The story tells of a time, the Buddha was dwelling at Gijhaguta Mount along with other 550 monks. Indra along with devas came to the Buddha to listen to the Dhamma sermon from the Buddha. Then the Buddha allowed Venerable Sariputta and Venerable Supattissa to preach a sermon on the perfections that all the Bodhisattvas used to have performed. The two monks questioned and answered each other about the thirty perfections. Anyone who often prays the perfections will be protected by the perfections and will gain the three properties including worldly property, heavenly property and Nirvana property.
