Dutiyasukkā sutta: With the Nun Sukkā (2nd)
Dutiyasukkāsutta
Indakavagga
A spirit was full of faith in the nun Sukkā, so he went about the towns and villages singing the benefits of giving her offerings.
Translations
At one time the Buddha was staying near Rājagaha in the Bamboo Grove, the squirrels’ feeding ground.
Now at that time a certain lay follower gave food to the nun Sukkā. Then a native spirit was so devoted to Sukkā that he went from street to street and from square to square, and on that occasion recited these verses:
“O! He has made so much merit!
That lay follower is so very wise.
He just gave food to Sukkā,
who is released from all ties.”
