Appamadavagga: Heedfulness
translated from the Pali by
Thanissaro Bhikkhu
Heedfulness: the path to the Deathless. Heedlessness: the path to death. The heedful do not die. The heedless are as if already dead.
Knowing this as a true distinction, those wise in heedfulness rejoice in heedfulness, enjoying the range of the noble ones.
The enlightened, constantly absorbed in jhana, persevering, firm in their effort: they touch Unbinding, the unexcelled rest from the yoke.
Those with initiative, mindful, clean in action, acting with due consideration, heedful, restrained, living the Dhamma: their glory grows.
25
Through initiative, heedfulness, restraint, & self-control, the wise would make an island no flood can submerge.
26
They're addicted to heedlessness — dullards, fools — while one who is wise cherishes heedfulness as his highest wealth.
27
Don't give way to heedlessness or to intimacy with sensual delight — for a heedful person, absorbed in jhana, attains an abundance of ease.
28
When the wise person drives out heedlessness with heedfulness, having climbed the high tower of discernment, sorrow-free, he observes the sorrowing crowd — as the enlightened man, having scaled a summit, the fools on the ground below.
29
Heedful among the heedless, wakeful among those asleep, just as a fast horse advances, leaving the weak behind: so the wise.
30
Through heedfulness, Indra won to lordship over the gods. Heedfulness is praised, heedlessness censured — always.
31-32
The monk delighting in heedfulness, seeing danger in heedlessness, advances like a fire, burning fetters great & small.
The monk delighting in heedfulness, seeing danger in heedlessness
— incapable of falling back — stands right on the verge of Unbinding.
