Addhāsutta

Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:

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

“Tayome, bhikkhave, addhā. Katame tayo? Atīto addhā, anāgato addhā, paccuppanno addhā— ime kho, bhikkhave, tayo addhā”ti. Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:

“Mendicants, there are these three periods. What three? Past, future, and present. These are the three periods.” The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:

“Akkheyyasaññino sattā, akkheyyasmiṁ patiṭṭhitā; Akkheyyaṁ apariññāya, yogamāyanti maccuno.

“Sentient beings who perceive the communicable, become established in the communicable. Not understanding the communicable, they fall under the yoke of Death.

Akkheyyañca pariññāya, akkhātāraṁ na maññati; Phuṭṭho vimokkho manasā, santipadamanuttaraṁ.

But having fully understood the communicable, they don’t conceive a communicator, as they’ve touched liberation with their mind, the supreme state of peace.

Sa ve akkheyyasampanno, santo santipade rato; Saṅkhāya sevī dhammaṭṭho, saṅkhyaṁ nopeti vedagū”ti.

Accomplished in the communicable, peaceful, in love with the state of peace; one who makes use after appraisal, firm in principle, a knowledge master cannot be reckoned.”

Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. Catutthaṁ.

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