These were old roads, dismissed as meandering paths to a dead superstition by most all who still remembered them. Rei and Zack had wandered this way before, and knew better. Even though it wasn\u2019t the first time the ninjas had come this way, Rei felt increasingly uneasy about how much the scenery had changed. \u201CThis isn\u2019t right,\u201D she called back to Zack, continuing to push on just ahead of him. \u201CNone of these plants were here the last time we came this way.\u201D \u201CUh, newsflash for you, Rei,\u201D Zack huffed in reply. \u201CSometimes trees grow in places where they weren\u2019t before. It has a little something to do with seeds, and botany, and\u2026 well, you know where I\u2019m going with this.\u201D The azure-haired warrior turned and stopped suddenly, causing Zack to screech to a halt in turn. She promptly knocked him on the head. \u201CYou maroon! This is a canyon, an arid region! Plants don\u2019t just take root here out of the blue. Plus there are trees here\u2026 old trees, the kinds you only see in the darkest parts of a forest.\u201D \u201CHey, yeah, I guess you\u2019re right,\u201D Zack admitted, rubbing his head. \u201CNow that you mention it, this doesn\u2019t even seem like the same way we went last time. D\u2019you think the Prophet\u2019s got something to do with it?\u201D \u201CThat\u2019ll be one of the first things I\u2019ll ask him, to be sure,\u201D she replied. \u201CC\u2019mon, Zack, we don\u2019t have far to go.\u201D Just beyond another craggy wall, the ninjas found themselves standing before the pillared gateway to an enormous hidden temple\u2026 the Pikhal Temple. The history of the shrine reached back into the early chapters of mankind\u2019s history, not unlike the Temple of Hiskor. The similarities ended there, however. This shrine was not a ruin, and though unadorned with gold and treasure it had a majesty all its own. This was a temple maintained by the care of men and women who continued to live and cultivate life within, generation after generation. Two such inhabitants, robed in white, came to greet the ninjas even now. They bowed before their guests, and wordlessly ushered them inside. Rei and Zack came to a circular courtyard in the center of the complex. A hooded man draped in midnight blue was kneeling there in prayer, a long staff mounted with a golden statue of a bird clutched tightly in his hand. He rose slowly to meet them. \u201CWelcome back, warriors of the bear and the lion,\u201D he said warmly. \u201CYou have both grown a great deal from the headstrong cubs you were when last you visited this place. You do your order and your ancestors proud. It\u2026 warms my heart to know that such strength is on the side of righteousness in these dark times.\u201D \u201CIt\u2019s good to see you as well, Prophet Wing,\u201D Rei replied, bowing slightly. She tugged on Zack\u2019s gi, forcing him to follow suit. \u201CStill harassing your brother, bear?\u201D Wing laughed. \u201COnly when he deserves it, of course,\u201D Rei answered. \u201CDebatable,\u201D Zack murmured. \u201CBut I know that you show respect to one another when it really counts,\u201D said Wing. \u201CIn the end, that\u2019s all that really matters.\u201D He gestured to a fountain in the courtyard\u2019s center. \u201CYou\u2019ve both come a long way over harsh terrain. Take your fill, and then walk with me.\u201D After gulping down a few cupped handfuls of crystal-clear water, the ninjas followed behind the prophet as he led them through the age-old corridors of his home. \u201CProphet Wing, we saw things in the terrain on our way here that we are not sure how to explain. There is unusual plant life, taking root in the desert canyon around your temple\u2026 why is this?\u201D \u201CThe desert canyon is but the present of this place,\u201D Wing answered darkly. \u201CTuzosia was not always the barren wasteland that it is now. It was once a land of wealth and fecundity, but always it has been plagued by the threat of the dark one who is chained beneath, that Animator of Chaos. In every age the bright power is disturbed, the war begins anew, and men and women like you and I are forced to take the threat to task. When the dust of conflict clears and the dark one is locked away once more, a part of this land must be locked away as well\u2026 the soldiers and battlegrounds of the past must sink beneath the sands of history. That is what you see emerge now, as we stand upon the brink of war.\u201D \u201CWell, we destroyed the Animadversionite that was stolen,\u201D said Zack. \u201CDid we, er\u2026 is that going to help in the long run?\u201D \u201CThe important thing is that it needed doing,\u201D Wing replied with a smile as he began descending a darkened stairwell. \u201CWhether its helpfulness amounts to anything more than a slight delay has yet to be seen.\u201D Zack scratched his head in confusion. \u201CBut Wing, don\u2019t you know the future already?\u201D he asked. \u201CIn part,\u201D the prophet said. He placed his hand on a great iron handle and pulled open a door to a dimly lit room. \u201CI will show you.\u201D Wing and the ninjas entered an underground chamber lined with towering tablets of stone, illuminated by a series of flickering lanterns which dangled overhead. Images had been rubbed into these panels with charcoal, depicting a series of warlike men, women, and monsters. Even now, a monk was putting the final touches on an image of a man wearing a sombrero at the far end of the room. Rei and Zack were among those depicted. Zack gasped. \u201CLook, Rei, it\u2019s that girl we swiped the Animadversionite from!\u201D he shouted, pointing to a hanging image of Guenhwyvar. \u201CWow,\u201D Rei whispered. \u201CAll of these people are going to become involved in the coming conflict?\u201D \u201CMost already are,\u201D Wing replied. \u201CThey appear to me in visions, and I describe them to our greatest artist so that he can assemble them here. I have strived to create a unified picture of our allies and enemies in this matter.\u201D \u201CThey all seem so different, though\u2026 like this one,\u201D said Zack as he walked further into the chamber. He stopped to point out a picture of a woman draped in black and white. \u201CWhat kind of army gets chicks dressed like this to do their fighting for them?\u201D \u201CNun that I\u2019m aware of,\u201D the prophet chortled. \u201CHer alliance is with no army, lion. She is a daughter of the Christ-God\u2019s Church to the West, who lent their support to crusades against stirrings of the dark one long ago. Their commitment to the war against the evil force at Hiskor remains unforgotten, it seems, though their power has waned\u2026 they send this warrior alone, the woman with the scent of Lemons about her, as their final weapon. We should be thankful, as we will receive little help outside of hers.\u201D \u201CYour predictions seem pretty bleak,\u201D said Rei, who pensively glanced over the rendering of a man with a mechanical arm and face. \u201CHow many of these people are going to fight on our side? Which ones will we fight against?\u201D The prophet sighed and crouched low beside an image of a knife-wielding warrior wrapped in bandages. \u201CThis time is different, bear,\u201D he answered. \u201CThere will be no clash between the armies of the righteous and the sinister in this age. We face an onslaught of small groups and individuals, deadly all, each seeking the Animadversionite for their own reasons. Few know how important it is that the power be destroyed and the dark one\u2019s host be banished once more\u2026 even fewer plan to carry these objectives out.\u201D \u201CAnd the fighting will just kind of break out as all the different paths converge,\u201D Zack hypothesized. \u201CThis is crazy! Our order was founded to stop the spread of another war\u2026 this is more like a race to see who can make it to the Temple of Hiskor without getting killed off by someone else!\u201D \u201CA tournament of champions\u2026 yes, that is what we face now,\u201D Wing answered. \u201CI believe our first match is at hand.\u201D A great din came from above. There was a great rumbling of stones at first, like the sound of a collapsing wall, followed by the screams of scores of monks, scrambling for their life. All four present in the chamber turned their heads in shock \u2013 all except Prophet Wing, who sighed deeply once again. \u201CBattlegrounds of the past are not the only long-gone things which rise from their slumber today. The Dethroned have not forgiven Pikhal for its role in overthrowing their regimes,\u201D he said sadly. \u201CI am not surprised. We must stop them at once!