Chapter Seventy-Five: Tears of Happiness<br />

The Buddha departs from Magadha and returns to Savatthi for the retreat season. The Buddha delivers the Singala Sutta. Lay disciple<br />

Sudatta falls gravely ill. The Buddha creates the Eight Observances for the Laity. Venerables Sariputta and Ananda visit Sudatta and offer<br />

him teaching.<br />

Magandiya Sutta (M. 75); Culadhammasammadana Sutta (M. 45); Singala Sutta (D. 31); Anathapindikovada Sutta (M. 143); Tchong<br />

135 (T. 26); Tsa 1031 and 1032 (T. 99); Tseng 51, 8 (T. 125); Fo Chouo Che Kia Yue Viet Lieou Fang Li King (T. 16); Fo Chouo Pa<br />

Koan Tchai King (T. 89).<br />

For the section on sense pleasures and the leper roasting himself on a fire in the forest, look at M. 75. The four kinds of happiness are<br />

described in M. 45. The episode of Sudatta’s tears when he listens to the two venerables teach the Dharma is taken from M. 143. See also<br />

Tchong 28 (T. 26).
