1"Bhikkhus, these two misrepresent the Tathāgata. Which two? One full of hate who harbors hatred and one endowed with faith because of his misunderstanding. These two misrepresent the Tathāgata." [n.241] Mp: "The former is exemplified by Sunakkhatta, who said: ‘The ascetic Gotama does not have any superhuman qualities’ (at MN 12.2, I 68,9–10). The latter is exemplified by a devotee whose faith is destitute of understanding, such as one who misrepresents the Tathāgata by claiming: ‘The Buddha is entirely world-transcending (buddho nāma sabbalokuttaro); all the parts of his body, such as the head hairs, are world-transcending.’" This latter comment seems to be a dig at the Lokottaravādins, a sub-sect of the Mahāsāṁghikas that held the Buddhas to be entirely world-transcendent.

1"Dveme, bhikkhave, tathāgataṁ abbhācikkhanti. Katame dve? Duṭṭho vā dosantaro, saddho vā duggahitena. Ime kho, bhikkhave, dve tathāgataṁ abbhācikkhantī"ti.
