1 Ekaṃ samayaṃ bhagavā rājagahe viharati veḷuvane kalandakanivāpe. Atha kho soṇo gahapatiputto yena bhagavā tenupasankami; upasankamitvā bhagavantaṃ abhivādetvā ekamantaṃ nisīdi. Ekamantaṃ nisinno kho soṇo gahapatiputto bhagavantaṃ etadavoca:  "ko nu kho, bhante, hetu, ko paccayo yena midhekacce sattā diṭṭheva dhamme no parinibbāyanti? Ko pana, bhante, hetu, ko paccayo yena midhekacce sattā diṭṭheva dhamme parinibbāyantī"ti? (Yathā purimasuttantaṃ, evaṃ vitthāretabbaṃ.) Ayaṃ kho, soṇa, hetu, ayaṃ paccayo yena midhekacce sattā diṭṭheva dhamme parinibbāyantīti.

Pañcamaṃ.
