List of Abbreviations
 

    The first segment of
this sentence is appam pi ce saṃhitaṃ bhāsamāno (even if [he] recites a
little of scriptures). The subject of this sentence is omitted, implying a
personal pronoun (which comes in the last clause). The verb is bhāsamāno
(which is the medium present participle in nominative singular). The object is
the word saṃhitaṃ (scripture, accusative singular) with its attribute
appam (a little, accusative singular). There are two particles pi
(even) and ce (if).

    The next segment is
dhammassa hoti anudhammacārī ([he] lives in truth according to the
Dharma). The subject here is again an omitted personal pronoun. The verb is
hoti (is, 3rd person, singular, active, indicative, present tense). The
object anudhammacārī (living in truth, nominative singular) has an
attribute dhammassa (of the Dharma, according to the Dharma, genitive
singular).

    Third segment is
rāgañ ca dosañ ca pahāya mohaṃ. Again, the subject (personal pronoun) is
omitted. As the verb serves the gerund pahāya. There is a triple object
rāgañ, dosañ, mohaṃ (lust, hatred, delusion, respectively,
all accusative singular). They are connected by two conjunctions ca (and)
in the common way of Pali texts.

    Next two segments
are just attributes to the main subject of the sentence, the personal pronoun
sa (he) in the last clause. They are sammāppajāno (having the
right knowledge, nominative singular) and suvimuttacitto (with a well
emancipated mind, nominative singular).

    Next is the segment
anupādiyāno idha vā huraṃ vā (not attached to anything, either in this
world, nor in the other one). The subject is, as above the personal pronoun
coming in the final clause. The verb is anupādiyāno (not attached, active
present participle, in nominative singular). The object is double — idha
(here) and huraṃ (there), connected by two conjunctions vā (or) in
the common way of Pali texts.

    Last part is the
sentence sa bhāgavā sāmaññassa hoti (he is a sharer of the monkshood).
The subject is the pronoun sa (he, nominative singular). The verb is hoti
(is, 3rd person, singular, active, indicative, present tense). The object is
the word bhāgavā (sharer, “shareholder”, nominative singular) with its
attribute sāmaññassa (of monkshood, genitive singular).

So, who can be truly called a monk, who
shares the blessings of monkshood? It must be a person, who is living in
accordance with the Dharma, as proclaimed by the Buddha. He must abandon all
three roots of evil (lust, hatred and delusion), must have the right knowledge
of the Dharma and his mind must be liberated. He must not of course be attached
to anything in this world, but neither to anything in his possible future
rebirths. Such a person is sharing all the blessings of monkshood, even if he
does not preach the Dharma a lot.

  “మనసు అన్ని మానసిక స్థితులకు ముందు, మనసు వారి ముఖ్యమైంది, అవి మనస్సులో ఉంటాయి.
ఒక వ్యక్తి అపవిత్రమైన మనస్సుతో మాట్లాడటం లేదా చేస్తే,
చక్రాన్ని ఆవు యొక్క పాదం కిందికి వండుతుండటంతో బాధలు అతనిని అనుసరిస్తాయి. “
