[104] On one occasion the Blessed One was dwelling at Rājagaha, in the Bamboo Grove, the Squirrels' Feeding Ground. Now on that occasion the Venerable Sāriputta, the Venerable Mahācunda, and the Venerable Channa were dwelling on Mount Gijjhakūṭa. And on that occasion the Venerable Channa was afflicted, suffering, gravely ill. Then in the evening the Venerable Sāriputta, having emerged from seclusion, approached the Venerable Mahācunda; having approached, he said this to the Venerable Mahācunda: "Come, friend Cunda, let us approach the Venerable Channa to inquire about his illness." "Yes, friend," the Venerable Mahācunda replied to the Venerable Sāriputta. Then the Venerable Sāriputta and the Venerable Mahācunda approached the Venerable Channa; having approached, they sat down on the prepared seats. Having sat down, the Venerable Sāriputta said this to the Venerable Channa: "I hope, friend Channa, that you are bearing up; I hope you are getting by; I hope the painful feelings (vedanā) are subsiding and not increasing, and that their subsiding, not their increasing, is evident."
