| a1 | ... He exactly knew the snake’s thought, and this he told the community: [18b] |
|---|---|
| a1+ | This miserable snake ... (however at their word) |
| a2 | [18d] the Arhat went to the novice monk [and] proclaimed the law to him: Under the Buddha Kāśyapa both of you had (gone from the house) ... |
| a3 | ... About (your errors) you did not feel remorse, forgiveness you were not [giving]. [19d] You then both died. In five hundred births [you] killed each other. Now ... |
| a4 | ... as one having gone from the house to the Buddha, the Master, standing in the pure discipline, recognizing the good [and] the evil, now turn away from that snake! (At the word) of the whole (community) altogether ... |
| a5 | ... he renounced [the world]. [But] also in this birth there is on him the hate and the enmity towards the snake equally so; he did not let [it] go. [21d] This the snake knew, it does not forgive him. [Thinking] “out of anger he has [always] avoided me” it bite ... |
| a6 | With evil-minded spirit he came to the snake [and] and tore up the body of the snake. (Thus) the Arhat proclaimed: [22d] See, you venerable ones ... |
| a6 | ... he died. In one [and the same] moment he was [re]born as a mongoose. |
| a7 | Even the word of the whole community that one would not accept, he left my teaching. That snake desired with him the letting go of hate and enmity and lasting forgiveness. That one had gone from the house, [but] he could not ... |
| a8 | ... (There)upon many monks there felt world weariness [and] let the thought be fulfilled: hate and enmity is (not) ... |
| b1 | ... One must not let the (evil-minded) spirit go to another on, in whatever way. [23d] Through forgiveness of others ... |
| b2 | ... he is in other births; in hell, among animals and hungry ghosts he sees countless terrible sufferings. [24d] Whatever is his [moral] conduct or whatever is [his] meditation, [his] fervour and [his] insight, all (is through hate and enmity) from him ... |
| b3 | ... he reproaches, he urges (?). In many births he does a deed [that leads] to dissociation and vexation (?). Displeasure [and] misery without count he suffers here in the five kinds of existence. [25d] As (in) another time ... |
| b4 | ... In Śrāvastī a householder countlessly [often] was desirous of the birth of a son. Thereupon another being received birth in the womb of his wife. Immediately ... |
| b5 | [26d] She only needed the chance to find a sewer, she wanted to spread out there [and] gladly then eat the dung from the palm of [her] hand (like) honey and sugar ... |
| b6 | ... step by step she, as it were, the whole house was filled by the bad smell. [27d] In this boy, too, the desire arose to be eating urine [and] dung. his ... |
| b7 | ... (They gave?) him in the evening (?) miye and paṣkārro. Everything rained in this house. [28d] For three times at night the filth rained there. They bathed, they washed him ... |
| b8 | ... going the almsround. [29d] He acquired belief in the three jewels and evoked the wish: May I (achieve to go to the Buddha, from the house) ... |
Other
| a3 | In fünfhundert Geburten tötet ihr euch gegenseitig. (Schmidt 1974: 321) |
|---|---|
| a4 | ... als ein zu Buddha, dem Meister, aus dem Hause Gegangener, in der reinen Zucht Stehender, das Gute [und] Böse Erkennender, mach jetzt Abkehr von jener Schlange! (Schmidt 1974: 341) |
| b3 | In vielen Geburten tut er Tat zu Missmut(?) [und] Verdruss. (Schmidt 1974: 445) |
| b4 | In Śrāvastī a householder incessantly cherished the wish for the birth of a son. Then another being received birth in the womb of his wife. (cf : ii, 63) (Peyrot 2013b: 376) |
| b4 | In Śrāvastī hegte ein Haushalter (zahllos) [oft] den Wunsch nach der Geburt eines Sohnes. (Schmidt 1974: 154) |
| b4 | Darauf empfing dann ein anderes Wesen in dem Leibe seiner Frau die Geburt. (Schmidt 1974: 201) |
| b5 | Sie brauchte nur die Gelegenheit zu einer Kotgrube zu finden, [so] möchte sie sich dort hinstreuen [und] dann freudig den Kot auf [ihrer] Handfläche (wie) Honig und Zucker essen. (Schmidt 1974: 292) |
| b6 | Auch in diesem Knaben erhob sich die Begierde nach dem Essen von Harn [und] Kot. (Schmidt 1974: 75, 283) |
| b8 | Er erlangte den Glauben an die drei Juwelen [und] rief den Wunsch hervor: Möchte ich (erlangen, zum Buddha aus dem Hause zu gehen. (Schmidt 1974: 330-1) |
Commentary
Philological commentary
| Judging from their content, this and IOL Toch 109 would appear to be part of the Krodhavarga (XX). This text here includes strophes 18-30, while IOL Toch 109 includes strophes 12-20, thus partly overlapping in content. The metre is 4x17 syllables (rhythm = 6/6/5). | |
| n1 | Emendation according to Sieg and Siegling 1983: 77 fn. 3 based on IOL Toch 109 b4. |
| n2 | According to Sieg and Siegling 1983: 77 fn. 8 the Pāda is one syllable short. |
| n3 | According to Sieg and Siegling 1983: 78 fn. 4 alleksa stands for allek ksa. |
Remarks
| The original manuscript is missing, but was a somewhat larger fragment restored out of a number of smaller pieces, about 4/5 of the full length of the leaf. Damaged at all edges and margins, beginning and end missing. Lines a2-a4 correspond to lines b4-b6 of IOL Toch 109 (cf. Broomhead 1962: 176). |
Linguistic commentary
| n4 | The meaning of miye is uncertain. The same is true for paṣkārro which also appears in the Klosterrechnungen in Otani I.5, which lists the purchase of 3 lb. of kewye ṣalywe ‘suet’ for 150 lb. of grain and one of 4 lb. of paṣkarroṣe ṣalywe for 80 lb. of grain. Presumably, therefore, miye and paṣkārro are oleiferous fruit, which the boy is being fed according to Sieg and Siegling 1983: 212. |
