Nandatisutta

Translator: Mahāsaṅgīti Tipiṭaka Buddhavasse 2500

Evaṁ me sutaṁ—

ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.

Atha kho māro pāpimā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi:

“Nandati puttehi puttimā,

Gomā gobhi tatheva nandati;

Upadhīhi narassa nandanā,

Na hi so nandati yo nirūpadhī”ti.

“Socati puttehi puttimā,

Gomā gobhi tatheva socati;

Upadhīhi narassa socanā,

Na hi so socati yo nirūpadhī”ti.

Atha kho māro pāpimā “jānāti maṁ bhagavā, jānāti maṁ sugato”ti dukkhī dummano tatthevantaradhāyīti.
