Dutiyasukka Sutta

Translation by Bhikkhuni Uppalavanna

1. At one time the Blessed One was living in the squirrels' sanctuary in the bamboo grove in Rajagaha.

2. At that time a certain lay disciple had given the bhikkhuni Sukka almsfood.

3. A non-human pleased with the bhikkhuni Sukka went from street to street and from junction to junction and said this stanza.


 * "Much merit accrues to that wise lay disciple
 * For giving alms to Sukka released and free from all bonds."
