3. Tissa Sutta - Moggallana, hearing the Buddha report a conversation between two devatas at Gijjhakuta, visits the Brahma Tissa in order to discover if the devas had knowledge of saupadisesa and anupadisesa.

(Auto-Translation): The scripture discusses Tiththaya, who is the son of the Lord Buddha. It emphasizes the importance of practicing the teachings without being deluded and recognizes the existence of doubt regarding the attainment of truth. It speaks to the monks about Tiththaya's understanding of suffering - identifying it as attachment (Raga) in the five aggregates, the anxiety of craving (Thoka), the lamentation (Parideva), physical suffering (Dukkha), mental anguish (Domanassa), and extreme fatigue (Upayasa). When the attachment (Raga) from the five aggregates is abandoned, these moments of suffering cannot materialize, highlighting the impermanence of the five aggregates through this narration.
Pali is the language of the Tipiṭaka, which is the sacred canon of Theravāda Buddhism and contains much of the Buddha’s speech. Closeley related to Sanskrit, both languages are used interchangeably between religions.
