[Suryaprajnapti Sutra]
[207
P. How do you say that the increase in muhutas is present? U. Gotama! You should say that there are twenty-seven muhutas and seventy-six parts of a muhuta.
|| Sutra 8 ||
Jao .................
This is a valuable thing, rare for the ignorant. It is the proclamation of the Bhagavati Joisraya. || 1 || This is to be kept secret, to be honored by the worthy. It should not be given to many, it should be given to the worthy. || 2 || (Faith) With enthusiasm, effort, strength, and diligence, one should test the learned saint. || 3 || He who is outside the family, clan, and assembly of the virtuous, who is deficient in knowledge and discipline, is a liar, a deceiver of the Arhats and the elders. || 4 || Therefore, one should hold fast to faith, enthusiasm, effort, strength, diligence, and knowledge. One should not give it to the undisciplined. || 5 || I bow down to the victorious Bhagavan, free from old age, death, defilements, and faults, with respect and reverence. || 6 || Sutra 107
