Cūḷa-Assapura Sutta

Sutta

アッサプラで説かれたこの経は、袈裟や木の下に住むこと、経典の読誦、一日三回の沐浴が真の沙門たらしめるのではなく、あらゆる悪しき性質を捨て去ることこそがそうだと説く。

Taught at Assapura to the assembled monks.

It is not the robe that makes the recluse, nor living under a tree, nor intoning texts, bathing three times a day, etc.

It is by putting away all the evil qualities that a man becomes a true monk. M.i.281-4.
