Dear Mahinda, and Pali friends,

Thank you very much, Mahinda, for the information about the Sinhala
edition.

A person emailed me about the Thai edition of the words:

The Syaamara.t.tha edition, vol. 14, p. 241: "na kho aananda arahati
saavako satthaara.m anubandhitu.m yadida.m suttageyyaveyyaakara.nassa
sotu.m, ta.m kissa hetu."

I don't know Thai, so cannot confirm this information. Hopefully
someone here can help to confirm the words.

Can anyone help to translate the above-mentioned Thai Pali sentence?
Are there any big differences from the Sinhala and CSCD versions? Why
the PTS version has different words? (I thought that the PTS follows
closely the Sinhala edition?)

Thank you.

Thomas Law

P.S.:

PTS edition: "na kho, aananda, arahati saavako satthaara.m
anubandhitu.m yadida.m sutta.m geyya.m veyyaakara.nassa hetu." (MN
vol. 111, p. 115)

CSCD and Sinhala editions (page unknown), and the commentary
(Papa~ncasuudanii)(page unknown):
"na kho, ... yadida.m sutta.m geyya.m veyyaakara.na.m tassa hetu."
