The Long Discourses (selected sūtras) 23.p98

Language: English

23.p98

“Sometimes, people say, ‘The king wants a large sacrifice, but his priestly great minister is descended from seven generations of fathers and mothers who weren’t genuine, so he’s always slighted by other people.’ Supposing this were said, it wouldn’t besmirch the king. Why is that? I’m descended from seven generations of fathers and mothers who were genuine, so I’m not slighted by other people.