\u201D Rei and Zack turned to each other just long enough to watch the color draining from the other\u2019s face before they rushed up the steps as fast as their feet would take them. They had heard the legend of the Dethroned since they were little more than infants, and knew what level of fear was appropriate in their reaction. Almost every time the Animadversionite was disturbed, its power would ensnare whoever first gripped it so totally that they would be overcome by hubris and ambition. Fashioning themselves warlords, these men would amass an empire of fellow mortals and strike out at the greater world, all the while bowing to the will of the demons who truly supplied their powers. Eventually these madmen were always taken down by the forces of good and dragged behind the dark one\u2019s seals. But each time those seals were breached, they rose again, immortal and unstoppable\u2026 The ninjas peered out from behind the door to the stairwell, looking on as a dark man in an enormous suit of dragoon\u2019s armor gripped a shuddering monk with gloved hands that ended in sharp, metal points. He growled demands in an ancient language at his hapless victim, who merely moaned in fear. Seeing that his orders could not be recognized, he threw the cowering monk to the ground. The dragoon raised a sharp and sturdy spear with one hand above his head, deaf to the pitiful cries beneath him. With a wild cry, Zack flew forth from the threshold, preparing to deliver a devastating flying kick to the merciless dragoon. Unfortunately, his foe was faster than appearances indicated. Catching a glimpse of the ninja flying towards him out of the corner of his eye, the dragoon reached out and grabbed him by the leg. The Dethroned dragoon raised Zack into the air with phenomenal strength, laughing at the ninja thrashing futilely in his grasp. The green-haired warrior swallowed hard as he found the cold steel of a spear brush against his neck\u2026 His foe roared in pain suddenly, and Zack found himself colliding headfirst with the hard, cold floor below. Rei was slicing rapidly at the joints in the dragoon\u2019s armor, causing the warlord to back away, raising his arms to block her offensive. Zack rose to his feet, rubbing his skull. \u201CThis guy\u2019s not so invincible,\u201D Rei breathlessly cried to her partner, \u201Cthere\u2019s weak points in his armor\u2026 and he definitely feels it when I hit them. We just need to\u2026 keep hitting at it, and\u2026\u201D The temple shook as another of the Dethroned, this one protected by a suit of armor typical of English knights, charged through the wall behind Rei at full speed. Crimson tongues of some ethereal flame burst out from his body as he ran, making him appear as a smoldering man-shaped comet. His sword was held high, and he was heading right towards the female ninja. Thinking fast, Zack hurled one of his shurikens at the knight\u2019s head. It embedded itself forcefully into the front of the helmet, sending it flying ninety degrees clockwise from its original position. The mystical flames ceased their dance as the Dethroned stopped in his tracks, struggled to right his helmet\u2019s position, and ultimately threw it to the ground. The man underneath looked young, but his hair was white, and his pupil-less eyes even whiter. Zack ran behind Rei and unsheathed his katana, as the ninjas waited for a joined assault. The knight laughed, clapping his armored hands. \u201CThou art courageous indeed to stand before we mighty lords of the ancient world... I, Sir Red of the Manti, and he, the Wugza Panzer Manathod. But what hope dost thou have of standing betwixt beings of our bewitch\u2019d power and the vengeance we seek \u2018pon this land? Not much, verily!\u201D \u201CI dunno about that,\u201D Zack replied, grinning waggishly underneath his mask and raising two fingers on each hand. \u201CTwo versus two looks like pretty good odds from where I\u2019m standing!\u201D \u201CNon is verus est,\u201D cried a voice from above. The ninjas hadn\u2019t noticed, but the blood of slaughtered monks was dripping from a balcony above their heads. A savage, barbarous-looking man dressed in the fashion of a Gladiator was standing there, drenched in the juices of his quarry. His face was masked in the shadow of his centurion\u2019s helmet, but a fiendish grin could be seen shining from within. A field of violet energy enveloped the gladiator \u2013 like Sir Red, this member of the Dethroned was tapping into the powers he had inherited from the Animadversionite and his dark master. From the field he created a translucent but apparently quite solid throwing axe, composed of the purple ether. Like a bullet it went after the ninjas, picking up speed as it went. Just as swift was Prophet Wing, who whistled through the air with arms spread to meet the projectile, which he intercepted and destroyed with the golden statue atop his wand. He drifted back to the earth to stand among the duo of ninjas while the Dethroned he had foiled hurled insults in Latin at the oracle. \u201CI guess it\u2019s true what they say,\u201D Wing said. \u201CA bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.\u201D Zack raised an eyebrow. \u201CThat expression isn\u2019t appropriate here,\u201D he replied. \u201CAt all.\u201D \u201CYou\u2019d prefer it if I were to stick to bad puns?\u201D the prophet laughed, raising his staff as the gladiator leapt to the ground and joined his fellow Dethroned in a circle around the allies. \u201CMan, you guys are terrible at mid-battle banter,\u201D Rei groaned. \u201CNow come on! Let\u2019s show these sissy immortals what the combined forces of the Pikhal Temple and the Kocak Order can do!\u201D"@en . . . . . "Desert"@en .

The Solving of Dilemmas - Chapter 6 Translated by T. W. Rhys Davids 1. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, this too has been said by the Blessed One: \"I have no teacher, and the man Equal to me does not exist. No rival to me can be found In the whole world of gods and men .\" 'But on the other hand he said: \"Thus then, O brethren, \u00C2l\u00E2ra K\u00E2l\u00E2ma, when he was my teacher and I was his pupil, placed me on an equality with himself, and honoured me with exceeding great honour .\" 'Now if the former of these statements be right, then the second must be wrong. But if the second be right, then the first must be wrong. This too is a double-edged problem, now put to you, which you have to solve.' 2. 'Both the quotations you have made, O king, are accurate. But when he spoke of \u00C2l\u00E2ra K\u00E2l\u00E2ma as his teacher, that was a statement made with reference to the fact of his having been his teacher while he (Gotama) was still a Bodisat and before he had attained to insight and to Buddhahood; and there were five such teachers, O king, under whose tuition the Bodisat spent his time in various places--his teachers when he was still a Bodisat, before he had attained to insight and to Buddhahood. And who were these five? 3. 'Those eight Brahmans who, just after the birth of the Bodisat, took note of the marks on his body-- R\u00E2ma, and Dhaga, and Lakkhana, and Mant\u00EE , and Ya\u00F1\u00F1a , and Suy\u00E2ma, and Subhoga , and Sudatta --they who then made known his future glory, and marked him out as one to be carefully guarded-these were first his teachers . 'And again, O king, the Brahman Sabbamitta of distinguished descent, who was of high lineage in the land of Udikka , a philologist and grammarian, well read in the six Vedangas , whom Suddhodana the king, the Bodisat's father, sent for, and having poured out the water of dedication from a golden vase, handed over the boy to his charge, to be taught--this was his second teacher . 'And again, O king, the god who raised the agitation in the Bodisat's heart, at the sound of whose speech the Bodisat, moved and anxious, that very moment went out from the world in his Great Renunciation--this was his third teacher . 'And again, O king, \u00C2l\u00E2ra K\u00E2l\u00E2ma--he was his fourth teacher. 'And again, O king, Uddaka the son of R\u00E2ma--he was his fifth teacher. 'These, O king, are the five who were his teachers when he was still a Bodisat, before he had attained to insight and to Buddhahood. But they were teachers in worldly wisdom. And in this Doctrine that is transcendental, in the penetrating into the wisdom of the omniscient ones--in that there is no one who is above the Tath\u00E2gata to teach him. Self-dependent for his knowledge is the Tath\u00E2gata, without a master, and that is why it was said by the Tath\u00E2gata: \"I have no teacher, and the man Equal to me does not exist. No rival to me can be found In the whole world of gods and men.\"' 'Very good, N\u00E2gasena! That is so, and I accept it as you say.' [Here ends the dilemma as to the Buddha's teachers.] [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-SECOND. WHY MUST THERE BE ONLY ONE BUDDHA AT A TIME?] 4. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, this too was said by the Blessed One: \"This is an impossibility, an occurrence for which there can be no cause, that in one world two Arahat Buddhas supreme should arise at one and the same time--such a thing can in no wise be .\" 'But, N\u00E2gasena, when they are preaching, all the Tath\u00E2gatas preach (the Doctrine as to) the thirty-seven constituent elements of insight ; when they are talking, it is of the Four Noble Truths that they talk; when they are instructing, it is in the three Trainings that they instruct; when they are teaching, it is the practice of zeal that they teach. If, N\u00E2gasena, the preaching of all the Tath\u00E2gatas is one, and their talk of the same thing, and their training the same, and their teaching one, why then should not two Tath\u00E2gatas arise at the same time? Already by the appearance of one Buddha has this world become flooded with light. If there should be a second Buddha the world would be still more illuminated by the glory of them both. When they were exhorting two Tath\u00E2gatas would exhort at ease; when they were instructing two Tath\u00E2gatas would instruct at ease. Tell me the reason of this, that I may put away my doubt.' 