Memory
Cirakatasaraṇapañha (Mil 3.6 10)
The king said: ‘By what, Nāgasena, does one recollect what is past and done long ago?’
‘By memory.’
‘But is it not by the mind, not by the memory, that we recollect?’
‘Do you recollect any business, O king, that you have done and then forgotten?’
‘Yes.’
‘What then? Were you then without a mind?’
‘No. But my memory failed me.’
‘Then why do you say that it is by the mind, not by the memory, that we recollect?’
‘Very good, Nāgasena ’
‘By memory.’
