5. Candābhajātakaṃ

candābhanti idaṃ satthā jetavane viharanto saṅkassanagaradvāre therasseva pañhassa byākaraṇaṃ ārabbha kathesi.

Atīte bārāṇasiyaṃ brahmadatte rajjaṃ kārente bodhisatto araññāyatane kālaṃ karonto antevāsikena pucchito candābhaṃ suriyābhanti vatvā ābhassaresu nibbatto. Tāpasā jeṭṭhantevāsikassa na saddahiṃsu. Bodhisatto āgantvā ākāse ṭhito imaṃ gāthamāha

candābhaṃ suriyābhañca yodha paññāya gādhati

avitakkena jhānena hoti ābhassarūpagoti.

Tattha candābhanti odātakasiṇaṃ dasseti. Suriyābhanti pītakasiṇaṃ. Yodha paññāya gādhatīti yo puggalo idha sattaloke idaṃ kasiṇadvayaṃ paññāya gādhati ārammaṇaṃ katvā anupavisati tattha vā patiṭṭhahati. Athavā. Candābhaṃ suriyābhañca yodha paññāya gādhatīti yattakaṃ ṭhānaṃ candābhā ca suriyābhā ca paṭṭhaṭā tattake ṭhāne paṭibhāgakasiṇaṃ vaḍḍhetvā taṃ ārammaṇaṃ katvā jhānaṃ nibbatteti ubhayampetaṃ ābhaṃ paññāya gādhati nāma. Tasmā Ayamettha atthoyeva. Avitakkena jhānena hoti ābhassarūpagoti so puggalo tathā katvā paṭiladdhena dutiyena jhānena ābhassarabrahmalokūpago hotīti.

Evaṃ bodhisatto tāpase bodhetvā jeṭṭhantevāsikassa guṇaṃ kathetvā brahmalokameva gato.

Satthā imaṃ dhammadesanaṃ āharitvā jātakaṃ samodhānesi tadā jeṭṭhantevāsiko sārīputto mahābrahmā pana ahamevāti.

Candābhajātakaṃ pañcamaṃ.