5. 'This world system, O king, is a one-Buddha-supporting world; that is, it can bear the virtue of only a single Tath\u00E2gata. If a second Tath\u00E2gata were to arise the world could not bear him, it would shake and tremble, it would bend, this way and that, it would disperse, scatter into pieces, dissolve, be utterly destroyed. just as a boat, O king, might be able to carry one passenger across. Then, when one man had got on board, it would be well trimmed and able to bear his weight . But if a second man were to come like to the first in age and caste and strength and size and stoutness of body and build of frame, and he too should get on board the boat--would that boat be able, O king, to carry them both? 'Certainly not, Sir! it would shake and tremble; it would bend, this way and that; it would break into pieces, be shattered, dissolved, and utterly destroyed; it would sink into the waves.' 'Just so, O king, with this world, if a second Tath\u00E2gata were to appear. Or suppose, O king, that a man had eaten as much food as he wanted, even so that he had filled himself with nourishment up to the throat, and he--thus satiated , regaled, filled with good cheer, with no room left for more, drowsy and stiff as a stick one cannot bend--were again to eat as much food as he had eaten before--would such a man, O king, then be at ease?' 'Certainly not, Sir! If he were to eat again, but once more, he would die.' 'Well, no more could this world bear a second Tath\u00E2gata, than that man could bear a second meal.' 6. 'But how is that, N\u00E2gasena? Would the earth tremble at a too great weight of goodness?' 'Suppose, O king, there were two carts quite filled with precious things up to the top , and people were to take the things from the one cart and pile them up on the other, would that one be able to carry the weight of both?' 'Certainly not, Sir! The nave of its wheels would split, and the spokes would break, and the circumference would fall to pieces, and the axle-tree would break in twain .' 'But how is that, O king? Would the cart come to pieces owing to the too great weight of goods?' 'Yes, it would.' 7. 'Well, just so, O king, would the earth tremble owing to the too great weight of goodness. But that argument has been adduced to make the power of the Buddhas known . Hear another fitting reason why two Buddhas could not appear at the same time. If, O king, two Buddhas were to arise together, then would disputes arise between their followers, and at the words: \"Your Buddha, our Buddha,\" they would divide off into two parties--just as would the followers of two rival powerful ministers of state. This is the other reason, O king, why two Buddhas could not appear at the same time. 8. 'Hear a further reason, O king, why two Buddhas could not appear at the same time. If that were so, then the passage (of Scripture) that the Buddha is the chief would become false, and the passage that the Buddha takes precedence of all would become false, and the passage that the Buddha is the best of all would become false. And so all those passages where the Buddha is said to be the most excellent, the most exalted, the highest of all, the peerless one, without an equal, the matchless one, who hath neither counterpart nor rival--all would be proved false. Accept this reason too as in truth a reason why two Buddhas cannot arise at once. 9. 'But besides that, O king, this is a natural characteristic of the Buddhas, the Blessed Ones, that one Buddha only should arise in the world. And why? By reason of the greatness of the virtue of the all-knowing Buddhas. Of other things also, whatever is mighty in the world is singular. The broad earth is great, O king, and it is only one. The ocean is mighty, and it is only one. Sineru, the king of the mountains, is great; and it is only one. Space is mighty, and it is only one. Sakka (the king of the gods) is great, and he is only one. Mara (the Evil One, Death) is great, and he is only one. Mah\u00E2-Brahm\u00E2 is mighty, and he is only one. [paragraph continues] A Tath\u00E2gata, an Arahat Buddha supreme, is great, and he is alone in the world. Wherever any one of these spring up, then there is no room for a second. And therefore, O king, is it that only one Tath\u00E2gata, an Arahat Buddha supreme, can appear at one time in the world.' 'Well has the puzzle, N\u00E2gasena, been discussed by simile adduced and reason given. Even an unintelligent man on hearing this would be satisfied; how much rather one great in wisdom as myself. Very good, N\u00E2gasena! That is so, and I accept it as you say. [Here ends the dilemma as to why there should be only one Buddha at a time in the world.] [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-THIRD. WHY SHOULD GIFTS BE GIVEN TO THE ORDER RATHER THAN TO THE BUDDHA?] 10. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, the Blessed One said to his mother's sister , Mah\u00E2-Pag\u00E2pat\u00EE the Gotam\u00EE, when she was about to give him a cloth wrapper for use in the rainy season : \"Give it, O Gotam\u00E2, to the Order. If the Order is presented by you with it, then will you have paid homage: thereby alike to the Order and to me .\" 'But what, N\u00E2gasena? Is not the Tath\u00E2gata of greater weight and importance, and more worthy of gifts than even the jewel treasure of the Order, that the Tath\u00E2gata should have told his aunt, when about to present him with a wrapper for the rainy season which she herself had carded and pressed and beaten and cut and woven , to give it to the Order! If, N\u00E2gasena, the Tath\u00E2gata were really higher and greater and more excellent than the Order, then he would have known that a gift given to him would be most meritorious, and therefore would not have told her to give it to the Order. But inasmuch as the Tath\u00E2gata, N\u00E2gasena, puts himself not in the way of gifts to himself, gives no occasion for such gifts, you see that he then told his aunt to give that wrapper rather to the Order.' 11. 'The quotation you make, O king, is correct, and the Blessed One did so direct his aunt's gifts . But that was not because an act of reverence paid to himself would bear no fruit, or because he was unworthy to receive gifts, but it was out of kindness and mercy that he, thinking: \"Thus will the Order in times to come, when I am gone, be highly thought of;\" magnified the excellence which the Order really had, in that he said: \"Give it, O Gotam\u00EE, to the Order. If you present the Order with it, thus will you have paid homage alike to the Order and to me.\" Just as a father, O king, while he is yet alive, exalts in the midst of the assembly of ministers, soldiers, and royal messengers, of sentries, body guards, and courtiers --yea, in the presence of the king himself--the virtues which his son really possesses, thinking: \"If established here he will be honoured of the people in times to come;\" so was it out of mercy and kindness that the Tath\u00E2gata, thinking: \"Thus will the Order, in times to come, when I am gone, be highly thought of;\" magnified the excellence which the Order really had, in that he said: \"Give it, O Gotam\u00EE, to the Order. If you present the Order with it, thus will you have paid homage alike to the Order and to me.\" 12. 'And by the mere gift of a wrapper for the rainy season, the Order, O king, did not become greater than, or superior to, the Tath\u00E2gata. just, O king, as when parents anoint their children with perfumes, rub them, bathe them, or shampoo them , does the son by that mere service of theirs become greater than, or superior to, his parents?' 'Certainly not, sir! Parents deal with their children as they will, whether the children like it or not . And therefore do they anoint them with perfumes, shampoo, or bathe them.' 'And just so, O king, the Order did not become greater than, or superior to, the Tath\u00E2gata merely by the fact of that gift; and although the Tath\u00E2gata, whether the Order liked it or not, told his aunt to give the wrapper to the Order. 13. 'Or suppose, O king, some man should bring a complimentary present to a king, and the king should present that gift to some one else--to a soldier or a messenger, to a general or a chaplain,--would that man become greater than, or superior to, the king, merely by the fact that it was he who got the present ?' 'Certainly not, Sir! That man receives his wage from the king, from the king he gains his livelihood; it was the king who, having placed him in that office, gave him the present.' 'And just so, O king, the Order did not become greater than, or superior to, the Tath\u00E2gata merely by the fact of that gift. The Order is, as it were, the hired servant of the Tath\u00E2gata, and gains its livelihood through the Tath\u00E2gata. And it was the Tath\u00E2gata who, having placed it in that position, caused the gift to be given it. 14. 'And further the Tath\u00E2gata, O king, thought thus: \"The Order is by its very nature worthy of gifts. I will therefore have this thing, my property though it be, presented to it,\" and so he had the wrapper given to the Order. For the Tath\u00E2gata, O king, magnifies not the offering of gifts to himself, but rather to whomsoever in the world is worthy of having gifts presented to him. For this was said, O king, by the Blessed One, the god over all gods, in the most excellent Magghima Nik\u00E2ya, [242] in the religious discourse entitled Dhamma-d\u00E2y\u00E2da, when he was exalting the attainment of being content with little: \"He would become the first of my Bhikkhus, the most worthy of presents and of praise .