1. Kūṭa Sutta.– In a peaked house (kūṭāgāra) all the rafters converge towards the peak; so are all wrong states fixed together in ignorance. S.ii.262.

2. Kūṭa Sutta.– Similar to the above; all profitable conditions have earnestness as their peak. S.v.43.

3. Kūṭa Sutta.– Just as all the rafters slope to the peak, so do the seven factors of enlightenment (bojjhaṅga) tend towards nibbāna. S.v.75.

5. Kūṭa Sutta.– Of the five powers (saddhā, hirī, ottappa, viriya, paññā) the last is the peak (A.iii.10).
