After emerging from seven days of concentration, the Bhagavā relocated from the Bodhi tree to the goatherd's banyan Tree, where he sat for another seven days experiencing the bliss of liberation. Here, a disapproving `brāhmaṇa` approached and asked what defines a true brāhmaṇa and their qualities. The Bhagavā responded with an inspired utterance, stating that a true brāhmaṇa is one who has discarded evil qualities, is free from arrogance and defilements, is self-controlled, perfected in knowledge, has lived the holy life, and has no worldly attachments, thus rightly able to claim the title 'brāhmaṇa'.
