    Bojjhanga Sutta

    the Discourse on the Factors of Enlightenment


    for protection against and
    getting free from sickness and disease

    Samsare samsarantanam,
    sabbadukkha vinasane;
    satta dhamme ca bojjhange,
    marasena pamaddane.

    The seven kinds of Dhamma are the Factors of Enlightenment, which destroy all sufferings of beings who
    wander through this samsara (rounds of birth and death) and defeat the army of Mara, the Evil One.

    Bujjhitva ye cime satta,


    tibhava muttakuttama;
    ajati majara byadhim,
    amatam nibbhayam gata.

    Having realized the seven Dhammas, these persons were liberated from the three kinds of world. They
    have gone to Nibbana, where there is no birth, no decay, no sickness, deathlessness and fearlessness.

    Evamadi gunupetam,
    aneka guna sangaham;
    osadhanca imam mantam,
    bojjhanganca bhanama he.

    Oh gentle ones! Let us recite this Bojjhanga Sutta endowed with such and other innumerable qualities. It
    is like a medicine and a mantra.

    Bojjhango sati sankhato,


    dhammanam vicayo tatha;
    viriyam piti pasaddhi,
    bojjhanga ca tathapare.

    These seven Factors of Enlightenment, namely; mindfulness, investigation of Dhammas, effort (or
    energy), zest, tranquility and two others.

    Samadh-upekkha bojjhanga,
    satte'te sabbadassina;
    munina sammadakkhata,
    bhavita bahulikata.

    The factors of concentration and equanimity, these seven well-expounded by the All Seeing Sage are
    cultivated and practiced repeatedly.

    Samvattanti abhinnaya,
    nibbanaya ca bodhiya;
    etena saccavajjena,
    sotthi te hotu sabbada.
    So that there is realization of the Truth, cessation of suffering and knowledge of the Path. By this
    utterance of truth, may there always be happiness for you.

    Ekasmim samaye natho,


    moggallananca kassapam;
    gilane dukkhite disva,
    bojjhange satta desayi.

    At one time when the Bhagava saw Moggallana and Kassapa being unwell and suffering, he preached
    the seven Factors of Enlightenment.

    Te ca tam abhinanditva,
    roga muccimsu tankhane;
    etena saccavajjena,
    sotthi te hotu sabbada.

    They, who took delight in the discourse, at that moment, were freed from the disease. By this utterance
    of truth, may there always be happiness to you.

    Ekada dhammarajapi,
    gelannena'bhipilito;
    cundattherena tamyeva,
    bhanapetvana sadaram.

    Once when the King of Dhamma was affected by illness, he had the Venerable Cunda recite the
    discourse respectfully.

    Sammoditvana abadha,
    tamha vutthasi thanaso,
    etena saccavajjena,
    sotthi te hotu sabbada.

    Having taken delight in the discourse the Buddha was immediately cured of the illness. By this utterance
    of truth, may there always be happiness to you.

    Pahina te ca abadha,
    tinnannampi mahesinam;
    maggahata kilesava,
    patta'nuppatti dhammatam;
    etena saccavajjena,
    sotthi te hotu sabbada.

    Just as the defilements, once eradicated by Noble Path, could not arise again, in like manner, the
    diseases of the three Great Sages eliminated by the seven factors of enlightenment never occurred
    again. By this utterance of truth, may there always be happiness for you.

    Bojjhanga Suttam Nitthitam.


    Here ends the Discourse on the Factors of Enlightenment.
