" When they fell asleep, the gods from the tree came to the stairs (where his cup was), crying, and when he heard the cry,
- Who is crying?
- Venerable Thich Duc, son of the god Maṇila. - The white god.
- This is paradise Maṇila, why are you crying here?
- Venerable Thich Duc, I know tomorrow he left this place, so I cry.

But since he came to live in this place, the gods felt his heart, they all felt cool, they lived together very harmoniously, loving each other, living very peaceful. If he leaves this place tomorrow, that group of gods will arise angry, causing each other to fight back like before, the heart very much! I was afraid of the recurrence, so I was sad, I cried. You.

When the king came to the palace of Empress Dowager Sāmāvatī , everyone received the king, offered flowers and fragrant things, the king took and put the guitar on the place. The king was eating the glutinous food and finished sleeping.Then Mrs. Māgaṇṇiyā went to work as a guard, so that when the king did not notice, she to spit out the flower on the piano, the cobra to bring out, she immediately screamed: Snake! Snake! The serpent snake bear, spray poisoned obesity.
She blamed the king for not believing her words, and she reproached the Queen Sāmāvatī and the other women who deliberately attacked him:
- You are trying to harm the king, do you think the king died and you are safe?
When the king saw the cobra,
- You have done great evil! In the past, I did not believe in the words of Queen Empress Māgaṇṇiyā that you would punch holes in the wall to look out, and I would give you chicken soup as a soup for you, and you will not receive it. Today I put the cobra on my bed.
Supreme Queen Sāmāvatī advised to teach his 500 girlfriends that:
- Let me and my sister meditate on the word, and then meditate to the Emperor with the Queen Empress Māgaṇṇiyā . You and I do not have the heart to hate anyone.
The king ordered the chief of Queen Sāmāvatī , followed by a group of 500 girlfriends.

Seeing this, the king thought, "The arrows are so strong that they can penetrate the rock, the space is without obstacles, why the arrow can turn back seems to be directed at my heart. In fact, this arrow has no mind, not beings, not life, but also the grace of Empress Sāmāvatī, but I, human, do not know grace of her ".

- I will rely on the place where I love and will rely on the Buddha. I will give you grace.
- To the king, the goddess bent to the grace of His Majesty. May the Supreme King grant the grace that the goddess wants: To the Emperor, please take refuge, rely on the Buddha, the Dharma, the monk and the Buddha praised the 500 monks of the Sangha The palace gave the goddess the opportunity to be offered food for 7 days.

- I do not expect anything else, please ask His Majesty the gift of grace to the Buddha is to receive the Buddha's 500 million Buddha Daily Sang palace, so that the goddess is made blessing Bell Make offerings and hear the Dharma.

- This great king, according to the custom of the Buddhas, can not go to a place every day, because other places also expect the Buddha.
- So, I ask you to allow a monk and 500 monks to enter the palace daily, so that the men near the court in the palace have the opportunity to bless the donation. and heard the dharma.

Through the above story, due to the power of the metaphor, the weapons do not harm; Even, true love can also prevent the harm of the weapon. For example, the story of an ox loves a child, is nursing in the forest, an animal hunter, saw the cow, he took the spear straight to kill it, but by the love of a mother Breastfeeding, not running away, so the nose diverted away, do not harm the cow.
The fruits of compassion, fire or poison or weapons not only harm the person who has the heart, but also transforms the evil into a good person, transforming the righteous.
