AN 9.11 After the rains season, Sāriputta takes leave of the Buddha. Another monk falsely accuses Sāriputta of hitting him before leaving. The Buddha calls Sāriputta to answer the accusation. Before the Saṅgha, Sāriputta denies it, uttering a powerful statement of spiritual prowess.
AN 9.12 Sāriputta visits some wanderers, who claim that only perfected ones are free from bad rebirth. Sāriputta has no opinion on this, but asks the Buddha, who replies that even stream-enterers are freed from lower rebirth.
AN 9.13 Venerables Mahākoṭṭhita and Sāriputta discuss whether the spiritual path is for the purpose of changing the results of deeds.
AN 9.14 Sāriputta questions Venerable Samiddhi on the basis of intentions and thoughts.
AN 9.15 The body is compared to a boil with nine orifices.
AN 9.16 Nine perceptions to be developed in meditation.
An 9.17 Nine factors in how a family relates to the Saṅgha.
AN 9.18 Nine factors for a glorious sabbath: the eight precepts and the meditation on love.
AN 9.19 Some deities come to the Buddha and speak of how their practice in their past life was limited and unsatisfactory.
AN 9.20 The wealthy and devoted lay supporter Anāthapiṇḍika rather curiously says that only poor alms are given in his home. The Buddha praises gracious and bounteous generosity. But meditation surpasses even the greatest offering.
