About Pāvā

Thus	I	heard

1	1	1	1	1	1	1
At	one	time	the	Gra-	cious	One

1	1	1	1	1	1
was	dwel-	ling	near	Pā-	vā,

1	1	1	1	1	1
near	the	Flock	of	Goats	Shrine,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
at	the	home	of	the	Flock	of	Goats	yak-	kha.

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
Then	at	that	time	the	Gra-	cious	One,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1
in	the	dark-	ness	of	the	night,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
was	sit-	ting	in	the	o-	pen	air,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
and	the	sky-	god	was	rai-	ning	light-	ly

1	1	1
drop	by	drop

1	1	1	1	1	1	1
Then	the	Flock	of	Goats	yak-	kha

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
desi-	ring	to	give	rise	to	fear,	ter-	ror,	and	hor-	ror	in	the	Gra-	cious	One,

1	1	1	1	1	1
went	to	the	Gra-	cious	One,

1	1	1	1
and	after	go-	ing,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
not	far	a-	way	from	the	Gra-	cious	One

1	1	1	1	1
three	times	he	called	out

1	1	1	1	1	1	1
"Con-	fu-	sion,	great	con-	fu-	sion",

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
and	he	made	a	great	con-	fu-	sion,	"This	is	a	de-	mon	for	you,	a-	sce-	tic!"

1	1	1	1	1
Then	the	Gra-	cious	One,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
hav-	ing	un-	der-	stood	the	sig-	ni-	fi-	cance	of	it,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
on	that	oc-	ca-	sion	u-	ttered	this	ex-	al-	ted	ut-	te-	rance:

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
"He	is	a	brāh-	ma-	ṇa	when	he	has	gone	be-	yond	in	re-	gard	to	his	own	things,

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	1
Then	has	he	tran-	scen-	ded	this	de-	mon	and	the	great	con-	fu-	sion."
