Hatthāroha sutta: An Elephant Marshal

Hatthārohasutta

Gāmaṇivagga

Hatthāroha the elephant warrior asks the Buddha whether the belief that warriors have a good rebirth is correct. The Buddha tries to dissuade him, but ultimately reveals that by following the way of violence they head to a bad rebirth. Hatthāroha is distressed and takes refuge.

Übersetzungen

Then an elephant marshal chief went up to the Buddha … “From this day forth, may the Buddha remember me as a lay follower who has gone for refuge for life.”
