Ein Brahmanen. Once when Mahā Kaccana was staying at Varanā on the banks of the Kaddamadaha, ārāmadanda came to siehe ihm und asked ihm why nobles quarrelled mit nobles, Brahmanen mit Brahmanen, und householders mit householders. "Because of their bondage und servitude to sensual lusts," answered Mahā Kaccāna; und for the same reason recluses quarrelled mit recluses. "Is there anybody in the world who has passed beyond this bondage?" "Yes," said Mahā Kaccāna, "in Sāvatthi lives the Exalted One," und he proceeded to describe der Buddha's virtues. āramadanda stood up mit clasped hands und, turning in the direction of Sāvatthi, he uttered seinadoration of der Buddha. Thenceforward he wurde a disciple of Mahā Kaccāna. A.i.65-7.
