Cūḷahatthipadopamasutta

Suttapiṭaka · Majjhimanikāya · Vol. 12 · Section 337

[337] When his mind (citta) is thus concentrated (samādhi) — purified, bright, unblemished, rid of defilement, malleable, workable, steady, and attained to imperturbability — he directs the mind to the knowledge (ñāṇa) of the passing away and reappearance of beings. With the divine eye, purified and surpassing the human, … he understands beings as faring according to their kamma. This too, brahmin, is called a footprint of the Tathāgata, and also a place frequented by the Tathāgata, and also a mark scored by the Tathāgata. But not even at this point does the noble disciple come to the conclusion: 'The Blessed One is fully awakened; the Dhamma is well proclaimed by the Blessed One; the Saṅgha of the Blessed One's disciples is practicing well.'
