9. Mettasuttaṃ

1.

Karaṇīyamatthakusalena, yantasantaṃ padaṃ abhisamecca;

Sakko ujū ca suhujū ca, suvaco cassa mudu anatimānī.

2.

Santussako ca subharo ca, appakicco ca sallahukavutti;

Santindriyo ca nipako ca, appagabbho kulesvananugiddho.

3.

Na ca khuddamācare kiñci, yena viññū pare upavadeyyuṃ;

Sukhinova khemino hontu, sabbasattā bhavantu sukhitattā.

4.

Ye keci pāṇabhūtatthi, tasā vā thāvarā vanavasesā;

Dīghā vā yeva mahantā , majjhimā rassakā aṇukathūlā.

5.

Diṭṭhā vā yeva adiṭṭhā , ye va dūre vasanti avidūre;

Bhūtā va sambhavesī va , sabbasattā bhavantu sukhitattā.

6.

Na paro paraṃ nikubbetha, nātimaññetha katthaci na kañci ;

Byārosanā paṭighasaññā, nāññamaññassa dukkhamiccheyya.

7.

Mātā yathā niyaṃ puttamāyusā ekaputtamanurakkhe;

Evampi sabbabhūtesu, mānasaṃ bhāvaye aparimāṇaṃ.

8.

Mettañca sabbalokasmi, mānasaṃ bhāvaye aparimāṇaṃ;

Uddhaṃ adho ca tiriyañca, asambādhaṃ averamasapattaṃ.

9.

Tiṭṭhaṃ caraṃ nisinno va , sayāno yāvatāssa vitamiddho ;

Etaṃ satiṃ adhiṭṭheyya, brahmametaṃ vihāramidhamāhu.

10.

Diṭṭhiñca anupaggamma, sīlavā dassanena sampanno;

Kāmesu vinaya gedhaṃ, na hi jātuggabbhaseyya puna retīti.

Mettasuttaṃ niṭṭhitaṃ.

Khuddakapāṭhapāḷi niṭṭhitā.
