Now at that time \u0100nanda was spending too much time persuading lay people. Then the deity haunting that forest had sympathy for \u0100nanda, wanting what\u2019s best for him. So they approached him wanting to stir him up, and recited these verses: \u201cYou\u2019ve left for the jungle, the root of a tree, having laid extinguishment in your heart. Meditate, Gotama, don\u2019t be negligent! What use is this hullabaloo to you?\u201d Impelled by that deity, Venerable \u0100nanda was struck with a sense of urgency.","title":"With \u0100nanda","tradition":"Samyutta Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":100}
