Mahākappinasutta

Sāvatthiyaṁ viharati.

Atha kho āyasmā mahākappino yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami.

Addasā kho bhagavā āyasmantaṁ mahākappinaṁ dūratova āgacchantaṁ.

Disvāna bhikkhū āmantesi:

“passatha no tumhe, bhikkhave, etaṁ bhikkhuṁ āgacchantaṁ odātakaṁ tanukaṁ tuṅganāsikan”ti?

“Evaṁ, bhante”.

“Eso kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhu mahiddhiko mahānubhāvo.

Na ca sā samāpatti sulabharūpā yā tena bhikkhunā asamāpannapubbā.

Yassa catthāya kulaputtā sammadeva agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajanti tadanuttaraṁ brahmacariyapariyosānaṁ diṭṭheva dhamme sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā upasampajja viharatī”ti.

Idamavoca bhagavā.

Idaṁ vatvāna sugato athāparaṁ etadavoca satthā:

“Khattiyo seṭṭho janetasmiṁ,

ye gottapaṭisārino;

Vijjācaraṇasampanno,

so seṭṭho devamānuse.

Divā tapati ādicco,

rattimābhāti candimā;

Sannaddho khattiyo tapati,

jhāyī tapati brāhmaṇo;

Atha sabbamahorattiṁ,

buddho tapati tejasā”ti.

Ekādasamaṁ.
