Kathaṃ paññāmahattato?
(5)怎样以大慧比较?
Ñ(VIII,21): How by comparison with those of great understanding? [234]
Lokanāthaṃ ṭhapetvāna, ye caññe atthi pāṇino;
Paññāya sāriputtassa, kalaṃ nāgghanti soḷasiṃ.
Evaṃ paññāmahattato anussaritabbaṃ.
Evaṃ nāma mahāpañño, paṭhamo aggasāvako;
Maraṇassa vasaṃ patto, mādisesu kathāva kāti.
[PTS 234] 除了世主之外,
他人的慧不及舍利弗的十六分之一,
这样大慧的第一上首弟子,
也为死征服,
如我这等人,
更有何言说。
如是以大慧比较而念死。
Ñ: The first of the two chief disciples
Did so excel in wisdom's art
That, save the Helper of the World,
No being is worth his sixteenth part.
But though so great was Sāriputta's
Understanding faculty,
He fell into death's power too;
What can be said of those like me?
It should be recollected in this way by comparison with those of great understanding.
