### [3.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.digha.4.3.13)

“soṇadaṇḍo bho brāhmaṇo evamāha:

> Now at that time Soṇadaṇḍa the Brahman had gone apart to the upper terrace of his house for his siesta, and seeing the people thus go by, he said to his doorkeeper: ‘Why are the people of Campā, going forth like this towards the Gaggarā Lake?’  
> Then the doorkeeper told him the news. And he said: ‘Then, good doorkeeper, go to the Brahmans and householders of Campā, and say to them: “Soṇadaṇḍa the Brahman desires them to wait. He will himself come to see the Samaṇa Gotama.”’  
> ‘Very well, Sir,’ said the doorkeeper, and he did so.  
> — Sonadanda Sutta (Dialogues of the Buddha)
