　　7. VASALASUTTA.

　　The Brâmana Aggikabhâradvâga is converted by Buddha, after hearing his definition of an outcast, illustrated by the story of Mâtanga, told in the Mâtangagâtaka. Comp. Sp. Hardy, The Legends and Theories of the Buddhists, p. 49.--Text and translation in Alwis”s Buddhist Nirvâna, p. 119.

　　 So it was heard by me: At one time Bhagavat dwelt at Sâvatthî, in Getavana, in the park of Anâthapindika. Then Bhagavat having put on his raiment in the morning, and having taken his bowl and his robes, entered Sâvatthî for alms. Now at that time in the house of the Brâmana Aggikabhâradvâga the fire was blazing, the offering brought forth. Then Bhagavat going for alms from house to house in Sâvatthî went to the house of the Brâmana Aggikabhâradvâga. The Brâmana Aggikabhâradvâga saw Bhagavat coming at a distance, and seeing him he said this: ”Stay there, O Shaveling; (stay) there, O Samanaka (i.e. wretched Samana); (stay) there, O Vasalaka (i.e. outcast)!”

　　 This having been said, Bhagavat replied to the Brâmana Aggikabhâradvâga: ”Dost thou know, O Brâmana, an outcast, or the things that make an outcast

　　”

　　 ”No, O venerable Gotama, I do not know an outcast, or the things that make an outcast; let the venerable Gotama teach me this so well that I may know an outcast, or the things that make an outcast."

　　 ”Listen then, O Brâmana, attend carefully, I will tell (thee).”

　　 ”Even so, O venerable one,” so the Brâmana Aggikabhâradvâga replied to Bhagavat.

　　 Then Bhagavat said this:

　　 1. ”The man who is angry and bears hatred, who is wicked and hypocritical, who has embraced wrong views, who is deceitful, let one know him as an outcast. (115)

　　 2. ”Whosoever in this world harms living beings, whether once or twice born, and in whom there is no compassion for living beings, let one know him as an outcast. (116)

　　 3. ”Whosoever destroys or lays siege to villages and towns, and is known as an enemy, let one know him as an outcast. (117)

　　 4. ”Be it in the village or in the wood, whosoever appropriates by theft what is the property of others and what has not been given, let one know him as an outcast. (118)

　　 5. ”Whosoever, having really contracted a debt, runs away when called upon (to pay), saying, "There is no debt (that I owe) thee," let one know him as an outcast. (119)

　　 6. ”Whosoever for love of a trifle having killed a man going along the road, takes the trifle, let one know him as an outcast. (120)

　　 7. ”The man who for his own sake or for that of others or for the sake of wealth speaks falsely when asked as a witness, let one know him as an outcast. (121)
