[1][pts][than] Evaṃ me sutaṃ:|| ||

Atha kho āyasmā Ānando yen'āyasmā Sāriputto ten'upasaṅkhami.|| ||

Upasaṅkamitvā āyasmatā Sāriputtena saddhiṃ sammodi.|| ||

Sammodanīyaṃ kathaṃ sārāṇiyaṃ vīti-sāretvā eka-m-antaṃ nisīdi.|| ||

Eka-m-antaṃ nisinno kho āyasmā Ānando āyasmantaṃ Sāriputtaṃ etad avoca:|| ||

Ko nu kho āvuso Sāriputta hetu||
ko paccayo||
yena-m-idh'ekacce sattā diṭṭhe'va dhamme||
na parinibbāyantī ti?|| ||

Idh'āvuso Ānanda sattā imā hāna-bhāgiyā saññā ti yathā-bhūtaṃ na-p-pajānanti.|| ||

Ko pan'āvuso Sāriputta hetu||
