Cunda Sutta

Sutta

Un discours de l’Uraga Vagga du Suttanipāta où le forgeron Cunda Kammāraputta demande au Bouddha d’expliquer les quatre classes d’ascètes du monde

The fifth sutta of the Uraga Vagga of the Suttanipāta. Cunda Kammāraputta visits the Buddha in his Mango-grove in Pāvā and questions him as to how many classes of recluses there are in the world. Four, answers the Buddha — a master of the path (maggajina), a shower of the path (maggadesaka), one who lives following the path (maggajīvī), and one who defiles the path (maggadūsī) — and proceeds to explain them (SN.vs.83-90; SNA.i.159 ff). The circumstances in which the sutta was taught are given s.v. Cunda (1).
