mn76:21.1 “Sandaka, take a certain teacher who claims to be all-knowing and all-seeing, to know and see everything without exception, thus:
mn76:21.2 ‘Knowledge and vision are constantly and continually present to me, while walking, standing, sleeping, and waking.’
mn76:21.3 They enter an empty house; they get no almsfood; a dog bites them; they encounter a wild elephant, a wild horse, and a wild cow; they ask the name and clan of a woman or man; they ask the name and path to a village or town.
mn76:21.4 When asked, ‘Why is this?’ they answer: ‘I had to enter an empty house, that’s why I entered it. I had to get no almsfood, that’s why I got none. I had to get bitten by a dog, that’s why I was bitten. I had to encounter a wild elephant, a wild horse, and a wild cow, that’s why I encountered them. I had to ask the name and clan of a woman or man, that’s why I asked. I had to ask the name and path to a village or town, that’s why I asked.’
