Now at that time Venerable Anuruddha rose at the crack of dawn and recited passages of the teaching. Then the native spirit Piya\u1e45kara\u2019s Mother soothed her little child, saying: \u201cDon\u2019t make a sound, Piya\u1e45kara! A mendicant recites passages of the teaching. When we understand a passage, we can practice for our welfare. Let us restrain ourselves from harming living creatures, and speak no lying words. We should train ourselves well in ethics, and hopefully we\u2019ll be freed from the goblin realm.\u201d","title":"With Piya\u1e45kara","tradition":"Samyutta Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":95}
