With KakudhaKakudhasutta

So I have heard.Evaṁ me sutaṁ— At one time the Buddha was staying near Sāketa in the deer park at the Añjana Wood.ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sākete viharati añjanavane migadāye.

Then, late at night, the glorious godling Kakudha, lighting up the entire Añjana Wood, went up to the Buddha, bowed, stood to one side, and said to him,Atha kho kakudho devaputto abhikkantāya rattiyā abhikkantavaṇṇo kevalakappaṁ añjanavanaṁ obhāsetvā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ aṭṭhāsi. Ekamantaṁ ṭhito kho kakudho devaputto bhagavantaṁ etadavoca: “Do you delight, ascetic?”“nandasi, samaṇā”ti?

“What have I gained, sir?”“Kiṁ laddhā, āvuso”ti?

“Well then, ascetic, do you sorrow?”“Tena hi, samaṇa, socasī”ti?

“What have I lost, sir?”“Kiṁ jīyittha, āvuso”ti?

“Well then, ascetic, do you neither delight nor sorrow?”“Tena hi, samaṇa, neva nandasi na ca socasī”ti?

“Yes, sir.”“Evamāvuso”ti.

“I hope you’re not gloomy, mendicant,“Kacci tvaṁ anagho bhikkhu, I hope that delight isn’t found in you.kacci nandī na vijjati; I hope that discontent doesn’tKacci taṁ ekamāsīnaṁ, overwhelm you as you sit alone.”aratī nābhikīratī”ti.

“How are you not gloomy, mendicant?“Kathaṁ tvaṁ anagho bhikkhu, How is delight not found in you?kathaṁ nandī na vijjati; How does discontent notKathaṁ taṁ ekamāsīnaṁ, overwhelm you as you sit alone?”aratī nābhikīratī”ti.

“Delight is born from gloom,“Aghajātassa ve nandī, gloom is born from delight;nandījātassa ve aghaṁ; sir, you should know me asAnandī anagho bhikkhu, a mendicant free of delight and gloom.”evaṁ jānāhi āvuso”ti.

“After a long time I see“Cirassaṁ vata passāmi, a brahmin fully quenched.brāhmaṇaṁ parinibbutaṁ; A mendicant free of delight and gloom,Anandiṁ anaghaṁ bhikkhuṁ, he has crossed over clinging to the world.”tiṇṇaṁ loke visattikan”ti.