\" 15. 'And there is not, O king, in the three worlds any being whatever more worthy of gifts, greater or more exalted or better, than the Tath\u00E2gata. It is the Tath\u00E2gata who was greatest and highest and best. As it was said, O king, by M\u00E2nava-g\u00E2mika the god, in the most excellent Samyutta Nik\u00E2ya, as he stood before the Blessed One in the midst of the assembly of gods and men: Of all the R\u00E2gagaha hills Mount Vipula's acknowledged chief, Of the Himalayas Mount White, of planetary orbs the sun, The ocean of all waters, of constellations bright the moon -- In all the world of gods and men the Buddha's the acknowledged Lord !\" And those verses of M\u00E2nava the god, O king, were well sung, not wrongly sung, well spoken, not wrongly spoken, and approved by the Blessed One . And was it not said by S\u00E2riputta, the Commander of the faith: \"There is but one Confession, one true Faith, One Adoration of clasped hands stretched forth --That paid to Him who routs the Evil One, And helps us cross the ocean of our ills !\" 'And it was said by the Blessed One himself, the god over all gods: \"There is one being, O brethren, who is born into the world for the good and for the weal of the great multitudes, out of mercy to the world, for the advantage and the good and the weal of gods and men. And what is that being? A Tath\u00E2gata, an Arahat Buddha supreme .\"' 'Very good, N\u00E2gasena! That is so, and I accept it as you say.' [Here ends the dilemma as to the precedence of the Order over the Buddha.] ____________________________ [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-FOURTH. IS IT MORE ADVANTAGEOUS TO BE A LAYMAN, OR TO ENTER THE ORDER?] 16. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, it was said by the Blessed One: \"I would magnify, O brethren, the Supreme Attainment either in a layman or in a recluse. Whether he be a layman., O brethren, or a recluse, the man who has reached the Supreme Attainment shall overcome all the difficulties inherent therein, shall win his way even to the excellent condition of Arahatship .\" 'Now, N\u00E2gasena, if a layman, clad in white robes, enjoying the pleasures of sense, dwelling in a habitation encumbered with wife and children , making constant use of the sandal wood of Benares , of garlands and perfumes and unguents, accepting gold and silver, wearing a turban inlaid with jewels and gold, can, having reached the Supreme Attainment, win his way to the excellent condition of Arahatship--and if a recluse, with his shaven head and yellow robes, dependent for his livelihood on the alms of other men, perfectly fulfilling the fourfold code of morality , taking upon himself and carrying out the hundred and fifty precepts , conducting himself according to the thirteen extra vows without omitting any one of them, can also, having reached the Supreme Attainment, win his way to the excellent condition of Arahatship--then, Sir, what is the distinction between the layman and the recluse? Your austerity is without effect, your renunciation is useless, your observance of the precepts is barren, your taking of the extra vows is vain. What is the good of your therein heaping up woes to yourselves, if thus in comfort the condition of bliss can be reached?' 17. 'The words you ascribe to the Blessed One, O king, are rightly quoted. And that is even so. It is the man who has reached to the Supreme Attainment who bears the palm. If the recluse, O king, because he knows that he is a recluse, should neglect the Attainments, then is he far from the fruits of renunciation, far from Arahatship--how much more if a layman, still wearing the habit of the world, should do so! But whether he be a layman, O king, or a recluse, he who attains to the supreme insight, to the supreme conduct of life, he too will win his way to the excellent condition of Arahatship. 18. 'But nevertheless, O king, it is the recluse who is the lord and master of the fruit of renunciation. And renunciation of the world, O king, is full of gain, many and immeasurable are its advantages, its profit can no man calculate. just, O king, as no man can put a measure, in wealth, on the value of a wish-conferring gem, Saying: \"Such and such is the price of the gem\"--just so, O king, is the renunciation of the world full of gain, many and immeasurable are its advantages, its profit can no man calculate--no more, O king, than he could count the number of the waves in the great ocean, and say: \"So and so many are the waves in the sea!\" 19. 'Whatsoever the recluse, O king, may have yet to do, all that doth he accomplish straightway, without delay. And why is that? The recluse, O king, is content with little, joyful in heart, detached from the world, apart from society, earnest in zeal, without a home, without a dwelling-place, righteous in conduct, in action without guile, skilled in duty and in the attainments--that is why whatsoever may lie before him yet to do, that can he accomplish straightway, without delay--just as, the flight of your javelin , O king, is rapid because it is of pure metal, smooth, and burnished, and straight, and without a stain.' 'Very good, N\u00E2gasena! That is so, and I accept it as you say.' [Here ends the dilemma as to the recluse having no advantages over the layman.] [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-FIFTH. ASCETICISM.] 20. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, when the Bodisat was practising austerity , then there was found no other exertion the like of his, no such power, no such battling against evil, no such putting to rout of the armies of the Evil One, no such abstinence in food, no such austerity of life. But finding no satisfaction in strife like that, he abandoned that idea, saying: \"Not even by this cruel asceticism am I reaching the peculiar faculty, beyond the power of man, arising from insight into the knowledge of that which is fit and noble . May there not be now some other way to wisdom ?\" 'But then, when weary of that path he had by another way attained to omniscience, he, on the other hand, thus again exhorted and instructed his disciple in that path (he had left, saying): [245] \"Exert yourselves, be strong, and to the faith The Buddhas taught devote yourselves with zeal. As a strong elephant a house of reeds, Shake down the armies of the Evil One . 'Now what, N\u00E2gasena, is the reason that the Tath\u00E2gata exhorted and led his disciples to that path which he had himself abandoned, which he loathed?' 21. 'Both then also, O king, and now too, that is still the only path. And it is along that path that the Bodisat attained to Buddhahood. Although the Bodisat, O king, exerting himself strenuously, reduced the food he took till he had decreased it to nothing at all , and by that disuse of food he became weak in mind, yet when he returned little by little to the use of solid food, it was by that path that before long he attained to Buddhahood. And that only has been the path along which all the Tath\u00E2gatas reached to the attainment of the insight of omniscience. Just as food is the support of all beings, as it is in dependence on food that all beings live at ease, just so is that the path of all the Tath\u00E2gatas to the attainment of the insight of omniscience. The fault was not, O king, in the exertion, was not in the power, not in the battle waged against evil, that the Tath\u00E2gata did not then, at once, attain to Buddhahood. But the fault was in the disuse of food, and the path itself (of austerity) was always ready for use. 22. 'Suppose, O king, that a man should follow a path in great haste, and by that haste his sides should give way , or he should fall a cripple on the ground, unable to move, would there then be any fault, O king, in the broad earth that that man's sides had given way?' 'Certainly not, Sir! The great earth is always ready. How should it be in fault? The fault was in the man's own zeal which made him fail.' 'And just even so, O king, the fault was not in the exertion, not in the power, not in the battle waged against evil, that the Tath\u00E2gata did not then, at once, attain to Buddhahood. But the fault was in the disuse of food, and the path itself was always ready-- just as if a man should wear a robe, and never have it washed, the fault would not be in the water, which would always be ready for use, but in the man himself. That is why the Tath\u00E2gata exhorted and led his disciples along that very path. For that path, O king, is always ready, always right.' 'Very good, N\u00E2gasena! That is so, and I accept it as you say.' [Here ends the dilemma as to the path.] [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-SIXTH. THE BACKSLIDERS.] 23. