Standing to one side, that deity recited this verse in the Buddha’s presence:
“කති ජාගරතං සුත්තා, කති සුත්තේසු ජාගරා; කතිභි රජමාදේති, කතිභි පරිසුජ්ඣතී”ති.
“How many sleep while others wake? How many wake among the sleeping? By how many do you gather dust? By how many are you cleansed?”
“පඤ්ච ජාගරතං සුත්තා, පඤ්ච සුත්තේසු ජාගරා; පඤ්චභි රජමාදේති, පඤ්චභි පරිසුජ්ඣතී”ති.
“Five sleep while others wake. Five wake among the sleeping. By five you gather dust. By five you’re cleansed.”
