Ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā gayāyaṁ viharati ṭaṅkitamañce sūcilomassa yakkhassa bhavane.

At one time the Buddha was staying near Gayā on the cut-stone ledge in the haunt of Spiky the native spirit.

Tena kho pana samayena kharo ca yakkho sūcilomo ca yakkho bhagavato avidūre atikkamanti.

Now at that time the native spirits Shaggy and Spiky were passing by not far from the Buddha.

So Shaggy said to Spiky,

“That’s an ascetic.”
8

“नेसोne·so समणो,sa·ma·ṇo समणकोsa·ma·ṇa·ko एसो।e·so

“Neso samaṇo, samaṇako eso.

“That’s no ascetic, he’s a faker!

Atha kho sūcilomo yakkho yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavato kāyaṁ upanāmesi.

Then Spiky went up to the Buddha and leaned up against his body,
11

अथa·tha खोkho भगवाbha·ga·vā कायंkā·yaṃ अपनामेसि।a·pa·nā·me·si

Atha kho bhagavā kāyaṁ apanāmesi.

but the Buddha pulled away.
12

Then Spiky said to the Buddha,
13

“भायसिbhā·ya·si मं,maṃ समणा”ति?sa·ma·ṇā

“bhāyasi maṁ, samaṇā”ti?

“Are you afraid, ascetic?”
14

“नna ख्वाहंkhvā·haṃ तं,taṃ आवुसो,ā·vu·so भायामि;bhā·yā·mi

“Na khvāhaṁ taṁ, āvuso, bhāyāmi;

If you don’t answer me, I’ll drive you insane, or explode your heart, or grab you by the feet and throw you to the far shore of the Ganges!”
