Nandakovaada | Majjhima | Uparipa.n.naasa, Sa.laayatana Vagga | MN.146 | M.iii.270ff. | 23/450 | senses | The first part of the sermon is a catechism, the second is more explanatory and contains similes illustrating the impermanence of the senses and sense-objects. The sermon ends with the seven bojjhangas. After the sermon the nuns visit the Buddha, who seeing that their minds are ripe, asks Nandaka to repeat the sermon to them the next day. Nandaka does so and their enlightenment is assured. |
