SagacityMoneyyasutta

“Mendicants, there are these three kinds of sagacity.“Tīṇimāni, bhikkhave, moneyyāni. What three?Katamāni tīṇi? Sagacity of body, speech, and mind.Kāyamoneyyaṁ, vacīmoneyyaṁ, manomoneyyaṁ.

And what is sagacity of body?Katamañca, bhikkhave, kāyamoneyyaṁ? It’s when a mendicant doesn’t kill living creatures, steal, or have sex.Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu pāṇātipātā paṭivirato hoti, adinnādānā paṭivirato hoti, abrahmacariyā paṭivirato hoti. This is called ‘sagacity of body’.Idaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, kāyamoneyyaṁ.

And what is sagacity of speech?Katamañca, bhikkhave, vacīmoneyyaṁ? It’s when a mendicant doesn’t use speech that’s false, backbiting, harsh, or nonsensical.Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu musāvādā paṭivirato hoti, pisuṇāya vācāya paṭivirato hoti, pharusāya vācāya paṭivirato hoti, samphappalāpā paṭivirato hoti. This is called ‘sagacity of speech’.Idaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, vacīmoneyyaṁ.

And what is sagacity of mind?Katamañca, bhikkhave, manomoneyyaṁ? It’s when a mendicant realizes the undefiled freedom of heart and freedom by wisdom. And they live having realized it with their own insight in this very life due to the ending of defilements.Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu āsavānaṁ khayā anāsavaṁ cetovimuttiṁ paññāvimuttiṁ diṭṭheva dhamme sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā upasampajja viharati. This is called ‘sagacity of mind’.Idaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, manomoneyyaṁ. These are the three kinds of sagacity.Imāni kho, bhikkhave, tīṇi moneyyānīti.

A sage in body, a sage in speech,Kāyamuniṁ vacīmuniṁ, a sage undefiled in heart;cetomuniṁ anāsavaṁ; a sage, blessed with sagacity,Muniṁ moneyyasampannaṁ, has given up everything, they say.”āhu sabbappahāyinan”ti.
