Asurindaka Sutta

Sutta

一部经,讲述一名婆罗门因族人出家而恼怒辱骂佛陀,佛陀以沉默应对,并教示不以怒还怒者可得双重胜利。

Recounts an interview between the Buddha and Asurindaka Bhāradvāja in Veluvaņa. When Asurindaka heard that Bhāradvāja (probably the chief of the clan) had entered the Order, he was greatly vexed, and going up to the Buddha he abused him. The Buddha remaining silent, Asurindaka thought that he acknowledged defeat. However, the Buddha enlightened him, saying that the worse of the two is he who, when reviled, reviles back; he who does not so revile wins a twofold victory: he seeks the good both of himself and of the other (S.i.163 f; SA.i.178).
