Ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā sakkesu viharati silāvatiyaṁ.

At one time the Buddha was staying in the land of the Sakyans near Silāvatī.

Tena kho pana samayena āyasmā samiddhi bhagavato avidūre appamatto ātāpī pahitatto viharati.

Now at that time Venerable Samiddhi was meditating not far from the Buddha, diligent, keen, and resolute.

Atha kho āyasmato samiddhissa rahogatassa paṭisallīnassa evaṁ cetaso parivitakko udapādi:

Then as Venerable Samiddhi was in private retreat this thought came to his mind,

And then Māra the Wicked, knowing Samiddhi’s train of thought, went up to him and made a terrifyingly loud noise close by him. It seemed as if the earth was shattering.
14

Then Samiddhi went up to the Buddha, bowed, sat down to one side, and told him what had happened. The Buddha said,
15

“इधाहं,i·dhā·haṃ भन्ते,bhan·te भगवतोbha·ga·va·to अविदूरेa·vi·dū·re अप्पमत्तोap·pa·mat·to आतापीā·tā·pī पहितत्तोpa·hi·tat·to विहरामि।vi·ha·rā·mi

Go back to that same place, Samiddhi, and meditate, diligent, keen, and resolute.”
27

“Evaṁ, bhante”ti kho āyasmā samiddhi bhagavato paṭissutvā uṭṭhāyāsanā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā padakkhiṇaṁ katvā pakkāmi.

“Yes, sir,” replied Samiddhi. He rose from his seat, bowed, and respectfully circled the Buddha, keeping him on his right, before leaving.
28

Dutiyampi kho āyasmā samiddhi tattheva appamatto ātāpī pahitatto vihāsi.

And for a second time Samiddhi was meditating in that same place, diligent, ardent, and resolute.
29

Atha kho āyasmā samiddhi māraṁ pāpimantaṁ gāthāya ajjhabhāsi:

Then Samiddhi addressed Māra the Wicked in verse:
33

“सद्धायाहंsad·dhā·yā·haṃ पब्बजितो,pab·ba·ji·to

“Saddhāyāhaṁ pabbajito,

“I went forth out of faith

from the lay life to homelessness.

my mind is serene in immersion.

Make whatever illusions you want,

39

Atha kho māro pāpimā “jānāti maṁ samiddhi bhikkhū”ti dukkhī dummano tatthevantaradhāyīti.

Then Māra the Wicked, thinking, “The mendicant Samiddhi knows me!” miserable and sad, vanished right there.