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, this doctrine of the Tath\u00E2gatas is mighty, essentially true, precious, excellent, noble, peerless, pure and stainless, clear and faultless. It is not right to admit a layman who is merely a disciple into the Order. He should be instructed as a layman still, till he have attained to the Fruit of the First Path , and then be admitted. And why is this? When these men, still being evil, have been admitted into a religion so pure, they give it up, and return again to the lower state , and by their backsliding the people is led to think: \"Vain must be this religion of the Samana Gotama, which these men have given up.\" This is the reason for what I say.' 24. 'Suppose, O king, there were a bathing tank , full of pure clear cold water. And some man, dirty, covered with stains and mud, should come there, and without bathing in it should turn back again, still dirty as before. Now in that matter whom would the people blame, the dirty man, or the bathing tank?' 'The dirty man, Sir, would the people blame, saying: \"This fellow came to the bathing tank, and has gone back as dirty as before. How could the bathing tank, of itself, cleanse a man who did not care to bathe? What fault is there in the tank?\"' 'Just so, O king, has the Tath\u00E2gata constructed a bathing tank full of the excellent waters of emancipation ,--the bath of the good law. Whosoever of conscious discerning beings are polluted with the stains of sin, they, bathing in it, can wash away all their sins. And if any one, having gone to that bathing tank of the good law, should not bathe in it, but turn back polluted as before, and return again to the lower state, it is him the people would blame, and say: \"This man entered religion according to the doctrine of the Conquerors, and finding no resting-place within it, has returned again to the lower state. How could the religion of the Conquerors, of itself, cleanse him who would not regulate his life in accordance with it? What fault is there in the system?\" 25. 'Or suppose, O king, that a man afflicted with dire disease should visit a physician skilled in diagnosis , knowing an efficacious and lasting method of cure, and that that man should then not let himself be treated, but go back again as ill as before. Now therein whom would the people blame, the sick man or the doctor?' It is the sick man, Sir, they would blame, saying: [paragraph continues] \"How could the physician, of himself, cure this man, who would not let himself be treated? What fault is there in the doctor?\"' 'Just so, O king, has the Tath\u00E2gata deposited in the casket of his religion the ambrosial medicine (of Nirv\u00E2na) which is able to entirely suppress all the sickness of sin, thinking: \"May all those of conscious sentient beings who are afflicted with the sickness of sin drink of this ambrosia, and so allay all their disease.\" And if any one, without drinking the ambrosia, should turn back again with the evil still within him, and return once more to the lower state, it is he whom the people will blame, saying: \"This man entered religion according to the doctrine of the Conquerors, and finding no resting-place within it, has returned again to the lower state. How could the religion of the Conquerors, of itself, cure him who would not regulate his life in accordance with it? What fault is there in the system?\" 26. 'Or suppose, O king, a starving man were to attend at a place where a mighty largesse of food given for charity was being distributed, and then should go away again, still starving, without eating anything. Whom then would the people blame, the starving man, or the feast of piety?' 'It is the starving man, Sir, they would blame, saying: \"This fellow, though tormented with hunger, still when the feast of piety was provided for him, partook of nothing, and went back as hungry as before. How could the meal, of which he would not eat, enter, of itself, into his mouth? What fault is there in the food? \"' 'Just so, O king, has the Tath\u00E2gata placed the most excellent, good, auspicious, delicate ambrosial food, surpassing sweet, of the realisation of the impermanency of all things , into the casket of his religion, thinking: \"May all those of conscious sentient beings who feel within them the torment of sin , whose hearts are deadened by cravings, feeding upon this food, allay every longing that they have for future life in any form, in any world.\" And if any one, without enjoying this food, should turn back, still dominated by his cravings, and return once more to the lower state, it is he whom the people will blame, saying: \"This man entered religion according to the doctrine of the Conquerors, and finding no resting-place within it, has returned again to the lower state. How could the religion of the Conquerors, of itself, purify him who would not regulate his life in accordance with it? What fault is there in the system?\"' 27. 'If the Tath\u00E2gata, O king, had let a householder be received into the Order only after he had been trained in the first stage of the Excellent Way, then would renunciation of the world no longer indeed be said to avail for the putting away of evil qualities, for purification of heart--then would there be no longer any use in renunciation. It would be as if a man were to have a bathing tank excavated by the labour of hundreds (of workpeople ), and were then to have a public announcement made: \"Let no one who is dirty go down into this tank! Let only those whose dust and dirt have been washed away, who are purified and stainless, go down into this tank!\" Now would that bath, O king, be of any use to those thus purified and stainless? 'Certainly not, Sir! The advantage they would have sought in going into the bath they would have already gained elsewhere. Of what use would the bath be to them then?' 'Just so, O king, had the Tath\u00E2gata ordained that only laymen who had already entered the first stage of the Excellent Way should be received into the Order, then would the advantage they seek in it have been already gained. Of what use would the renunciation be to them then? 28. 'Or suppose, O king, that a physician, a true follower of the sages of old , one who carries (in his memory) the ancient traditions and verses , a practical man , skilled in diagnosis, and master of an efficacious and lasting system of treatment, who had collected (from medicinal herbs) a medicine able to cure every disease, were to have it announced: \"Let none, Sirs, who are ill come to visit me! Let the healthy and the strong visit me!\" Now, would then, O king, those men free from illness and disease, healthy and jubilant, get what they wanted from that physician?' 'Certainly not, Sir! What men want from a physician, that would they have already obtained otherwise. What use would the physician be to them?' 'Just so, O king, had the Tath\u00E2gata ordained that only those laymen who had already entered the first stage of the Excellent Way should be received into the Order, then would the advantages they seek in it have been already gained elsewhere. Of what use would the renunciation be to them then? 29. 'Or suppose, O king, that some had had many hundreds of dishes of boiled milk-rice prepared , and were to have it announced to those about him: 'Let not, Sirs, any hungry man approach to this feast of charity. Let those who have well fed, the satisfied, refreshed, and satiated , those who have regaled themselves, and are filled with good cheer,--let them come to the feast.\" Now would any advantage, O king, be derived from the feast by those men thus well fed, satisfied, refreshed, satiated, regaled, and filled with good cheer?' 'Certainly not, Sir! The very advantage they would seek in going to the feast, that would they have already attained elsewhere. What good would the feast be to them?' 'Just so, O king, had the Tath\u00E2gata, ordained that only those laymen who had already entered the first stage of the Excellent Way should be received into the Order, thus would the advantages they seek in it have been already gained elsewhere. Of what use would the renunciation be to them? 30. 'But notwithstanding that, O king, they who return to the lower state manifest thereby five immeasurably good qualities in the religion of the Conquerors. And what are the five? They show how glorious is the state (which those have reached who have entered the Order), how purified it is from every stain, how impossible it is for the sinful to dwell within it together (with the good), how difficult it is to realise (its glory), how many are the restraints to be observed within it. 31. 'And how do they show the mighty glory of that state? just, O king, as if a man, poor, and of low birth, without distinction , deficient in wisdom, were to come into possession of a great and mighty kingdom, it would not be long before he would be overthrown, utterly destroyed , and deprived of his glory. For he would be unable to support his dignity. And why so? Because of the greatness thereof. just so is it, O king, that whosoever are without distinction, have acquired no merit, and are devoid of wisdom, when they renounce the world according to the religion of the Conquerors, then, unable to bear that most excellent renunciation, overthrown, fallen, and deprived of their glory, they return to the lower state. For they are unable to carry out the doctrine of the Conquerors. And why so? Because of the exalted nature of the condition which that doctrine brings about. Thus is it, O king, that they show forth the mighty glory of that state. 32. 