325如是我闻：一时，世尊住在那提卡的砖屋中。那时，尊者阿那律、尊者难提与尊者金毗罗正住在果星嘎的林间沙罗树苑。傍晚时分，世尊从独处禅坐中起身，往果星嘎的林间沙罗树苑走去。林苑守护者远远望见世尊到来，见后便对世尊说：“沙门，请勿入此林苑。这里有三位善男子，正随宜安住，勿扰其修。”
Evaṃ me sutaṃ – ekaṃ samayaṃ bhagavā nātike viharati giñjakāvasathe. Tena kho pana samayena āyasmā ca anuruddho āyasmā ca nandiyo āyasmā ca kimilo gosiṅgasālavanadāye viharanti.

Disvāna bhagavantaṃ etadavoca – ‘‘mā, samaṇa, etaṃ dāyaṃ pāvisi. Santettha tayo kulaputtā attakāmarūpā viharanti. Mā tesaṃ aphāsumakāsī’’ti.
2尊者阿那律听到了林苑守护者与世尊的交谈。听了之后，便对林苑守护者说：“守护者朋友，请不要阻拦世尊，是我们的导师——世尊到了。”于是，尊者阿那律来到尊者难提和尊者金毗罗处，到了以后，对尊者难提和尊者金毗罗说：“尊者们，请出来吧，尊者们，请出来吧，我们的导师世尊到了。”于是，尊者阿那律、尊者难提和尊者金毗罗一起出来迎接世尊：一人接过世尊的衣钵，一人铺设座位，一人端来洗脚水。世尊在铺好的座位上坐下，洗完脚。几位尊者礼敬世尊后，坐在一旁。世尊对坐在一旁的尊者阿那律这样说：
Assosi kho āyasmā anuruddho dāyapālassa bhagavatā saddhiṃ mantayamānassa. Sutvāna dāyapālaṃ etadavoca – ‘‘mā, āvuso dāyapāla, bhagavantaṃ vāresi. Satthā no bhagavā anuppatto’’ti.

326“阿那律，你们是否堪忍？是否过得去？托钵乞食不疲苦吧？”“世尊，我们堪忍，过得去，尊者，我们并未因托钵乞食而疲苦。”“那么，阿那律，你们是否和合相处，欢喜融洽，无有诤论，如乳水交融般，彼此以慈爱的目光相看而住呢？”“确实，世尊，我们和合、欢喜、无诤，如乳水交融，彼此以慈爱的目光相看而住。”“阿那律，你们是如何这样和合、欢喜、无诤，如乳水交融般，彼此以慈爱的目光相看而住的呢？”“世尊，对此我是这样想的：‘我能与这样的同梵行者共住，真是我所得的利益，真是我所得的大善利啊！’因此，世尊，我对这些尊者，不论在人前还是独处，都现起慈爱的身业；不论在人前还是独处，都现起慈爱的语业；不论在人前还是独处，都现起慈爱的意业。世尊，我又这样想：‘我何不将自己的心意搁下，就随顺着这些尊者的心意而行呢？’于是，世尊，我便搁下了自己的心意，只随顺这些尊者的心意而行。世尊，我们”

4尊者难提也……尊者金毗罗也这样对世尊说：“世尊，我也是这样想的：‘我能与这样的同梵行者共住，真是我所得的利益，真是我所得的大善利啊！’因此，世尊，我对这些尊者，不论在人前还是独处，都现起慈爱的身业；不论在人前还是独处，都现起慈爱的语业；不论在人前还是独处，都现起慈爱的意业。世尊，我又这样想：‘我何不将自己的心意搁下，随顺着这些尊者的心意而行呢？’于是，世尊，我便搁下了自己的心意，只随顺这些尊者的心意而行。世尊，我们的身体虽然各不相同，但我认为我们的心却是一体。”

5“尊者，我们正是如此和合、融洽、无诤，如水乳交融，彼此以慈眼相视而安住。”
‘‘Evaṃ kho mayaṃ, bhante, samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā khīrodakībhūtā aññamaññaṃ piyacakkhūhi sampassantā viharāmā’’ti.
327“善哉，善哉，阿那律！那么，阿那律，你们是否安住于不放逸、精进、一心专注呢？”“确实，尊者，我们安住于不放逸、精进、一心专注。”“阿那律，你们是如何安住于这般不放逸、精进、一心专注的呢？”“尊者，在我们当中，最先从村落托钵归来者，便铺设座位，备好饮用水与洗用水，并放置废物桶。后从村落托钵归来者，若尚有剩余的食物，若他欲食则食；若不欲食，便将其弃于无草之处，或倾入无有生物的水中。随后，他收拾座位，收好饮用水与洗用水，清洗废物桶，并打扫食堂。若有人见饮用水罐、洗用水罐或厕所水罐已空、无水，便负责添满。若他独自无法完成，便以手势唤来另一人，两人以手势默契配合而作。尊者，我们决不会因这类事情而开口说话。再者，尊者，我们每隔五日，便整夜共坐一处，进行法义的讨论。尊者，我们正是以此方式，安住于不放逸、精进、一心专注之中。”
