231. Ekaṃ samayaṃ aññataro bhikkhu kosalesu viharati aññatarasmiṃ vanasaṇḍe. Tena kho pana samayena so bhikkhu divāvihāragato pāpake akusale vitakke vitakketi, seyyathidaṃ – kāmavitakkaṃ, byāpādavitakkaṃ, vihiṃsāvitakkaṃ. Atha kho yā tasmiṃ vanasaṇḍe adhivatthā devatā tassa bhikkhuno anukampikā atthakāmā taṃ bhikkhuṃ saṃvejetukāmā yena so bhikkhu tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā taṃ bhikkhuṃ gāthāhi ajjhabhāsi –

‘‘Ayoniso manasikārā, so vitakkehi khajjasi;

Ayoniso ² paṭinissajja, yoniso anucintaya.

‘‘Satthāraṃ dhammamārabbha, saṅghaṃ sīlāni attano;

Adhigacchasi pāmojjaṃ, pītisukhamasaṃsayaṃ;

Tato pāmojjabahulo, dukkhassantaṃ karissasī’’ti.

Atha kho so bhikkhu tāya devatāya saṃvejito saṃvegamāpādīti.
