Radhakrishnan's edition of The Dhammapada provides the following quotation from Buddhaghosa as a commentary on Verse 179 (Chapt, 14, 1 Buddhavagga) where the Buddha is described as *apadam* trackless/signless:
> "The man who is possessed of even a single one of such conditions as
> *raga*, attachment, &c., him ye can lead forward; but the Buddha has not even one condition or basis of renewed existence, and therefore by
> what track will you lead this unconditioned Buddha?"
Could anyone tell me the source of this quotation and also provide me with the Pali?
