Linked Discourses 2.2

Chapter One

With Kassapa (2nd)

At Sāvatthī.
Standing to one side, the godling Kassapa recited this verse in the Buddha’s presence:
 “If a mendicant is a meditator, freed in mind,
 and if they desire the heart’s fulfillment—
 having known the arising and passing of the world,
 good-hearted, independent, that is their reward.”
