Brahmajalasutta 3.74

3.74.1

Evaṃ vutte, āyasmā ānando bhagavantaṃ etadavoca:

When he had spoken, Venerable Ānanda said to the Buddha,

3.74.2

“acchariyaṃ, bhante, abbhutaṃ, bhante, ko nāmo ayaṃ, bhante, dhammapariyāyo”ti?

“It’s incredible, sir, it’s amazing! What is the name of this exposition of the teaching?”

3.74.3

“Tasmātiha tvaṃ, ānanda, imaṃ dhammapariyāyaṃ atthajālantipi naṃ dhārehi, dhammajālantipi naṃ dhārehi, brahmajālantipi naṃ dhārehi, diṭṭhijālantipi naṃ dhārehi, anuttaro saṅgāmavijayotipi naṃ dhārehī”ti.

“Well then, Ānanda, you may remember this exposition of the teaching as ‘The Net of Meaning’, or else ‘The Net of the Teaching’, or else ‘The Divine Net’, or else ‘The Net of Views’, or else ‘The Supreme Victory in Battle’.”

3.74.4

Idamavoca bhagavā.

That is what the Buddha said.

3.74.5

Attamanā te bhikkhū bhagavato bhāsitaṃ abhinandunti.

Satisfied, the mendicants approved what the Buddha said.

3.74.6

Imasmiñca pana veyyākaraṇasmiṃ bhaññamāne dasasahassī lokadhātu akampitthāti.

And while this discourse was being spoken, the ten-thousandfold galaxy shook.

3.74.7

Brahmajālasuttaṃ niṭṭhitaṃ paṭhamaṃ.
