Rāmaṇeyyakasutta

Suttapiṭaka · Saṁyuttanikāya · Sagāthāvaggasaṁyutta · Vol. 15 · Section 921

[921] Park shrines (cetya) and forest shrines, and well-fashioned lotus ponds¹ — these are not worth a sixteenth part of a delightful human being. Whether in a village or in the wilderness, whether on low ground or on high, wherever the arahants (arahanto) dwell — that ground is delightful. #1 Ma. (Burmese edition): pokkharañño. The Yajamāna Sutta, the sixth.
