The Dighajanu Sutta (Pali Dīghajāṇu sutta), also known as the Byagghapajja Sutta or Vyagghapajja Sutta, is part of the Anguttara Nikaya (AN 8.54).[1] For Theravadin scholars, this discourse of the Pāli Canon is one of several considered key to understanding Buddhist lay ethics.[2] In this discourse, the Buddha instructs a householder named Dīghajāṇu Vyagghapajja,[3] a Koliyan householder, on eight personality traits or conditions that lead to happiness and well-being in this and future lives.
