1"Bhikkhus, there are these two kinds of assemblies. What two? The shallow assembly and the deep assembly.

"And what is the shallow assembly? The assembly in which the bhikkhus are restless, puffed up, vain, talkative, rambling in their talk, with muddled mindfulness, lacking in clear comprehension, unconcentrated, with wandering minds, with loose sense faculties, is called the shallow assembly.

"And what is the deep assembly? The assembly in which the bhikkhus are not restless, puffed up, vain, talkative, and rambling in their talk but have established mindfulness, clearly comprehend, are concentrated, with one-pointed minds and restrained sense faculties, is called the deep assembly.

"These, bhikkhus, are the two kinds of assemblies. Of these two kinds of assemblies, the deep assembly is foremost." [n.278] Here and in the following the text uses etadaggaṁ.

1"Dvemā, bhikkhave, parisā. Katamā dve? Uttānā ca parisā gambhīrā ca parisā.

Katamā ca, bhikkhave, uttānā parisā? Idha, bhikkhave, yassaṁ parisāyaṁ bhikkhū uddhatā honti unnaḷā capalā mukharā vikiṇṇavācā muṭṭhassatī asampajānā asamāhitā vibbhantacittā pākatindriyā. Ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, uttānā parisā.

2Katamā ca, bhikkhave, gambhīrā parisā? Idha, bhikkhave, yassaṁ parisāyaṁ bhikkhū anuddhatā honti anunnaḷā acapalā amukharā avikiṇṇavācā upaṭṭhitassatī sampajānā samāhitā ekaggacittā saṁvutindriyā. Ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, gambhīrā parisā. Imā kho, bhikkhave, dve parisā.

Etadaggaṁ, bhikkhave, imāsaṁ dvinnaṁ parisānaṁ yadidaṁ gambhīrā parisā"ti.
