________________ 203 free from anger, and free from malice, pure in mind, and master of himself. Then in sooth, Vâsettha, that the Bhikkhu who is free from anger, free from malice, pure in mind, and master of himself should after death, when the body is dissolved, become united with Brahmâ, who is the same-such a condition of things is every way possible!' III. TEVIGGA SUTTA. 9. When he had thus spoken, the young Brâhmans Vâsettha and Bhâradvâga addressed the Blessed One, and said: 'Most excellent, Lord, are the words of thy mouth, most excellent! Just as if a man were to set up that which is thrown down, or were to reveal that which is hidden away, or were to point out the right road to him who has gone astray, or were to bring a lamp into the darkness, so that those who have eyes can see external forms;-just even so, Lord, has the truth been made known to us, in many a figure, by the Blessed One. And we, even betake ourselves, Lord, to the Blessed One as our refuge, to the Truth, and to the Brotherhood. May the Blessed One accept us as disciples, as true believers, from this day forth, as long as life endures!' we, End of the Tevigga Suttanta. Digitized by Google
