199.5

羅睺羅白佛言：「世尊是法根、法眼、法依。善哉！世尊！當為諸比丘廣說此義，諸比丘聞已，當受奉行。」

Rāhula said to the Buddha, “The Bhagavān is the Dharma root, the Dharma eye, and the Dharma basis. It would be good, Bhagavān, if you would give a detailed discourse on this subject for the monks! After they hear it, the monks will accept and approve of it.”
