[705] At one time the Blessed One was dwelling among the Kosalans in a certain forest grove. Now on that occasion the brahmin Navakammika Bhāradvāja was having work done in that forest grove. The brahmin Navakammika Bhāradvāja saw the Blessed One seated at the foot of a certain sāla tree, having folded his legs crosswise, holding his body erect, with mindfulness (sati) established in front of him. On seeing him, this thought occurred to him: "I find delight while having work done in this forest grove; but this ascetic (samaṇa) too — what does he have done that he finds delight?"
