His memory of Gotama was that “Jhāyī ceva so bhavam Gotamo ahosi jhānasīlī ca”, (MN. III. p. 13). With the Magadha Mahāmatta Vassakāra’s statement to Ānanda “Jhāyino ceva bhavanto jhānasīlino ca” (loc. cit.) may be compared the malicious observations of Māra “seyyathāpi nāma kotthu nadītīre macche magayanāno jhāyati pajjhāyati, nijjhāyati apajjhāyati, evamevime muṇḍakā samaṇakā ibbhā kiṇhā bandhupādāpaccā jhāyino’ smā jhāyino’ smā ti paṭṭakkhandhā adhomukhā madhurakajātā jhāyanti pajjhāyanti nijjhāyanti apajjhāyanti” (MN. I. p. 334), cf. Sk. I. 11, 27. Jahā dhaṅkā ya kaṅkā ya kulalā maggukā sihī. Macchesaṇaṃ jhiyāyanti jhāṇaṃ te kalusādhamam.” The reference is probably to the Buddhists see Ib. Vv. 25–6. Sakka (Sakko Devānam Indo) says to Pañcasikha: Durupasaṅkamā kho tāta Pañcasikha Tathāgatā mādisena jhāyī jhānaratā tadanantaraṃ paṭisallīnā” (DN. II. p. 196 Nāg. Ed.). (Is a distinction intended here between jhāna and Paṭisallāna?) - [Previous: c19.152](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.pande-1957.c19.152) - [Next: c19.154](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.pande-1957.c19.154) - [Up: c19](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.pande-1957.c19) ## Cites (3) - [Sūyagaḍa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.jaina.sveta.anga.2) — Sudharman, Ardhamāgadhī Prakrit - [Dīghanikāya](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.digha) — Pāli - [Majjhimanikāya](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.majjhima) — Pāli --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.pande-1957.c19.153](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.pande-1957.c19.153) · Pramāṇa
