For three months he avoided the Buddha, until, just before the Buddha was starting on a journey, Bhaddāli, acting on the advice of his fellow-monks, confessed his fault to the Buddha and begged for forgiveness.¹ The Buddha praised this action and preached to him the Bhaddāli Sutta (\*q.v.\*). - [Previous: v2.c30.188](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.188) - [Next: v2.c30.190](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.190) - [Up: v2.c30](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.189](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.189) · Pramāṇa
