● MN 127 - 🔗🔊 16m, Anuruddha: (buddha's cousin, famous for divine eye):
MN 1271 – (layman Pañcakaṅga invites Anuruddha for meal offering, accepted)
MN 1272 - (layman asks if appamāṇā ceto-vimutti different than mahaggatā)
MN 1272.1 – (layman thinks they are the same practice, just different name)
MN 1272.2 – (Anuruddha corrects him, says they’re two different practices)
MN 1273 – (Anuruddha explains ap-pamāṇā/measure-less refers to 4bv brahma-vihāra pervaded in 8 directions)
MN 1274 – (Anuruddha explains mahag-gatā/expansive is pervading 4bv in gradually larger space starting with one tree)
MN 1275 - (4 kinds of deva realm rebirth commensurate with appamāna and mahaggatā)
MN 1275.1 – (oil lamp simile: devas gather ↔ can see different colors of flame, but not different radiance)
MN 1275.2 – (oil lamp simile: devas leave gathering ↔ can see different colors of flame, and different power of radiance)
MN 1275.3 – (flies following luggage simile ↔ devas delight in radiance, but don’t assume permanent identity with it)
MN 1276 – (Kaccana asks Anuruddha: are all devas reborn there limited or immeasurable?)
MN 1276.1 – (some are limited, some are limitless)
MN 1276.2 – (Why? Because some meditated pervading smaller space, some larger, some limtlesss)
MN 1277 – (Kaccana asks Anuruddha: Do all the radiant deities have corrupted radiance, or some pure?)
MN 1277.1 – (some are corrupted, some pure)
MN 1277.2 – (Why? Because some did jhāna with more 5 hindrance corruption, some more pure)
MN 1277.3 – (simile of oil lamp, purity of oil and wick ↔ jhāna meditator purity free of 5niv)
MN 1278 - (conclusion: Kaccana correctly guesses anuruddha is speaking from personal experience from conversation with devas)
