1At one time the Buddha was staying in the land of the Vajjis at the village of Hatthi. Then the householder Ugga of Hatthi went up to the Buddha, sat down to one side, and said to him:

“What is the cause, sir, what is the reason why some sentient beings aren’t fully extinguished in the present life? What is the cause, sir, what is the reason why some sentient beings are fully extinguished in the present life?” …

This should be told in full as in the previous discourse.

1Ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā vajjīsu vihārati hatthigāme. Atha kho uggo gahapati hatthigāmako yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho uggo gahapati hatthigāmako bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:

"ko nu kho, bhante, hetu ko paccayo yena midhekacce sattā diṭṭheva dhamme no parinibbāyanti? Ko pana, bhante, hetu ko paccayo yena midhekacce sattā diṭṭheva dhamme parinibbāyantī"ti?

Yathā purimasuttantaṁ, evaṁ vitthāretabbaṁ.

"Ayaṁ kho, gahapati, hetu ayaṁ paccayo yena midhekacce sattā diṭṭheva dhamme parinibbāyantī"ti.

Dutiyaṁ.
