The Bikkhu⁽¹⁾ who delights in heedfulness, and looks with fear on heedlessness, advances like fire, burning all fetters⁽²⁾ great and small.

Story

A monk, failing in his meditation in the forest, was coming to see the Buddha. On the way he saw a forest fire advancing, burning all things great and small. This sight induces him to think that he too should advance burning all the fetters, great and small, by the fire of Noble Eightfold Path. The Buddha reads his thought and, radiating a ray of light, advised him accorgingly.

(1) A fully ordained disciple of the Buddha is called a Bhikkhu. “Medicant monk” may be suggested as the closest equivalent for “Bhikkhu”. He is not a priest as he is not mediator between God and man. He has no vows for life, but he is bound by his rules which he takes of his own accord. He leads a life of voluntary poverty and celibacy. If he is unable to live the Holy Life. He can discard the robe at any time.

(2) Saṁyojana–lit., that which yokes beings to the ocean of life. There are ten kinds of fetters- namely, self-illusion (sakkāyadiṭṭhi), doubts (vicikicchā), indulgence in (wrongful) rites and ceremonies (silabbataparāmāsa), sense-desires (Kāmarāga), hatred (paṭigha), attachment to the Realms of Form (rūparāga), attachment to the Formless Reals (arūparāga), conceit (māna), restlessness (uddhacca) and ignorance (avijjā).

The first five, pertaining to This Shore (orambhāgiya) are regarded as small, the rest, pertaining to Further Shore (uddhambhāgiya) as great.

The first three are eradicated on attaining the first stage of Sainthood (Sotāpanna).

The second two are attenuated on attaining the second stage of Sainthood (Sakadāgāmi).

The second two are destroyed on attaining the third stage of Sainthood (Anāgāmi).

The last five are eradicated on attaining the fourth stage of Sainthood (Arahanta).
