21: The Miscellaneous Chapter – 262<br />

The faithful are held in esteem<br />

After being taught by Ven. Sāriputta, Citta the Householder<br />

attained the second stage of Awakening, and determined to go<br />

and see the Buddha; he arranged a great caravan and<br />

provided for all who wished to accompany him; he emptied his<br />

carts on the way, but upon leaving, the residents filled them<br />

with jewels; the Buddha reflected on what had happened with<br />

this verse.<br />

303. Saddho sīlena sampanno yasobhogasamappito,<br />

yaṁ yaṁ padesaṁ bhajati, tattha tattheva pūjito.<br />

The faithful one who is endowed<br />

with virtue, and has wealth and fame,<br />

whatever place he resorts to,<br />

right there and then he is worshipped.
