EA 50.8 is only a partial parallel to MN 21. Its first part agrees with MN 21 in having the monk Moliyaphagguna (~茂羅破群) associating excessively with nuns. The remainder of EA 50.8 agrees rather with MN 22, as in EA 50.8 the claim that sensuality is no obstacle to progress is made by Moliyaphagguna, while in MN 22 it is made by another monk, Ariṭṭha. EA 50.8 thereafter agrees with MN 22 in having the Buddha correct this mistaken view and deliver the snake simile. We therefore list EA 50.8 as a partial parallel to both MN 21 and MN 22.
