The Buddha seems to have shown a special regard for Sāriputta, Ānanda and Mahā Kassapa among the monks, and for Anāthapiṇḍika, Mallikā, Visakhā, Bimbisāra and Pasenadi among the laity. He seems to have been secretly amused by the very human qualities of Pasenadi and by his failure to appreciate the real superiority of Mallikā, his wife.
