Sutta

経集の「蛇の章」に収められた経で、鍛冶屋のチュンダ・カンマーラプッタが世にある四種の沙門についてブッダに説明を求める

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).
