CASE 4: The World-Honored One Points to the Ground

When the World-Honored One was walking with his assembly, he pointed to the ground with
his hand and said, “This place is good for building a temple.” Indra2 took a stalk of grass
and stuck it in the ground and said, “The temple has been built.” The World-Honored One
smiled.

  1. Lisa reminded me that a lot of this is about building your temple where you are–not somewhere else–Buddha did not need to leave his wife and kid.
