Pasūra Sutta
The eighth sutta of the Atthaka Vagga of the Sutta Nipāta. Preached to Pasūra at Jetavana. Disputants quarrel with each other and call each other fools; they wish for praise and, failing to get it, become discontented. No one is purified by dispute (SN.vs.824, 834). This sutta is commented on in the Mahā Niddesa (pp. 161ff).
