Kusalamūla sutta: Skillful Root

Kusalamūlasutta

Catutthavagga

Devadatta’s wholesome root was cut off due to material possessions, honor, and praise.

At Sāvatthī.

“Possessions, honor, and popularity are grim …

Devadatta cut off his skillful root because his mind was overcome and overwhelmed by possessions, honor, and popularity.

So grim are possessions, honor, and popularity. …”
