Kīṭāgiri Sutta
SuttaEine Lehrrede, die in Kīṭāgiri der als Assaji-Punabbasukā bekannten Mönchsgruppe vorgetragen wurde, die die Praxis, nur einmal täglich zu essen, wie es der Buddha und seine ergebenen Schüler taten, verspottet hatte; der Buddha besteht darauf, dass all seine Lehren auf seiner eigenen Erfahrung und Erkenntnis beruhen und ohne solches Nörgeln befolgt werden müssen.
Taught at Kīṭāgiri to the Assaji-Punabbasukā, who were reported to the Buddha as having ridiculed the idea that they should themselves have only one meal a day because the Buddha and his devoted disciples did so. The Buddha sent for them and impressed on them that all his teachings were based on experience and knowledge and should therefore be followed by them. Chaffering such as their’s was not seemly in the seeker after truth (M.i.473 ff).
