2. 1. With Indaka
3. With a Spirit Named Sakka
4. At one time the Buddha was staying near Rājagaha, on the Vulture’s Peak Mountain.
5. Then a spirit named Sakka went up to the Buddha, and addressed him in verse:
6. “You’ve given up all ties,
7. and are fully freed.
8. It’s not a good idea for you, ascetic,
9. to be instructing others.”
10. “No matter what the apparent reason
11. why people are together, Sakka,
12. it’s unworthy for a wise person
13. to not think of the other with sympathy.
14. If you instruct others
15. with a mind clear and confident,
16. your compassion and empathy
17. don’t create attachments.”
