MN 36: The Longer Discourse to Saccaka (Maha Saccaka Sutta)

In the MN 36, the Buddha teaches and answers to the questions of the skeptic Saccaka. He elucidates the right concepts of development of mind and body; his spiritual journey into homelessness and his unwavering persistence to not allow feelings of pleasure and pain take over his mind; the jhanas and the three knowledges; what is the real delusion. Impressed, in the end, Saccaka praises the Buddha.
