The Nāga Saṃyutta is a Buddhist scripture of the Pali Canon. It is the 29th Saṃyutta in the Saṃyutta Nikāya, placed in the Khandha Vaggasaṃyutta. [1] [2]
The Nāga Saṃyutta, also known as the Linked Discourses on Dragons, [3] provides basic accounts of the nature of the nāgas; serpentine deities in Buddhist mythology. The Buddha describes these beings in regards to their mode of birth, hierarchy, as well as the reasons one may be reborn among them.
A total of fifty suttas are found in the text. Suttas 11-20 and 21-50 are each abbreviated into a single discourse.
