“Bhadante” ti te bhikkhū Bhagavato paccassosuṃ. Bhagavā etad avoca:

“Ekam idāhaṃ, bhikkhave, samayaṃ ukkaṭṭhāyaṃ viharāmi Subhagavane sālarājamūle. Tena kho pana, bhikkhave, samayena bakassa brahmuno evarūpaṃ pāpakaṃ diṭṭhigataṃ uppannaṃ hoti: ‘idaṃ niccaṃ, idaṃ dhuvaṃ, idaṃ sassataṃ, idaṃ kevalaṃ, idaṃ acavanadhammaṃ, idañhi na jāyati na jīyati na mīyati na cavati na upapajjati, ito ca panaññaṃ uttari nissaraṇaṃ natthī’ ti.
