7.6

侍者答曰:「我聞童女迦葉將五百比丘遊拘薩羅國,至尸舍婆林,又聞其人有大名稱,已得羅漢,耆舊長宿,多聞廣博,聰明叡智,辯才應機,善於談論;彼諸人等,群隊相隨,欲詣迦葉共相見耳。」

His servants answered, “We’ve heard that Kaumāra Kāśyapa has made his way with 500 monks from Kośala to the rosewood grove nearby. We’ve also heard that he is quite famous. He’s a senior elder who became an arhat. He’s widely educated, intelligent, and wise. He’s as eloquent as the situation requires and skilled in holding discussions. Those people following each other in droves are going to see Kāśyapa.”
