Language

7.96

時,婆羅門白迦葉言:「尊者初設月喻,我時已解,所以往返,不時受者,欲見迦葉辯才智慧,生牢固信耳。我今信受,歸依迦葉。」

The priest said to Kāśyapa, “Venerable, I had understood you when we discussed that first parable about the moon. I didn’t accept it at that point because I wanted to witness the eloquence and wisdom of Kāśyapa and solidify my belief. Now, I believe and accept [that there’s another world]. I take refuge in Kāśyapa.”
