[463] Therefore, bhikkhus, you should train thus: "We will be content (santuṭṭha) with any kind of robe (cīvara) whatsoever, and we will speak in praise of contentment with any kind of robe whatsoever; and for the sake of a robe we will not engage in a wrong search (anesanā), in what is unbefitting. Not having obtained a robe, we will not be agitated; and having obtained a robe, we will use it without being tied to it, uninfatuated, not blindly absorbed, seeing the danger (ādīnava) in it, understanding the escape (nissaraṇa) from it."
[Thus should all be done.]
"We will be content with any kind of almsfood (piṇḍapāta) whatsoever …" "We will be content with any kind of lodging (senāsana) whatsoever …" "We will be content with any kind of medicinal requisites for the sick (gilānapaccayabhesajjaparikkhāra) whatsoever, and we will speak in praise of contentment with any kind of medicinal requisites for the sick whatsoever; and for the sake of medicinal requisites for the sick we will not engage in a wrong search, in what is unbefitting. Not having obtained medicinal requisites for the sick, we will not be agitated; and having obtained medicinal requisites for the sick, we will use them without being tied to them, uninfatuated, not blindly absorbed, seeing the danger in them, understanding the escape from them." Thus indeed, bhikkhus, should you train.
For, bhikkhus, I will exhort you with the example of Kassapa, or with one who may be like Kassapa; and being exhorted, you should practise for such a state (tathattāya).
The first.
