[837] Thus have I heard. At one time the Blessed One was dwelling at Rājagaha, in the Veḷuvana, the squirrels' feeding ground. Then the venerable Sāriputta, having emerged from seclusion in the evening, approached the Blessed One; having approached, he paid homage to the Blessed One and sat down to one side. As the venerable Sāriputta was sitting to one side, the Blessed One said this to him: "Sāriputta, your faculties are serene, your complexion is pure and bright. In what abiding (vihāra) do you now mostly dwell, Sāriputta?"
"Venerable sir, I now mostly dwell in the abiding in emptiness (suññatāvihāra)."
