SN 2.2 With Kassapa (2nd) – Dutiyakassapasutta

 

At Sāvatthī.

Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

Standing to one side, the god Kassapa recited this verse in the Buddha’s presence:

Ekamantaṁ ṭhito kho kassapo devaputto bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi:

“Suppose a bhikkhu is a meditator, freed in mind.

“Bhikkhu siyā jhāyī vimuttacitto,

If they want to reach the heart’s peace,

Ākaṅkhe ce hadayassānupattiṁ;

having known the arising and passing of the world,

Lokassa ñatvā udayabbayañca,

healthy-minded, independent, that is their reward.”

Sucetaso anissito tadānisaṁso”ti.
