Sramana Bhagavān Mahāvīra
During the night when Śramana Bhagavan Mahāvīra passed away,...till ended all misery, during that night was born the insect called 'kunthu anuddhari', which, when not moving but at rest, is not easily visible to the young monks and nuns, but when it's moving, and is not at rest, can be easily seen by the young monks and nuns.

From now on, restraint would be difficult to observe. 133
