Source: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper Names

The twenty ninth sutta of the Digha Nikaya.

Cunda Samanuddesa, who had been spending the rainy season at Pava, returns and reports to Ananda the death of Nigantha Nataputta and the consequent wrangling which had broken out among the Niganthas. Together they visit the Buddha at Samagama and tell him of it. He replies that this is to be expected from the character of Nataputta and from the doctrine which he taught. The Buddha then proceeds to give in detail the qualities of the perfect teacher and the perfect teaching. The Tathagata is such a teacher and the Dhamma such a teaching (D.iii.117 41).

In the Pasadika Sutta the threefold training is called brahmacariya. DA.i.179; MA.i.275.
