By grasping after nothing in the world, answered the Buddha, for Māra follows the man who clings to things. This question and answer are contained in the Bhadrāvudhamānava-puccha,² which is explained in the Culla Niddesa.³ At the end of the discourse, Bhadrāvudha and his pupils became arahants and joined the Order.⁴ - [Previous: v2.c30.251](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.251) - [Next: v2.c30.253](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.253) - [Up: v2.c30](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.252](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.252) · Pramāṇa
