Sutta: The Arahant
translated
from the Pali by
Maurice
O’Connell Walshe
The Pali
title of this sutta is based on the PTS (Feer) edition.
[Deva:]
He
who’s an Arahant, his work achieved,
Free from
taints, in final body clad,
That
monk still might use such words as “I.”
Still
perchance might say: “They call this mine.”
…
Would
such a monk be prone to vain conceits?
[The
Blessed One:]
Bonds
are gone for him without conceits,
All
delusion’s chains are cast aside:
Truly
wise, he’s gone beyond such thoughts.[1]
That
monk still might use such words as “I,”
Still
perchance might say: “They call this mine.”
Well
aware of common worldly speech,
He
would speak conforming to such use.[2]

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.
BUDDHA (EDUCATE)! DHAMMA

Using such an instrument
The Free ONLINE e-Nālandā Research and Practice
University has been re-organized to function through the following Schools of
Learning :
Buddha’s
Sangha Practiced His Dhamma Free of cost, hence the Free- e-Nālandā
Research and Practice University follows suit
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.
