AN 5.68

Dutiyaiddhipādasutta

“Pubbevāhaṁ, bhikkhave, sambodhā anabhisambuddho bodhisattova samāno pañca dhamme bhāvesiṁ, pañca dhamme bahulīkāsiṁ. Katame pañca? Chandasamādhipadhānasaṅkhārasamannāgataṁ iddhipādaṁ bhāvesiṁ, vīriyasamādhi … cittasamādhi … vīmaṁsāsamādhipadhānasaṅkhārasamannāgataṁ iddhipādaṁ bhāvesiṁ, ussoḷhiññeva pañcamiṁ. So kho ahaṁ, bhikkhave, imesaṁ ussoḷhipañcamānaṁ dhammānaṁ bhāvitattā bahulīkatattā yassa yassa abhiññāsacchikaraṇīyassa dhammassa cittaṁ abhininnāmesiṁ abhiññāsacchikiriyāya, tatra tatreva sakkhibhabbataṁ pāpuṇiṁ sati sati āyatane.

Bases of Psychic Power (2nd)

“Mendicants, before my awakening—when I was still not awake but intent on awakening—I developed and cultivated five things. What five? The basis of psychic power that has immersion due to enthusiasm, and active effort … the basis of psychic power that has immersion due to energy, and active effort … the basis of psychic power that has immersion due to mental development, and active effort … the basis of psychic power that has immersion due to inquiry, and active effort. And the fifth is sheer vigor. When I had developed and cultivated these five things, with vigor as fifth, I extended the mind to realize by insight each and every thing that can be realized by insight; and I was capable of realizing those things, since each and every one was within range.

So sace ākaṅkhiṁ: ‘anekavihitaṁ iddhividhaṁ paccanubhaveyyaṁ …pe… yāva brahmalokāpi kāyena vasaṁ vatteyyan’ti, tatra tatreva sakkhibhabbataṁ pāpuṇiṁ sati sati āyatane.

If I wished: ‘May I multiply myself and become one again … controlling the body as far as the realm of divinity.’ I was capable of realizing it, since each and every one is within range.

So sace ākaṅkhiṁ …pe… ‘āsavānaṁ khayā anāsavaṁ cetovimuttiṁ paññāvimuttiṁ diṭṭheva dhamme sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā upasampajja vihareyyan’ti, tatra tatreva sakkhibhabbataṁ pāpuṇiṁ sati sati āyatane”ti.

If I wished: … ‘May I realize the undefiled freedom of heart and freedom by wisdom, and live having realized it with my own insight in this very life due to the ending of defilements.’ I was capable of realizing it, since each and every one is within range.”
