Dosasutta

Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:

This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.

“Ekadhammaṁ, bhikkhave, pajahatha; ahaṁ vo pāṭibhogo anāgāmitāya. Katamaṁ ekadhammaṁ? Dosaṁ, bhikkhave, ekadhammaṁ pajahatha; ahaṁ vo pāṭibhogo anāgāmitāyā”ti. Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:

“Mendicants, give up one thing and I guarantee you non-return. What one thing? Hate is the one thing. Give it up, and I guarantee you non-return.” The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:

“Yena dosena duṭṭhāse, sattā gacchanti duggatiṁ; Taṁ dosaṁ sammadaññāya, pajahanti vipassino; Pahāya na punāyanti, imaṁ lokaṁ kudācanan”ti.

“When overcome by hate beings go to a bad place. Having rightly understood that hate, the discerning give it up. Once they’ve given it up, they never return to this world.”

Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. Dutiyaṁ.

This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.
