### [v1.c8.207](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.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.
