Reflection at the Moment of Using the Requisites


 (LEADER):
Handa mayaṃ taṅkhaṇika-paccavekkhaṇa-pāṭhaṃ bhaṇāma se:
Now let us recite the passage for reflection at the moment (of using the requisites):
(ALL):
[Paṭisaṅkhā yoniso] cīvaraṃ paṭisevāmi,
Considering it thoughtfully, I use the robe,
Yāvadeva sītassa paṭighātāya,
Simply to counteract the cold,
Uṇhassa paṭighātāya,
To counteract the heat,
Ḍaṃsa-makasa-vātātapa-siriṃsapa-samphassānaṃ paṭighātāya,
To counteract the touch of flies, mosquitoes, wind, sun, & reptiles;
Yāvadeva hirikopina-paṭicchādan'atthaṃ.
Simply for the purpose of covering the parts of the body that cause shame.
Paṭisaṅkhā yoniso piṇḍapātaṃ paṭisevāmi,
Considering it thoughtfully, I use alms food,
Neva davāya na madāya na maṇḍanāya na vibhūsanāya,
Not playfully, nor for intoxication, nor for putting on bulk, nor for beautification,
Yāvadeva imassa kāyassa ṭhitiyā yāpanāya vihiṃsuparatiyā brahma-cariyānuggahāya,
But simply for the survival & continuance of this body, for ending its afflictions, for the support of the holy life,
Iti purāṇañca vedanaṃ paṭihaṅkhāmi navañca vedanaṃ na uppādessāmi,
(Thinking,) Thus will I destroy old feelings (of hunger) and not create new feelings (from overeating).
Yātrā ca me bhavissati anavajjatā ca phāsu-vihāro cāti.
I will maintain myself, be blameless, & live in comfort.
Paṭisaṅkhā yoniso senāsanaṃ paṭisevāmi,
Considering it thoughtfully, I use the lodging,
Yāvadeva sītassa paṭighātāya,
Simply to counteract the cold,
Uṇhassa paṭighātāya,
To counteract the heat,
Ḍaṃsa-makasa-vātātapa-siriṃsapa-samphassānaṃ paṭighātāya,
To counteract the touch of flies, mosquitoes, wind, sun, & reptiles;
Yāvadeva utuparissaya-vinodanaṃ paṭisallānārām'atthaṃ.
Simply for protection from the inclemencies of weather and for the enjoyment of seclusion.
Paṭisaṅkhā yoniso gilāna-paccaya-bhesajja-parikkhāraṃ paṭisevāmi,
Considering them thoughtfully, I use medicinal requisites for curing the sick,
Yāvadeva uppannānaṃ veyyābādhikānaṃ vedanānaṃ paṭighātāya,
Simply to counteract any pains of illness that have arisen,
Abyāpajjha-paramatāyāti.
And for maximum freedom from disease.
