Pāsādika Sutta

Sutta

ジャイナ教の指導者ニガンタ・ナータプッタの死と、それに続く弟子たちの間の争いの知らせを機に説かれた『長部』第二十九経で、仏陀は欠陥ある教えゆえにそのような不和が避けられなかった理由を説明し、次いで真に完全な師と教えの資質を、如来自身を例に詳述する。

The twenty ninth sutta of the Dīghanikāya.

Cunda-Samaṇuddesa, who had been spending the rainy season at Pāvā, returns and reports to Ānanda the death of Nigaṇṭha Nāṭaputta and the consequent wrangling that had broken out among the Nigaṇṭhā. Together they visit the Buddha at Sāmagāma and tell him of it. He replies that this is to be expected from the character of Nāṭaputta and from the doctrine that he taught. The Buddha then proceeds to give in detail the qualities of the perfect teacher and the perfect teaching. The Tathāgata is such a teacher and the Dhamma such a teaching (D.iii.117-41).

In the Pāsādika Sutta the threefold training is called brahmacariya. DA.i.179; MA.i.275.
