What do you think, mendicants? Which is more: the seven pebbles the size of mung beans, or Sineru, the king of mountains?\u201d \u201cSir, Sineru, the king of mountains, is certainly more. The seven pebbles the size of mung beans are tiny. Compared to Sineru, it\u2019s not nearly a hundredth, a thousandth, or a hundred thousandth part.\u201d \u201cIn the same way, compared with the achievements of a noble disciple accomplished in view, the achievements of the ascetics, brahmins, and wanderers of other religions is not nearly a hundredth, a thousandth, or a hundred thousandth part. So great is the achievement of the individual accomplished in view, so great is their direct knowledge.\u201d The Linked Discourses on comprehension are complete.","title":"A Mountain (3rd)","tradition":"Samyutta Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":140}
