Preached, seven days after the first sermon, to Nālaka, nephew of Asita. The sutta itself is a discourse on the state of a recluse (Moneyyapatipadā), but there are twenty introductory verses (called Vatthugāthā) giving the story of Asita and Nālaka (Sn.vs. 679 723; SnA.ii.501). The sutta is also called Nālaka paopadā. (J.i.55). Updated: 15 September 2011 http://What-Buddha-Said.net/library/DPPN/n/nalaka_s.htm |
