Anubuddha
Sutta: Understanding
I have heard that on one occasion the Blessed One was staying
among the Vajjians atBhanda Village. There he addressed the monks, “Monks!”
“Yes, lord,” the
monks responded.
The Blessed One said:
“It’s because of not understanding and not penetrating four things that we
have wandered & transmigrated on such a long, long time, you & I. Which
four?
“It’s because of not
understanding and not penetrating noble virtue that we have wandered &
transmigrated on such a long, long time, you & I.
“It’s because of not
understanding and not penetrating noble concentration that we have wandered
& transmigrated on such a long, long time, you & I.
“It’s because of not
understanding and not penetrating noble discernment that we have wandered &
transmigrated on such a long, long time, you & I.
“It’s because of not
understanding and not penetrating noble release that we have wandered &
transmigrated on such a long, long time, you & I.
“But when noble virtue
is understood & penetrated, when noble concentration… noble
discernment… noble release is understood & penetrated, then craving for
becoming is destroyed, the guide to becoming (craving & attachment) is
ended, there is now no further becoming.”
That is what the Blessed
One said. When the One Well-gone had said that, he — the Teacher — said
further:
Unexcelled
virtue, concentration,
discernment,
& release:
have
been understood by Gotama of glorious stature.
Having
known them directly,
he
taught the Dhamma to the monks —
the
Awakened One
the
Teacher who has put an end to suffering & stress,
the
One with vision
totally
unbound.

All 84,000 Khandas As Found in the
Pali Suttas
|
Traditionally |
The
discourses of Buddha are divided into 84,000, as to separate addresses. The
division includes all that was spoken by Buddha.”I received from Buddha,” said
Ananda, “82,000 Khandas, and from the
priests 2000; these are 84,000 Khandas maintained by me.” They are divided into
275,250, as to the stanzas of the original text, and into 361,550, as to the
stanzas of the commentary. All the discourses including both those of Buddha
and those of the commentator, are divided
into 2,547 banawaras, containing 737,000 stanzas, and 29,368,000
separate letters.

As
the Original Nālandā University did not offer any Degree, so also the
Free e-Nālandā Research and Practice University.
The teachings of Buddha are eternal, but even then
Buddha did not proclaim them to be infallible. The religion of Buddha has the
capacity to change according to times, a quality which no other religion can
claim to have…Now what is the basis of Buddhism? If you study carefully, you
will see that Buddhism is based on reason. There is an element of flexibility
inherent in it, which is not found in any other religion.
