[1] Thus have I heard:
Once the Exalted One was staying near Rājagaha in Jivaka's Mango Grove.
Then a certain brother came to see the Exalted One
on coming to him greeted him courteously,
and after the exchange of greetings and compliments
sat down at one side.
Seated at one side he said to the Exalted One:
"Pray, lord, how knowing,
how seeing,
does one abandon wrong view?"
