Chapter 2: Collection of Examples
Then, even with their lamentations, the Lord remained unmoved in his mind. The wicked one, having made his abode in the form of a mountain, created a mountain of suffering. ||62||
There, unable to find a grinding stone, the wicked one, with great care, placed a pot on the fire. He placed the Lord's feet on the hearth and placed the pot on them. ||63||
At that time, the fire, ignited by him, blazed fiercely. The fire, like a forest fire at the foot of the mountain of the Lord of the world, blazed. ||64||
Even though the Lord was heated, his glory did not diminish, like that of gold. Then, the wicked one made a terrible, cooked dish. ||65||
The cooked dish, even though it was on the Lord's throat, ears, shoulders, and shanks, hung like a cage of small birds. ||66||
The birds, with their beak and claws, pecked at the Lord's body. Thus, his body became like a cage full of holes. ||67||
When the cooked dish, like a cooked leaf, became useless, it produced a great storm. ||68||
It uprooted great trees in the sky, threw up grass, scattered dust in all directions, and threw up crabs. ||69||
It filled the womb of the sky with ashes, and uprooted trees, and that wind struck the Lord. ||70||
Even with that fierce wind, the wicked one, whose family was stained with sin, did not give up his desire. He created a wind that was like a stain. ||71||
The wicked one, who was able to make the earth tremble, made the Lord, who was like a lump of clay on a wheel, spin. ||72||
The Lord, spinning like a whirlpool in the ocean, did not lose his focus, even in his mind. ||73||
This one, whose mind was like a diamond, was repeatedly insulted in many ways. He did not get angry, thinking, "How can I break the city of my enemies?" ||74||
The wicked one thought, "If his life is taken, his meditation will be destroyed, and not otherwise." He created a wheel of time. ||75||
Then, the wicked one, like Ravana lifting Mount Kailasa, lifted a mountain of a thousand pots. ||76||
Thinking that he had created another pot to seal the earth, he jumped up and threw the wheel of time on the Lord. ||77||
The flames, leaping up, filled all directions with terror. The fire fell on the Lord of the world, like a fire in the ocean. ||78||
The Lord, unable to withstand the blow of the wicked one, sank into the earth. ||79||
Even in this state, the Lord did not grieve, thinking, "We are the cause of the world's suffering, so we must save the world." ||80||
Even though he was struck by the wheel of time, he did not die. What other way is there to save him? ||81||
Thinking, "If the suffering is favorable, then I will be angry," the Lord, sitting in his chariot, stood before the wicked one and spoke. ||82||
The wicked one, who was full of evil thoughts, showed the Lord the morning, even though it was not the time, and the sky was full of birds. ||83||
Thinking that this was a divine illusion, the wicked one, who was full of pride, did not give up his meditation, even though he was attacked. ||84||
