20.8.799

titthaṃ bhaṃte! titthaṃ? titthagare titthaṃ?
goyamā! arahā tāva niyamaṃ titthakare, titthaṃ puṇa cāuvaṇṇe samaṇasaṃghe, taṃ jahā–samaṇā, samaṇīo, sāvayā, sāviyāo|

"Venerable Sir, is the tirth the tirth, or is the tīrthaṅkara the tirth?"
"Gautama! The arhat is indeed necessarily the maker of the tirth (tīrthaṅkara), but the tirth is the fourfold śramaṇa-saṅgha, namely: monks, nuns, laymen, and laywomen."
