  • 游方者 Vekhanassa 与佛陀辩论何谓圆满,佛陀指出其所谓圆满不过是精致化的欲乐,Vekhanassa 终皈依为佛弟子;注释书说他此行是为了解其弟子 Sakuludāyi 论辩落败之故。

  • A discourse in which the wanderer Vekhanassa argues with the Buddha over the nature of perfection, is shown that his notion is merely refined pleasure, and becomes the Buddha’s follower; the Commentary says he came seeking to understand his pupil Sakuludāyi’s defeat in debate.
