DN 7 Jāliya Sutta - About Jāliya

E-mail Print PDF

1. Thus have I heard. Once the Lord was staying at Kosambī, in the Ghosita Par. And two wanderers, Maṇḍissa and Jāliya, the pupil of the wooden-bowl ascetic, came to him, exchanged courtesies with him and sat down to one side…(verses 1-5= Sutta 6, verses 15-19).

Thus the Lord spoke, and the two wanderers rejoiced at his words.
