3.231 aṇagare nam bhamte! bhäviappä amāyī samadithi viriyaladdhie veuvviyaladdhie ohinäṇaladdhie rayagiham nagaram samohae, samohaṇittā vāṇārasie nagarie räväim jānai-päsai?
hamtā jāṇai-pāsai.
Bhagavai 3:6:222-234
Does' a self-cultivated ascetic, O Lord! who is not deceitful, is possessed of right view, and has attained energy power-potential, protean power-potential and clairvoyance power-potential, creates the city of Rajagṛha, and having done so know and see the corporeal objects in the city of Väräṇasī? "Yes, he knows and sees."
3.232 se bhamte! kim tahabhavam jāṇai-pāsai? aṇnahābhāvam jāṇai-păsai? goyama! tahabhavam jāṇai-pāsai, no aṇṇahābhāvam jāṇai-pāsai.
Does he, O Lord! know and see what is true, or what is not true? O Gautama! he knows and sees what is true, he does not know and see what is not true.
3.233 se keṇattheṇam bhamte! evam vuccai-tahābhāvam jāṇai-pāsai, no annahäbhavam jāṇai-pāsai?
goyamā! tassa ṇam evam bhavai-evam khalu aham rayagihe nayare samohae, samohaṇittä väṇāraste nayarte rûväim jāṇāmi-pāsāmi. sesa damsaṇa-avivaccăse bhavati. se teṇattheṇam goyama! evam vuccai-tahābhāvam jāṇai-pāsai, no annahābhāvam jānai-pāsai.
For what reason, O Lord! has it been said that he knows and sees what is true, he does not know and see what is not true?
O Gautama! it occurs to him: I exercise the protean power in the city of Rajagṛha; having done so I am knowing and seeing corporeal objects in the city of Vārāṇasī. This is his non-perversion of perception. For this reason, O Gautama! it is said that he knows and sees what is true. He does not know and see what is not true.
3.234 anagare nam bhamte! bhaviappā amāyī samadiṭṭhī vīriyaladdhie veuvviyaladdhie ohinäṇaladdhie vänärasim nagarim samohae, samohaṇittä rāyagihe nagare ravaim janai-pasai?
hamtā jānai-pasai.
Does a self-cultivated ascetic, O Lord! who is non-deceitful, is possessed of right view, create the city of Väräņasī by his energy power-potential, protean power-potential and clairvoyance power-potential? Having done so, does he, know and see the corporeal bodies situated in Rajagṛha?
"Yes, he knows and sees."
