Danda Vaggo - Violence

१०. दण्डवग्गो
【10. Violence】



English Translation:
All tremble at the rod. All fear death.
Comparing others with oneself,
one should neither strike nor cause to strike

All tremble at the rod, all hold their life dear.
Drawing the parallel to yourself,
neither kill nor get others to kill.

Whoever takes a rod to harm living beings
who also desiring ease as himself,
when he himself is looking for ease,
will meet with no ease after death.

‘‘सब्बा दिसा अनुपरिगम्म चेतसा,
नेवज्झगा पियतरमत्तना क्वचि।
एवं पियो पुथु अत्ता परेसं,
तस्मा न हिंसे परमत्तकामो’’ति॥

即使一個人用心照遍十方的任何角落, 都尋不到一個愛他人的程度超過於愛自命的人。
同理,十方所有眾生也珍惜自命超過他人; 因此,願自我得到安樂的人不應該傷害凡有生命的。
【相應部 1-75】

"Sabbā disā anuparigamma cetasā,
Nevajjhagā piyataramattanā kvaci;
Evaṃ piyo puthu attā paresaṃ,
Tasmā na hiṃse paramattakāmo"ti.

即使一个人用心找遍十方的任何角落,也找不到一个自己爱他的程度超过于爱自己的人。
同理,十方所有众生爱他们自己超过爱别人; 因此,愿自己得到安乐的人不应伤害凡有情之。
【相应部 1-75】

Have sought through all directions for one who can love more than his self, but in vain. Every being love their life most. So, Every one who love their life should therefore not violate others [who also love their life].

“Apabila seseorang mengarungi segala penjuru dunia untuk mencari yang lebih mencintai yang lainnya
lebih dari pada dirinya sendiri, semua itu hanya kesiasiaan saja. Semuanya menyayangi dirinya sendiri lebih dari apapun.
maka dari itu, bagi yang mencintai hidupnya [dirinya], janganlah [ia] mencelakai yang lain."
