[Upāsakadaśāṅgasūtra]
The devata saw the resolute Śramaṇopāsaka Culaṇīpitā and said to him - "O Culaṇīpitā, Śramaṇopāsaka! You are determined to die! If you do not break your vow, then today I shall remove your middle son from your home, and just as I killed your elder son, I shall kill him too before your eyes. And even then, if you remain unmoved, I shall do the same with your younger son as well." But the Culaṇīpitā remained unshaken.
133. Then the devata saw the fearless Śramaṇopāsaka Culaṇīpitā and said to him again - "O Culaṇīpitā, Śramaṇopāsaka! You are determined to die! If you do not break your vow, then today I shall bring your mother Bhadrā, the venerable caravan leader, who is like a deity and preceptor, and who performs extremely difficult religious practices for your welfare - I shall bring her from your home and kill her before your eyes. I shall cut her body into three parts, boil them in a cauldron, and sprinkle your body with her flesh and blood, so that you may die a painful and untimely death through ārta-dhyāna and severe suffering."