'And how do they show how purified that state is from every stain? just, O king, as water, when it has fallen upon a lotus, flows away, disperses, scatters, disappears, adheres not to it. And why so? Because of the lotus being pure from any spot. Just so, O king, when whosoever are deceitful, tricky, crafty, treacherous, holders of lawless opinions, have been admitted into the religion of the Conquerors, it is not long before they disperse, and scatter, and fall from that pure and stainless, clear and faultless , most high and excellent religion, and finding no standing-place in it, adhering no longer to it, they return to the lower state. And why so? Because the religion of the Conquerors has been purified from every stain. Thus is it, O king, that they show forth the purity of that state from every stain. 33. 'And how do they show how impossible it is for the sinful to dwell within it together with the good? just, O king, as the great ocean does not tolerate the continuance in it of a dead corpse , but whatever corpse may be in the sea, that does it bring quickly to the shore, and cast it out on to the dry land. And why so? Because the ocean is the abode of mighty creatures. Just so, O king, when whosoever are sinful, foolish, with their zeal evaporated, distressed, impure, and bad, have been admitted into the religion of the Conquerors, it is not long before they abandon that religion, and dwelling no longer in it--the abode of the mighty, the Arahats, purified, and free from the Great Evils --they return to the lower state. And why so? Because it is impossible for the wicked to dwell in the religion of the Conquerors. Thus is it, O king, that they show forth the impossibility of the sinful to abide within it together with the good. 34. 'And how do they show how difficult a state it is to grasp? just, O king, as archers who are clumsy, untrained, ignorant, and bereft of skill, are incapable of high feats of archery, such as hairsplitting , but miss the object, and shoot beyond the mark. And why so? Because of the fineness and minuteness of the horse-hair. just so, O king, when foolish, stupid, imbecile , dull, slow-minded fellows renounce the world according to the doctrine of the Conquerors, then they, unable to grasp the exquisitely fine and subtle distinctions of the Four Truths, missing them, going beyond them, turn back before long to the lower state. And why so? Because it is so difficult to penetrate into the finenesses and subtleties of the Truths. This is how they show forth the difficulty of its realisation. 35. 'And how do they show how many are the restraints to be observed within it? just, O king, as a man who had gone to a place where a mighty battle was going on, when, surrounded on all sides by the forces of the enemy, he sees the armed hosts crowding in upon him, will give way, turn back, and take to flight. And why so? Out of fear lest he should not be saved in the midst of so hot a fight. Just so, O king, when whosoever are wicked , unrestrained, shameless, foolish, full of ill-will, fickle, unsteady, mean and stupid, renounce the world under the system of the Conquerors, then they, unable to carry out the manifold precepts, give way, turn back, and take to flight, and so before long return to the lower state. And why so? Because of the multiform nature of the restraints to be observed in the religion of the Conquerors. Thus is it, O king, that they show forth the manifoldness of the restraints to be observed. 36. 'As on that best of flowering shrubs, O king, the double jasmine , there may be flowers that have been pierced by insects, and their tender stalks being cut to pieces, they may occasionally fall down. But by their having fallen is not the jasmine bush disgraced. For the flowers that still remain upon it pervade every direction with their exquisite perfume. Just so, O king, whosoever having renounced the world under the system of the Conquerors, return again to the lower state, are, like jasmine flowers bitten by the insects and deprived of their colour and their smell, colourless as it were in their behaviour, and incapable of development. But by their backsliding is not the religion of the Conquerors put to shame. For the members of the Order who remain in the religion pervade the world of gods and men with the exquisite perfume of their right conduct. 37. 'Among rice plants that are healthy and ruddy there may spring up a kind of rice plant called Karumbhaka , and that may occasionally fade. But by its fading are not the red rice plants disgraced. For those that remain become the food of kings. Just so, O king, whosoever having renounced the world under the system of the Conquerors return again to the lower state, they, like Karumbhaka plants among the red rice, may grow not, nor attain development, and may even occasionally relapse into the lower state. But by their backsliding is not the religion of the Conquerors put to shame, for the brethren that remain stedfast become fitted even for Arahatship. 38. 'On one side, O king, of a wish conferring gem a roughness may arise. But by the appearance of that roughness is not the gem disgraced. For the purity that remains in the gem fills the people with gladness. And just so, O king, whosoever having renounced the world under the system of the Conquerors return again to the lower state, they may be rough ones and fallen ones in the religion. But by their backsliding is not the religion of the Conquerors put to shame, for the brethren who remain stedfast are the cause of joy springing up in the hearts of gods and men. 39. 'Even red sandal wood of the purest sort, O king, may become in some portion of it rotten and scentless. But thereby is not the sandal wood disgraced. For that portion which remains wholesome and sweet scatters and diffuses its perfume all around. And just so, O king, whosoever having renounced the world under the system of the Conquerors return again to the lower state, they, like the rotten part of the sandal wood, may be as it were thrown away in the religion. But by their backsliding is not the religion of the Conquerors put to shame. For the brethren who remain stedfast pervade, with the sandal wood perfume of their right conduct, the world of gods and men.' 'Very good, N\u00E2gasena! By one appropriate simile after another, by one correct analogy after another have you most excellently made clear the faultlessness of the system of the Conquerors, and shown it free from blame. And even those who have lapsed make evident how excellent that system is.' (Here ends the dilemma as to those who have lapsed.] [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-SEVENTH. WHY HAVE ARAHATS NO POWER OVER THEIR BODIES?] 40. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, your (members of the Order) say: \"There is one kind of pain only which an Arahat suffers, bodily pain, that is, and not mental .\" 'How is this, N\u00E2gasena? The Arahat keeps his mind going by means of the body. Has the Arahat no lordship, no mastery, no power over the body?' 'No, he has not, O king.' 'That, Sir, is not right that over the body, by which he keeps his mind going, he should have neither lordship, nor mastery, nor power. Even a bird, Sir, is lord and master and ruler over the nest in which he dwells.' 41. 'There are these ten qualities, O king, inherent in the body, which run after it, as it were, and accompany it from existence to existence . And what are the ten? Cold and heat, hunger and thirst, the necessity of voiding excreta, fatigue and sleepiness, old age, disease, and death. And in respect thereof, the Arahat is without lordship, without mastery, without power.' 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, what is the reason why the commands of the Arahat have no power over his body, neither has he any mastery over it? Tell me that. 'Just, O king, as whatever beings are dependent on the land, they all walk, and dwell, and carry on their business in dependence upon it. But do their commands have force, does their mastery extend over it?' 'Certainly not, Sir!' 'Just so, O king, the Arahat keeps his mind going through the body. And yet his commands have no authority over it, nor power.' 42. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, why is it that the ordinary man suffers both bodily and mental pain?' 'By reason, O king, of the untrained state of his mind. just, O king, as an ox when trembling with starvation might be tied up with a weak and fragile and tiny rope of grass or creeper. But if the ox were excited then would he escape, dragging the fastening with him. Just so, O king, when pain comes upon him whose mind is untrained, then is his mind excited, and the mind so excited bends his body this way and that and makes it grovel on the ground, and he, being thus untrained in mind, trembles and cries, and gives forth terrible groans. This is why the ordinary man, O king, suffers pain as well in body as in mind.' 43. 'Then why, Sir, does the Arahat only suffer one kind of pain--bodily, that is, and not mental?' 'The mind of the Arahat, O king, is trained, well practised, tamed, brought into subjection, and obedient, and it hearkens to his word. When affected with feelings of pain, he grasps firmly the idea of the impermanence of all things, so ties his mind as it were to the post of contemplation, and his mind, bound to the post of contemplation, remains unmoved, unshaken, becomes stedfast, wanders not--though his body the while may bend this way and that and roll in agony by the disturbing influence of the pain. This is why it is only one kind of pain that the Arahat suffers--bodily pain, that is, and not mental.' 