This is how I hear.

One time the Buddha was in Anguttarapa. Apana is a town of Anguttarapa.

Then the morning of the morning, he took y, holding the bowl, go to Apana for alms. After going begging, eating, on the way back to begging, the Buddha went to a forest for lunch. After going into the forest, he sat under a tree.

The Potaliya family, dressed in full body, wearing umbrellas, sandals, clams and hiking everywhere, and went to the forest. After going into the forest, the Potaliya master, to the Blessed One, arrives and speaks to the Blessed One, after expressing his inquiries, his friendship and standing on one side. The Buddha said to Potaliya Home is standing on one side:

- This house, there are seats. If you want, sit down.

Hearing this, the Potaliya homeowner thought, "Gotama calls me by the name of the Host", so indignant is not happy and stood still. The second time, the Blessed One said to Potaliya Home:

- This house, there are seats. If you want, sit down.

The second time, the Potaliya homeowner thought, "Gotama calls me by the name of the Host", so angry, not happy and standing still. The third time, the Blessed One told the Potaliya owner:

- This house, there are seats. If you want, sit down.

Hearing this, the Potaliya master thought: "Gotama called me with the title of Home," so indignant, not happy, told the Exalted:

- Evangeline Gotama, it is not appropriate, not right, the author called me Home.

- Master, but your image, your appearance, your appearance is like a home.

- But Gotama, all the business that I have given up, all the persecutions have been broken.

- But this Host Family, how all the business was he abandoned, all the proceedings were he broke?

- Here, this Pharaoh Gotama, property, grain, or gold, all assigned to my children inherited. Here, I do not advise, I do not interrupt; I live with minimal food, clothing. Thus, this Phra Gotama, all the business I have given up, all the persecutions I have broken.

- The Homeowner, the end of the claims he says is different from the dissolution of the laws of the Holy Law.

- What is the end of the proceedings in the law of the Holy? Lord Buddha, good evening, if the Buddha told me about the end of the curriculum in the law of the holy.

What a fetish, what a hindrance, it is this double-edema.

" He remembers many past lives together with outlines and details.

Dear Master, this holy disciple, after achieving this ultimate purity, with pure celestial celestial beings, see the life and death of beings, the lower nobility, beautiful people rough bad luck lucky people are due to their business. He thinks, "Indeed, these beings accomplish the deeds of the body, the accomplishments of the virtues of the words, the attainment of the virtues of the mind, the defilement of the saints, the wrong view, the creation of the These people, after the general collapse of the body, must be born in the realm of evil, the beast, the land, the hell, etc. These beings accomplish good deeds on the body, achievements of good deeds On the words, achievements of the virtuous in mind, do not defame the saint, according to right view, create karma according to right view, these people, Be born in the beast, Heavenly, in this life. Thus, he with pure celestial sphere, superman, see the living beings of death. He is clear knowledge that beings, low people high, beautiful people bad people, lucky people are miserable due to their business.
