v1.c8.207

In the *Theragāthā Commentary*² we are told that the thera Pārāpariya (probably identical with Pārāsariya mentioned above) was taught the *Indriyabhāvana Sutta* by the Buddha. He learnt it by heart, and pondering over its meaning, attained insight. The *Theragāthā*³ gives a summary of the musings of Pārāpariya which lead to his attainment.
