Incredible Things About the Realized One (2nd)

Dutiyatathāgataacchariyasutta

EN
“Mendicants, with the appearance of a Realized One, the perfected one, the fully awakened Buddha, four incredible and amazing things appear. What four? People like clinging, they love it and enjoy it. Yet when a Realized One is teaching the Dhamma of non-clinging, they want to listen, they actively listen, and they try to understand.
PL
“Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, arahato sammāsambuddhassa pātubhāvā cattāro acchariyā abbhutā dhammā pātubhavanti. Katame cattāro? Ālayārāmā, bhikkhave, pajā ālayaratā ālayasammuditā; sā tathāgatena anālaye dhamme desiyamāne sussūsati sotaṁ odahati aññā cittaṁ upaṭṭhapeti.

Sā tathāgatena mānavinaye dhamme desiyamāne sussūsati sotaṁ odahati aññā cittaṁ upaṭṭhapeti. Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, arahato sammāsambuddhassa pātubhāvā ayaṁ dutiyo acchariyo abbhuto dhammo pātubhavati.

People like excitement, they love it and enjoy it. Yet when a Realized One is teaching the Dhamma of peace, they want to listen, they actively listen, and they try to understand.

Anupasamārāmā, bhikkhave, pajā anupasamaratā anupasamasammuditā. Sā tathāgatena opasamike dhamme desiyamāne sussūsati sotaṁ odahati aññā cittaṁ upaṭṭhapeti.