44., Venerable N\u00E2gasena, that verily is a most marvellous thing that when the body is trembling the mind should not be shaken. Give me a reason for that.' 'Suppose, O king, there were a noble tree, mighty in trunk and branches and leaves. And when agitated by the force of the wind its branches should wave. Would the trunk also move 'Certainly not, Sir!' 'Well, O king, the mind of the Arahat is as the trunk of that noble tree.' ' Most wonderful, N\u00E2gasena, and most strange! [paragraph continues] Never before have I seen a lamp of the law that burned thus brightly through all time.' [Here ends the dilemma as to the Arahat's power over his body.] [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-EIGHTH. THE LAYMAN'S SIN.] 45. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, suppose a layman had been guilty of a P\u00E2r\u00E2gika offence , and some time after should enter the Order. And neither he himself should be aware that when still a layman he had so been guilty, nor should any one else inform him, saying: \"When a layman you were guilty of such an offence.\" Now if he were to devote himself to the attainment of Arahatship , would he be able so to comprehend the Truth as to succeed in entering upon the Excellent Way?' 'No, O king, he would not.' 'But why not, Sir?' 'That, in him, which might have been the cause of his grasping the Truth has been, in him, destroyed. No comprehension can therefore take place.' 46. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, your people say: \"To him who is aware (of an offence) there comes remorse. When remorse has arisen there is an obstruction in the heart. To him whose heart is obstructed there is no comprehension of the Truth .\" 'Why should there then be no such comprehension to one not aware of his offence, feeling no remorse, remaining with a quiet heart. This dilemma touches on two irreconcilable statements. Think well before you solve it.' 47. 'Would selected seed , O king, successfully sown in a well-ploughed, well-watered, fertile soil, come to maturity?' 'Certainly, Sir!' 'But would the same seed grow on the surface of a thick slab of rock?' 'Of course not.' 'Why then should the same seed grow in the mud, and not on the rock?' 'Because on the rock the cause for its growth does not exist. Seeds cannot grow without a cause.' 'Just so, O king, the cause by reason of which his comprehension of the Truth (his conversion) might have been brought about, has been rooted out in him. Conversion cannot take place without a cause.' 48. '[Give me, Sir, another simile .'] 'Well, O king, will sticks and clods and cudgels and clubs find a resting-place in the air, in the same way as they do on the ground?' 'No, Sir.' 'But what is the reason why they come to rest on the earth, when they will not stand in the air?' 'There is no cause in the air for their stability, and without a cause they will not stand.' 'Just so, O king, by that fault of his the cause for his conversion has been removed. And without a cause there can be no conversion. Now will fire, O king, burn in water in the same way as it will on land?' 'No, Sir.' 'But why not?' 'Because in water the conditions precedent for burning do not exist. And there can be no burning without them.' 'Just so, O king, are the conditions precedent to conversion destroyed in him by that offence of his. And when the conditions which would bring it about are destroyed there can be no conversion.' 49. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, think over this matter once more. I am not yet convinced about it. Persuade me by some reason how such obstruction can occur in the case of one not aware of his offence, and feeling therefore no remorse.' 'Would the Hal\u00E2hala poison, O king, if eaten by a man who did not know he had eaten it, take away his life?' 'Yes, Sir.' 'Just so, O king, is there an obstruction to his comprehension of the Truth, who, without being aware of it, has committed a sin. And would fire, O king, burn a man who walked into it unawares?' 'Yes, Sir.' 'Well, just so in the case you put. Or would a venomous snake, if it bit a man without his knowing it, kill him?' 'Yes, Sir.' 'Well, just so in the case you put. And is it not true that Samana Kola\u00F1\u00F1a, the king of Kalinga,--when surrounded by the seven treasures of a sovereign overlord he went mounted on his state elephant to pay a visit to his relatives,--was not able to pass the Tree of Wisdom, though he was not aware that it was there ? Well, of the same kind is the reason why one who has committed an offence, even though he know it not, is nevertheless incapable of rising to the knowledge of the Truth.' 'Verily, N\u00E2gasena, this must be the word of the Conqueror. To find any fault with it were vain. And this (explanation of yours) must be the meaning of it. I accept it as you say.' [Here ends the dilemma of the layman's sin.] [DILEMMA THE FIFTY-NINTH. THE GUILTY RECLUSE.] 50. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, what is the distinction, what the difference, between a layman who has done wrong, and a Samana (member of the Order) who has done wrong? Will they both be reborn in like condition? Will the like retribution happen to both? Or is there any difference?' 'There are, O king, ten qualities which abound in the guilty Samana, distinguishing him from the guilty layman. And besides that, in ten ways does the Samana purify the gifts that may be given him. 51. 'And what are the ten qualities which abound in the guilty Samana, distinguishing him from the guilty layman? The guilty Samana, O king, is full of reverence for the Buddha, for the Law, for the Order, and for his fellow-disciples; he exerts himself in putting questions about, and in recitation of (the sacred texts); he is devoted to learning, though he has done wrong. Then, O king, the guilty one entering the assembly, enters it decently clad, he guards himself alike in body and mind through fear of rebuke, his mind is set upon exerting himself (towards the attainment of Arahatship), he is of the companionship of the brethren. And even, O king, if he does wrong he lives discreetly. just, O king, as a married woman sins only in secret and in privacy, so does the guilty Samana walk discreetly in his wrongdoing. These are the ten qualities, O king, found in the guilty Samana, distinguishing him from the guilty layman. 52. 'And what are the ten ways in which, besides, he purifies a gift given to him? He purifies it in that he wears an invulnerable coat of mail ; in that he is shorn in the fashion of the characteristic mark of renunciation used by the seers of old ; in that he is one who is included in the multitude of the brethren; in that he has taken his refuge in the Buddha, the Law, and the Order; in that he dwells in a lonely spot suitable for the exertion (after Arahatship); in that he seeks after the treasure of the teaching of the Conquerors; in that he preaches the most excellent law (Dhamma); in that his final destiny is to be reborn in the island of truth ; in that he is possessed of an honest belief that the Buddha is the chief of all beings; in that he has taken upon himself the keeping of the Uposatha day. These, O king, are the ten ways in which, besides, he purifies a gift given to him. 53. 'Even, O king, when thoroughly fallen, a guilty Samana yet sanctifies the gifts of the supporters of the faith--just as water, however thick, will wash away slush and mud and dirt and stains--just as hot, and even boiling water will put a mighty blazing fire out--just as food, however nasty, will allay the faintness of hunger. For thus, O king, hath it been said by the god over all gods in the most excellent Magghima Nik\u00E2ya in the chapter \"On gifts :\" \"Whene'er a good man, with believing heart, Presents what he hath earned in righteousness To th' unrighteous,--in full confidence On the great fruit to follow the good act-- Such gift is, by the giver, sanctified.\"' 'Most wonderful, N\u00E2gasena, and most strange! We asked you a mere ordinary question, and you, expounding it with reasons and with similes, have filled, as it were, the hearer with the sweet taste of the nectar (of Nirv\u00E2na ). just as a cook, or a cook's apprentice, taking a piece of ordinary nutmeg, will, treating it with various ingredients, prepare a dish for a king--so, N\u00E2gasena, when we asked you an ordinary question, have you, expounding it with reasons and similes, filled the hearer with the sweet taste of the nectar of Nirv\u00E2na.' [Here ends the dilemma as to the guilty recluse.] [DILEMMA THE SIXTIETH. THE SOUL IN WATER.] 54. 'Venerable N\u00E2gasena, this water when boiling over the fire gives forth many a sound, hissing and simmering . Is then, N\u00E2gasena, the water alive? Is it shouting at play? or is it crying out at the torment inflicted on it?' 'It is not alive, O king, there is no soul or being in water. It is by reason of the greatness of the shock of the heat of the fire that it gives forth sounds, hissing and simmering.' 'Now, venerable N\u00E2gasena, there are false teachers who on the ground that the water is alive reject the use of cold water, and warming the water feed themselves on tepid foods of various kinds . 