ud3.5:0.1Heartfelt Sayings 3.5
ud3.5:0.2With Mahāmoggallāna
ud3.5:1.1So I have heard.
ud3.5:1.2At one time the Buddha was staying near Sāvatthī in Jeta’s Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s monastery.
ud3.5:1.3Now at that time Venerable Mahāmoggallāna was sitting not far from the Buddha, cross-legged, with his body straight and mindfulness of the body well-established in himself.
ud3.5:1.4The Buddha saw him meditating there.
ud3.5:2.1Then, understanding this matter, on that occasion the Buddha expressed this heartfelt sentiment:
ud3.5:3.1“With mindfulness of the body established,
ud3.5:3.2restrained in the six fields of contact,
ud3.5:3.3a mendicant always immersed in samādhi
ud3.5:3.4would know extinguishment in themselves.”
