Kassapa Samyutta

The sixteenth section of the Samyutta Nikāya (S.ii.192-225). It contains various suttas connected with Mahā-Kassapa (q.v. for details). Mahā-Kassapa's verses in the Theragāthā reflect the sentiments contained in these suttas. The discussion on the lokiya-aspect of the sammappadhānā, as given in the Kassapa Samyutta, is referred to in the commentaries. E.g., VibhA.291.
