Ekaṁ samayaṁ Bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi:|| ||

Bhagavā etad avoca:|| ||

2. Cattāro'me bhikkhave puggalā santo saṁvijj'amānā lokasmiṁ.|| ||

Katame cattāro?|| ||

Sarāgo,||
sadoso,||
samoho,||
samāno.|| ||

Ime kho bhikkhave cattāro puggalā santo saṁvijj'amānā lokasmin ti.|| ||

[72] Sārattā rajanīyesu piya-rūpābhinandino,||
Mohena adhamā sattā baddhā vaḍḍhenti bandhanaṁ.|| ||

Rāgajañ ca dosa-jañ ca moha-jañ cāpi viddasu,||
Karonti akusalaṁ kammaṁ sa-vighātaṁ dukkhudayaṁ.|| ||

Avijjānivutā posā andhabhūtā acakkhukā,||
Yathā dhammā tathā santā tass'evan ti na maññare ti.|| ||
