Homage to that Blessed One, the perfected one, the fully awakened Buddha! Namo tassa Bhagavato Arahato Sammāsambuddhassa.

When some have an unfailing basis, “Apaṇṇakaṁ ṭhānameke, while sophists speak of a second way, Dutiyaṁ āhu takkikā; an intelligent person, knowing this, Etadaññāya medhāvī, would take up what is unfailing. Taṁ gaṇhe yadapaṇṇakan”ti.

Apaṇṇakajātakaṁ paṭhamaṁ.
