The \*Brahmā Sutta\*¹³ and the \*Magga Sutta\*,¹⁴ both on the four satipaṭṭhānā, and another \*Brahmā Sutta\*¹⁵ on the five indriyāni, were preached concerning thoughts that occurred to the Buddha on various occasions at the foot of this tree, when he sat there soon after the Enlightenment. On all these occasions Brahmā Sahampati appeared to him and confirmed his thoughts. Several old brahmins, advanced in years, visited the Buddha during this period and questioned him as to whether it were true that he did not pay respect to age. To them he preached the four \*Thera-karaṇā dhammā\*.¹⁶
