## The Scattering of the Eager Refusal
Gosaala, your disciple, was of the white caste. He died while meditating on the Dharma and was reborn among the gods. ||43||
In this body, I, the sage Udayana, endured the trials of suffering. Abandoning my own form, ||44||
Then, not recognizing me, you called Gosaala, the son of Mankhala, your disciple. How can you call him your disciple when you are not my teacher? ||45||
My lord, just as a traveler, while walking through mud, a pit, a fortress, or a forest, ||46||
may think himself covered by wool, hemp, cotton, or grass, being of little intelligence, ||47||
so too, you, Gosaala, falsely claim yourself to be different. Why do you speak falsely? He is your equal, not your superior. ||48||
Thus, angered by the words of his lord, Gosaala spoke to the Lord: "Today, you are corrupt, you are lost, you are not a Kashyapa!" ||49||
The disciple of the omniscient, the one who experiences all, the one who is devoted to the path, ||50||
was unable to bear those words. Gosaala spoke to the Lord: "By whom were you initiated, by whom were you taught, O Gosaala? You are he!" ||51||
Then, Gosaala, in anger, released a blazing ray of energy, like a poisonous fire from the eyes, for the experience of all. ||52||
Being consumed by the blazing energy of Gosaala, the one who experiences all, ||53||
the one who was devoted to good meditation, died and became a god in the Sahasrara. ||53||
Gosaala, at that time, proud of his own power of energy, ||54||
was eager to rebuke the Lord again and again. ||54||
His disciple, Sunakshatra, a good star, then rebuked his lord, the one who was criticizing his teacher, ||55||
with great devotion to his teacher, as one who experiences all. ||55||
Gosaala, with his blazing body, released by the energy ray, ||56||
circumambulated the Lord, taking on more vows. ||56||
Then, after reflecting and retracting, forgiving all the sages, ||57||
the sage Sunakshatra died and became a god in the realm of Achyuta. ||57||
(Pair) Jita-Kashi and Gosaala, then, with very harsh words, ||58||
cried out to the world, their Lord, who was full of compassion. ||58||
"You were initiated, you were taught, you were made a scholar by me. You are my own, a slanderer. What is this confusion in your mind?" ||59||
Being told by the Lord, "It is you yourself," Gosaala, greatly angered, ||60||
approached and said something to the Lord, with a blazing ray of energy. ||60||
The Lord, who is not subject to the power of others, like a great wind on a mountain, ||61||
circumambulated the Lord, a devotee, following the path of devotion. ||61||
The Lord's body was scorched by that blazing ray of energy, ||62||
like a forest fire consuming the water of a river, originating from the banks. ||62||
"This is not right, this is a disgrace," she thought in anger. ||63||
