: I sit; or
If he lay down, he realized: I lay down.
So, in any body position he realized that such a position.
Thus, he is constantly doing physical observations on the physical inside (ajjhatta);
He does physical observation on physical outside (bahiddha); or
He does physical observation inside and out. Or
He observes the process of the emergence of everything (samuda-yadhammanupassi) in the body;
He observes the process of the disappearance of everything (vayadhammanupassi) in the body; or
He observes the process of the emergence and disappearance of everything in the body. Or
He thinks : it’s physical, his observation takes place only for the knowledge, just to remember, to live freely and without any attachment to anything in the world.

Thus, a bhikkhu constantly making physical observations on the physical.

4) Bhikkhus, a bhikkhu realized as well if he runs forward or backward; if he is looking forward or looking around … if he bent or straightened his body … if he membawasanghati (outer robe), bowl and civara … if he was eating, drinking, chewing, tasting … if he defecating or urinating … when he was walking, standing, sitting, lying down, get up, talk, silence, he realized these movements.

Thus, he is constantly doing physical observations on the physical inside (ajjhatta);
He does physical observation on physical outside (bahiddha); or
He does physical observation inside and out. Or
He observes the process of the emergence of everything (samuda-yadhammanupassi) in the body;

5) Bhikkhus, likewise, a bhikkhu brood (paccavekkhati) what the body is, wrapped in skin and covered by a variety of dirt, from the feet upwards and from the crown of the head down, that: There is a physical relationship with body hair, head hair, nails, teeth, skin, flesh, tendons, bones, marrow, kidneys, heart, liver, membranes, spleen, lungs, intestines, the lining of the intestines, stomach, feces, bile, phlegm, pus, blood, sweat, fat, tears, skin oil, saliva, mucus, synovial fluid and urine.

Bhikkhus, like a sack that has two open spots (mouth) that contains a full assortment of grains, such as fields rice, paddy rice, red beans, peas, sesame and rice; then a sharp edged pour the grains out, with the muses: it’s field paddy, it’s rice paddy, it’s red beans, it’s peas, it’s sesame and it’s rice.

6) Bhikkhus, likewise, a bhikkhu contemplates this body consistent with how the body was placed or formed, this body is composed of four elements, namely: In this body there is the element of solid, liquid, fire and air.

Bhikkhus, like a skilled butcher or his disciple, after slaughtering a cow, perhaps he sat down and showed the cow carcass at a crossroads; likewise, a bhikkhu contemplating this body is consistent with how the body was placed or formed, this body is composed of four elements, namely: In this body there is the element of solid, liquid, fire and air.

Or he observes the process of the emergence of everything (samuda-yadhammanupassi) in the body; he observes the process of the disappearance of everything (vayadhammanupassi) in the body; or he observes the process of the emergence and disappearance of everything in the body.

11) Bhikkhus, how does a bhikkhu constantly observes feeling through feeling (vedanasuveda–nanupassi)?

Bhikkhus, in this matter:

when he experienced a pleasant feeling, he realized: I had a pleasant feeling;
when he suffered a painful feeling, he realized: I had a painful juice;

When he experienced painful feelings associated with non–material, he realized: I experienced painful feelings associated with non-material
When he experienced feelings that is neither painful nor pleasant related to non–material, he realized: I had a feeling that is neither painful nor pleasant related to non–material.

Thus, he observes feeling through feeling inside (ajjhatta); he observes feeling through feeling outside (bahiddha); or he observes feeling through feeling on the outside and inside. Or he does observation of the ‘process of emergence of everything’ (samuda-yadhammanupassi) in the feelings: he does observation on ‘the disappearance of everything’ (vayadhammanupassi) in the feeling; or he does observations of the ‘process of the emergence and disappearance of everything‘ in the feeling.
