Suttanipata 3.7.1.1

3.7.1.1

Evaṃ me sutaṃ—

Keniya, the Gatila, invites Buddha with his assembly to take his meals with him on the morrow. Sela, the Brâmana, arrived at that place with his three hundred young men; seeing the preparations he asks what is going on, and is answered that Buddha is expected the next day. On hearing the word 'Buddha,' Sela asks where Buddha lives, goes to him, converses with him, and is converted; so are his followers. So it was heard by me: At one time Bhagavat wandering about in Anguttarâpa, with a large assembly of Bhikkhus, with 1250 Bhikkhus, went to Âpana, a town in Anguttarâpa.
