In this paper, I discuss the adequacy of the view point of the meaning of saddhā (skt. śraddhā; faith, belief, etc.) which K. R. Norman points out in regard to Dhp 97. Norman has a tendency to divide the meaning of saddhā into good and bad, and regards the latter as ‘desire.’ But saddhā in Dhp 97 does not have the meaning of ‘desire.’ It is difficult to define the meaning of saddhā as does Norman, which I argue through examining usages of saddhā concerning non-Buddhists in the Pali Canon.
