Standing to one side, that deity recited this verse in the Buddha’s presence:
“सत्तिया विय ओमट्ठो, डय्हमानोव मत्थके; कामरागप्पहानाय, सतो भिक्खु परिब्बजे”ति।
“Sattiyā viya omaṭṭho, ḍayhamānova matthake; Kāmarāgappahānāya, sato bhikkhu paribbaje”ti.
“Like they’re struck by a sword, like their head was on fire, a bhikkhu, mindful, should go forth, to give up sensual desire.”
“सत्तिया विय ओमट्ठो, डय्हमानोव मत्थके; सक्कायदिट्ठिप्पहानाय, सतो भिक्खु परिब्बजे”ति।
