First in Moranivapa

At one time the Blessed One was living at the wandering ascetics' monastery in Moranivapa in Rajagaha. The Blessed One addressed the bhikkhus from there.

Bhikkhus, endowed with three things the bhikkhu comes to the highest point, the complete end of unpleasantness, end of the holy life to the finale and becomes chief among gods and men. What three? With the mass of virtues of one gone beyond the training, with the mass of concentration of one gone beyond the training and with the mass of wisdom of one gone beyond the training. Bhikkhus, endowed with these three the bhikkhu comes to the highest point, the complete end of unpleasantness, end of the holy life, to the finale and becomes chief among gods and men.
