At the same time, land expansion, fire from hell A-Pi tan sprayed on his body burned. Prior to the last breath, he remembered the advice of the chief priest teaching: "This is the teaching that Brahmin Parasariya gave me". Then he mourn and read these two verses:

What people do,

During the Bodhisattva made empowerments throne, a king's servant named Gamani-Canda Janasandha was thinking: "This is the glory of the Kingdom if he rules with the assistant pro who co ages to the king. we now elderly, unable servant young prince, so we will live up farming in the countryside ".
So he was out of town about three miles away and living in a small village. But he had no cows for plowing. After the rain, two cows he borrowed from a friend, the day he finished plowing, for the cows to eat grass, and cattle, the return to the owner.
Meanwhile, the owner was sitting in the middle of dinner with his wife home. The cow went into the house, very familiar. While the cows come in, raise the bowl to her husband, and the wife put the bowl down. Gamani-Canda see thinking: "They did not invite me to eat", immediately removed and not your hand-delivered the cows. Night came, the thieves broke the barn and the cows took him away.
In the morning, the owner went into the barn, the cow did not see, said the cow was stolen immediately thought, "I'll nab Gamani", then went to meet him and said:
- Hey you, please pay for my cows.
- But the cows were in the barn now.
- But he has delivered to us where?

- So this is the messenger of the king to invite him to go.
Now, the people of this country have their custom when picking a rock or a shell and say: This is the king's messenger please go. If anyone heard: This is the king's messengers, but do not go, will be the king himself. So when he heard the word "messenger", he went under.
While two people went to the king they passed the village of Gamani have a friend in. He said to the other:

The wife escalated rice warehouses, because too hasty to fall to the ground causing her miscarriage. Just then the husband goes on, saw it immediately said:

So when they are away, he saw a hillside cliff. Under the shade of that hill, the father and son divers woven baskets are a mat, Gamani-Canda said:
- Dear sir, I want to go to the bathroom, wait here for a while until I return.
After saying this, he was up on the hill, drop down and fall right over the abyss father workmen back woven baskets. Older workers seriously injured baskets died on the spot. Gamani stood up. The son said:

And when they returned to find prey, I was satisfied and satiated big body out, but crawled into the cave very quickly, I do not touch the ribs hang themselves. Why so? Ask the king and bring the answer back to me.
