Are there any EBT suttas not found in the paali collection?

Post by dylanj »

i.e., found in other early collections but not the nikaayas
Born, become, arisen – made, prepared, short-lived
Bonded by decay and death – a nest for sickness, perishable
Produced by seeking nutriment – not fit to take delight in


Departure from this is peaceful – beyond reasoning and enduring
Unborn, unarisen – free from sorrow and stain
Ceasing of all factors of suffering – stilling of all preparations is bliss

Greetings,

Do you mean things like agamas, which don't have Pali parallels?

Yes exactly

Bonded by decay and death – a nest for sickness, perishable

Hi maranadhammomhi,

You can check out the parallels, or lack thereof, from the lists on Sutta Central: https://suttacentral.net/

The answer, is, of course, "yes".

Those who don't know any of the relevant languages would best begin with those non-Pali collections that Sutta Central has in English translation. Unfortunately owing to copyright issues with Ven. Anālayo's translations the only ones presently available are a small number by Ven. Ānandajoti, Sāmaṇerī Dhammadinnā, and Marcus Bingenheimer...

Greetings,

If you find any there that appear particularly noteworthy, by all means feel free to initiate a discussion on them.

Greetings,

Re: SA109

Indeed... it reads like a high paced mish-mash of other teachings.

I liked this section, and couldn't help thinking of the "common folk" as activists who push identity based issues (i.e. "a multitude of wrongness"), and the "noble disciple" as the one who can see the drawbacks of such folly...
A noble disciple who is endowed with the vision of the truth gains the fruit of right comprehension (abhisamaya ). If the common folk has wrong view, that has its basis in identity view (sakkāyadiṭṭhi ), accumulates through identity view, arises through identity view, and emerges through identity view. That is, being covered by and experiencing worry and sorrow, they [still] celebrate and cher­ish it, call it a self, call it a living being, call it out­standing, special, and hold it to be superior.

“In this way this multitude of wrongness has all been completely given up and eradicated, removed at its root; like a plantain tree it will not arise again in the future.
It explains the wrongness of white supremacy and black supremacy etc. to a T.

I guess the human condition hasn't radically changed in the last 2600 years.

Thanks for sharing!

Metta,
Paul. :)

It doesn't have most of them, but only a selection that Wisdom Publications have agreed to release for this purpose.

Why wouldn't Ven Analayo choose a similar sort of license when publishing his books?
You would need to ask him. We're not acquainted.

Venerable, is it the case that these aren't available for free, or whatsoever? If the former, where can I pay for them?

My understanding is that they are free but that the copyright is held by that Japanese Mahayana outfit that distributes Buddhist Gideon Bibles to Asian hotels. I've forgotten its name now.
