Maṇibhaddasutta

Ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā magadhesu viharati maṇimālike cetiye maṇibhaddassa yakkhassa bhavane. Atha kho maṇibhaddo yakkho yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi:

At one time the Buddha was staying in the land of the Magadhans at the Maṇimālika Shrine, the haunt of the native spirit Maṇibhadda. Then the native spirit Maṇibhadda went up to the Buddha, and spoke this verse in the Buddha’s presence:

“Satīmato sadā bhaddaṁ, satimā sukhamedhati; Satīmato suve seyyo, verā ca parimuccatī”ti.

“It’s always auspicious for the mindful; the mindful prosper in happiness. Each new day is better for the mindful, and they are freed from enmity.”

“Satīmato sadā bhaddaṁ, satimā sukhamedhati; Satīmato suve seyyo, verā na parimuccati.

“It’s always auspicious for the mindful; the mindful prosper in happiness. Each new day is better for the mindful, but they’re not freed from enmity.

Yassa sabbamahorattaṁ, ahiṁsāya rato mano; Mettaṁso sabbabhūtesu, veraṁ tassa na kenacī”ti.

But someone whose mind delights in harmlessness, all day and all night, with love for all living creatures— they have no enmity for anyone.”
