5.7 SECOND SHOULD-BE-DONE MANSION (57)

(Dutiya-Karaniya-vimana)

This is similar to the Sixth, except only that there the food was given to the Bhagava(Lord Buddha), here to an Elder.

1-5 (As in 54. 1-5)

6 "Acts of merit should be done by a wise man of discrimination, in which what is given to monks who are rightly faring is of great fruit(benefit).

7 Verily a monk came from forest to village for my welfare. In that, the mind devout, I came to the Thirty-three(heaven).

8 Because of this is my beauty such. . . and my beauty illumines all the quarter." (As in I.6,7, etc.)
