2. Cunda Sutta (also called Mahā Cunda Sutta).—Preached by Mahā Cunda at Sahajātī to the assembled monks. Some, who are zealous about the Dhamma, speak disparagingly of those who are given to jhāna and vice versa. Sometimes it happens that those who are engaged in the Dhamma praise their fellows, and similarly with those devoted to jhāna. None of these things are profitable. Dhamma-zealots should learn to praise those eager for jhāna and vice versa.¹
