1. Heartfelt Sayings 4.10
2. The Peacefulness of Sāriputta
3. So I have heard.
4. At one time the Buddha was staying near Sāvatthī in Jeta’s Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s monastery.
5. Now at that time Venerable Sāriputta was sitting not far from the Buddha, cross-legged, with his body straight, reviewing his own peacefulness.
6. The Buddha saw him meditating there.
7. Then, understanding this matter, on that occasion the Buddha expressed this heartfelt sentiment:
8. “With mind at peace, so full of peace,
9. for a mendicant who has cut the cord,
10. transmigration through births is finished:
11. they’re freed from Māra’s bonds.”
