Majjhimānikāyasutta about afterlife

Post by Ṭhānuttamo »

Greetings,
does anybody happen to know about the sutta in the majjhimanikāya where a monk is convincing a householder about the afterlife, pointing out the sun and the moon, for example, as evidence? I searched but couldn't get at it. Which one is it?

Thank you!

I believe you are looking for the Payasi Sutta, DN 23
