Nirodha Sutta
1. Nirodha Sutta.- SÄriputta tells Ä€nanda that he has attained to a state of cessation of perception and feeling. S.iii.238. 2. Nirodha Sutta.- SÄriputta tells the monks that one, who has achieved virtue, concentration and insight, may both enter the cessation of perception and feeling and also emerge there from. UdÄyin (LÄludÄyÄ«), who is present, contradicts this three times, but none upbraids him. SÄriputta’s words are repeated before the Buddha, and UdÄyin acts similarly. The Buddha rebukes Ä€nanda for not admonishing UdÄyin. Later, the Buddha talks of the matter to UpavÄna and tells him of five qualities which a monk should possess. A.iii.192ff.
