AN 3.87 · Sutta tentang Latihan (Ke-2)

Kenali dunia dalam sutta ini

Sutta ini mengajak kita merenungkan bagaimana praktik spiritual yang tampak rumit—dengan banyak aturan—sebenarnya berakar pada tiga latihan inti. Perhatikan bagaimana Buddha memetakan berbagai tingkat pencapaian berdasarkan kelengkapan latihan, dan apa artinya bagi pemahaman kita tentang jalan spiritual.

TOKOH & TEMPAT

Sinopsis singkat

Buddha menjelaskan bahwa lebih dari seratus lima puluh aturan latihan yang dibacakan setiap dua minggu sebenarnya tercakup dalam tiga latihan utama: moralitas yang lebih tinggi, pikiran yang lebih tinggi, dan kebijaksanaan yang lebih tinggi. Ia kemudian menguraikan tiga tingkatan praktisi berdasarkan kelengkapan latihan mereka, dari yang berlatih sebagian hingga yang sempurna, serta buah yang sesuai dengan masing-masing tingkat tersebut.
