[Magadhi] [MN86, Aṅgulimālasutta] The Killer and The Riddle

This scripture chronicles the dramatic transformation of Aṅgulimāla, a brutal serial killer, into a saint through his life-changing encounter with the Buddha. Once a figure of terror who claimed countless lives, he was overwhelmed by the Buddha’s spiritual power and wisdom, leading him to cease his violence and become a disciple. After his ordination, he endured the scorn and physical attacks of the public—the bitter fruits of his past actions—with silent patience, eventually attaining the state of an Arahant. Through this story, the Buddha demonstrates that the power of the Dhamma is stronger than any violence and that anyone can achieve salvation and peace through genuine self-restraint and repentance. Ultimately, this narrative celebrates the spiritual victory of a practitioner who washed away his past and was reborn in the True Dhamma.
