sn35.132:14.1 “It’s incredible, worthy Kaccāna, it’s amazing!
sn35.132:14.2 How accurately you’ve explained someone whose sense doors are guarded!
sn35.132:14.3 Excellent, worthy Kaccāna! Excellent!
sn35.132:14.4 As if he were righting the overturned, or revealing the hidden, or pointing out the path to the lost, or lighting a lamp in the dark so people with clear eyes can see what’s there, the worthy Kaccāna has made the teaching clear in many ways.
sn35.132:14.5 I go for refuge to the Buddha, to the teaching, and to the mendicant Saṅgha.
sn35.132:14.6 From this day forth, may the worthy Kaccāna remember me as a lay follower who has gone for refuge for life.
sn35.132:14.7 Please come to my family just as you go to the families of the lay followers in Makkarakaṭa.
sn35.132:14.8 The brahmin boys and girls there will bow to you, rise in your presence, and give you a seat and water. That will be for their lasting welfare and happiness.”