'These men find fault with you and revile you, saying: \"The Sakyaputtiya Samanas do injury to the souls of one function .\" Dispel, remove, get rid of this their censure and blame.' 55. 'The water is not alive, O king. Neither is there therein either soul or being. And it is the great shock of the heat of the fire that makes it sound, hissing and simmering. It is like the water in holes in the ground, in ponds and pools and lakes, in reservoirs, in crevices and chasms, in wells, in low-lying places, and in lotus-tanks , which before the mighty onset of the hot winds is so deeply affected that it vanishes away. But does the water in that case, O king, give forth many a sound, hissing and simmering?' 'Certainly not, Sir.' 'But, if it were alive, the water would then also make some sound. Know therefore, O king, that there is no soul, neither being, in water; and that it is the greatness of the shock of the heat of the water that makes it give forth sounds. 56. 'And hear another reason, O king, for the same thing. If water, O king, with grains of rice in it, is put in a vessel and covered up, but not placed over the fireplace, would it then give forth sound?' 'No, Sir. It would remain quiet and unmoved.' 'But if you were to put the same water, just as it is in the vessel, over a fireplace , and then light up the fire, would the water remain quiet and motionless?' 'Certainly not, Sir. It would move and be agitated, become perturbed and all in commotion, waves would arise in it, it would rush up and down and in every direction, it would roll up and boil over , and a garland of foam would be formed above it.' 'But why so, O king, when water in its ordinary state remains quiet and motionless?' 'It is because of the powerful impulse of the heat of the fire that the water, usually so still, gives forth many a sound, bubbling and hissing.' 'Then thereby know, O king, that there is no soul in water, neither being; and that it is the strong heat of the fire that causes it to make sounds. 57. 'And hear another reason, O king, for the same thing. Is there not water to be found in every house put into water-pots with their mouths closed up?' 'Yes, Sir.' 'Well, does that water move, is it agitated, perturbed, in commotion, does it form into waves, does it rush up and down and in every direction, does it roll up and roll over , is it covered with foam?' 'No! That water is in its ordinary state. It remains still and quiet.' 'But have you ever heard that all this is true of the water in the great ocean? and that rearing up it breaks against the strand with a mighty roar?' 'Yes, I have both heard of it, and have seen it myself--how the water in the great ocean lifts itself up a hundred, two hundred, cubits high, towards the sky.' 'But why, whereas water in its ordinary state remains motionless and still, does the water in the ocean both move and roar?' 'That is by reason of the mighty force of the onset of the wind, whereas the water in the water-jars neither moves nor makes any noise, because nothing shakes it.' 'Well, the sounds given forth by boiling water are the result, in a similar way, of the great heat of the fire.' 58. 'Do not people cover over the dried-up mouth of a drum with dried cow-leather?' 'Yes, they do.' 'Well, is there any soul or being, O king, in a drum?' 'Certainly not, Sir.' 'Then how is it that a drum makes sounds?' 'By the action or effort of a woman or a man.' 'Well, just as that is why the drum sounds, so is it by the effect of the heat of the fire that the water sounds. And for this reason also you might know, O king, that there is no soul, neither being, in water; and that it is the heat of the fire which causes it to make sounds . 59. 'And I, too, O king, have something yet further to ask of you--thus shall this puzzle be thoroughly threshed out. How is it? Is it true of every kind of vessel that water heated in it makes noises, or only of some kinds of vessels?' 'Not of all, Sir. Only of some.' 'But then you have yourself, O king, abandoned the position you took up. You have come over to my side-that there is no soul, neither being, in water. For only if it made noises in whatever vessel it were heated could it be right to say that it had a soul. There cannot be two kinds of water--that which speaks, as it were, which is alive, and that which does not speak, and does not live. If all water were alive, then that which the great elephants, when they are in rut, suck up in their trunks, and pour out over their towering frames, or putting into their mouths take right into their stomachs--that water, too, when crushed flat between their teeth, would make a sound. And great ships, a hundred cubits long, heavily laden, full of hundreds of packages of goods, pass over the sea--the water crushed by them, too, would make sounds. And mighty fish, leviathans with bodies hundreds of leagues long , since they dwell in the great ocean, immersed in the depths of it, must, so living in it, be constantly taking into their mouths and spouting out the ocean--and that water, too, crushed between their gills or in their stomach, would make sounds. But as, even when tormented with the grinding and crushing of all such mighty things, the water gives no sound, therefore, O king, you may take it that there is no soul, neither being, in water.' 'Very good, N\u00E2gasena! With fitting discrimination has the puzzle put to you been solved. just, N\u00E2gasena, as a gem of inestimable value which had come into the hands of an able master goldsmith, clever and well trained, would meet with due appreciation, estimation, and praise-just as a rare pearl at the hands of a dealer in pearls, a fine piece of woven stuff at the hands of a cloth merchant , or red sandal wood at the hands of a perfumer--just so in that way has this puzzle put to you been solved with the discrimination it deserved.'

With this act he has convinced everyone that he is the true maou. Three days later Yuuri wakes up with G\u00FCnter watching over him. Wolfram comes in and chases him away. Wolfram tells Yuuri that Conrad and Gwendal have gone off to settle a skirmish in a small border town of humans and Yuuri realizes it's the same town he was in before and insists on going to help. Wolfram agrees to take him out there."@en . . . . . "23"^^ . "Chiba agrees to join Ryusuke's band as the singer, as long as Ryusuke promises to hook him up with 'a healthy looking girl'. Meanwhile, Koyuki continues practicing playing the guitar. Mr. Saitou tells Koyuki that he and his old band mates are entering a music competition and have signed Koyuki up as one of the band members. Koyuki begins practicing with Mr. Saitou's band. Koyuki also continues his swimming lessons with Mr. Saitou. Koyuki receives another letter from his cousin, Hiro, this time bragging about his music instructor. Koyuki replies with a letter about his instructor and decides once and for all not to give up learning to play guitar. Meanwhile, Ryusuke introduces Chiba to two 'healthy' girls. Chiba tells him that he has no grasp of the meaning of 'healthy'. Later on, Izumi and Kayo go through Chiba's cd collection and ask the boys what the name of their band is going to be. Ryusuke writes down a list of possible names that all include his own name in them. Chiba doesn't approve, but upon spotting Beck, states that the band should be called BECK as a temporary name. There is a storm the night of the music competition and Koyuki assumes it has been cancelled. While he's thinking this, Maho throws a stone through his window and asks to be let in. Maho takes a shower, since she'd been caught in the rain, then goes with Koyuki to the festival where the music competition will be held. At the festival, one of Mr. Saitou's band members gets drunk and hurts himself, becoming unable to perform. Maho offers to sing in his stead. While Koyuki is in the bathroom, he overhears that the contest is rigged. He tells Maho, but she insists that they try anyway. Mr. Saitou tells them to make it a wager and whoever loses has to strip naked. Koyuki is extremely nervous about the performance, which causes him to trip as he gets on the stage. Maho asks Koyuki to accompany her in singing the song. They lose the performance, due to the men in the bathroom being correct about the contest being rigged. Koyuki and Maho sneak to the school pool after the performance and Maho strips down and swims naked, since she lost the wager. Koyuki is nervous about being caught until Maho starts singing Dying Breed's song, \"Swimming Bare\". Koyuki then takes off his clothes and joins her in the pool. They sing the song together until a drunk Mr. Saitou interrupts them, telling them that he beat up the winners and took their prize."@en . . . "Storm Warning"@en . . "Volume 1"@en . "30"^^ .

As Iremi reaches Enzu, she asks if he\u2019s okay. Enzu, trembling, tells Iremi that Edermask is too strong and he had just used his strongest attack. But Iremi responds that she expected him to be this powerful and would help Enzu for his next attack. Edermask looks at his slightly closed hand and thinks to himself that he hasn\u2019t felt this way in a long time, but also he doesn\u2019t want to get too serious. He then clenches his hand. Iremi asks Enzu to buy her time as she prepares her strongest spell. Enzu gives an affirmation.
