Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.
“Tīṇimāni, bhikkhave, moneyyāni. Katamāni tīṇi? Kāyamoneyyaṁ, vacīmoneyyaṁ, manomoneyyaṁ— imāni kho, bhikkhave, tīṇi moneyyānī”ti. Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
“Mendicants, there are these three kinds of sagacity. What three? Sagacity of body, speech, and mind. These are the three kinds of sagacity.” The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:
“Kāyamuniṁ vacīmuniṁ, manomunimanāsavaṁ; Muniṁ moneyyasampannaṁ, āhu ninhātapāpakan”ti.
“A sage in body, a sage in speech, a sage undefiled in mind; a sage, blessed with sagacity, has washed off all bad things, they say.”
