1At Sāvatthī. Standing to one side, that devata recited this verse in the presence of the Blessed One:

2v.11 "Those who have not penetrated things,
Who may be led into others’ doctrines,
Fast asleep, they have not yet awakened:
It is time for them to awaken." [n.14] Spk identifies the dhamma of pāda a as the catusaccadhamma, "the things (or teachings) of the four (noble) truths." Who may be led into others’ doctrines: Spk: The doctrines of the other spiritual sects apart from the Buddha’s Teaching are called "others’ doctrines" (paravada); specifically, the doctrines of the sixty-two views referred to in DN1. Some tend to these doctrines of their own accord, some are led into them and adopt them through the influence of others.

The Blessed One:

3v.12 "Those who have penetrated things well,
Who cannot be led into others’ doctrines,
Those awakened ones, having rightly known,
Fare evenly amidst the uneven." [n.15] Those awakened ones (sambuddha). Spk: There are four kinds of awakened ones: omniscient Buddhas, paccekabuddhas, "four-truth awakened ones" (i.e., arahant disciples), and those awakened through learning. The first three types are indicated in the present context. They fare evenly amidst the uneven: they fare evenly amidst the uneven common domain of the world, or amidst the uneven community of sentient beings, or amidst the uneven multitude of defilements.

1Sāvatthinidānaṁ. Ekamantaṁ ṭhitā kho sā devatā bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi:

2"Yesaṁ dhammā appaṭividitā,
Paravādesu nīyare;
Suttā te nappabujjhanti,
Kālo tesaṁ pabujjhitun"ti.

3"Yesaṁ dhammā suppaṭividitā,
Paravādesu na nīyare;
Te sambuddhā sammadaññā,
Caranti visame saman"ti.
