# With Poṭṭhapāda 33.23

Poṭṭhapādasutta 33.23

- **Language:** Pāli

### [33.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.digha.9.33.23)

Ayaṃ dukkhanirodhoti kho, poṭṭhapāda, mayā ekaṃsiko dhammo desito paññatto.

> ‘All those mendicants, Poṭṭhapāda, are blind, and see not. You are the only one, with eyes to see, among them. Some things, Poṭṭhapāda, I have laid down as, certain, other things I have declared  uncertain. The latter are those ten questions that you raised, and for the reasons given I hold them matters of uncertainty. The former are the Four Truths I expounded, and for the reasons given I hold them to be matters of certainty.
