Thus have I heard:
One time, the Budha was staying at Anaathapindidas Ashrama in Jetavana of Shraavastii.
At that time, Budha said to the bhikshus, “There are two kinds of people who attain immeasurable merit. Who are these two?
They are those who praise what is worthy of praise and do not praise what is not worthy of praise. These are the two who attain immeasurable merit.
There are also two kinds of people who incur immeasurable wrongdoing. Who are these two?
They are those who slander what is worthy of praise and praise what is not worthy of praise. Bhikshus, do not act in this way.”
When the bhikshus heard what the Budha said, they followed it with joy.
