The Bodhisatta, at that time, was a learned brahmin, and, having met Bhīma, said that he was a sensualist (kāmabhogī), and his disciples agreed with him. It was for this reason the Buddha and five hundred monks suffered calumny at the hands of Sundarikā.¹ - [Previous: v2.c30.546](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.546) - [Next: v2.c30.548](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.548) - [Up: v2.c30](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.547](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c30.547) · Pramāṇa
