The Discourse on Nandivisāla
109.
Standing to one side, Nandivisāla the young god addressed the Blessed One in verse -
"With four wheels and nine doors, full and bound with greed;
Born from mud, O great hero, how will there be progress?"
"Having cut the thong and the strap, desire and evil greed;
Having uprooted craving with its root, thus there will be progress."
