A youth became very practised at the recollection of the<br />

Buddha, so when he was attacked by spirits he called out<br />

when the King found out he asked the Buddha if only this<br />

recollection was an effective protection, and the Buddha<br />

taught these six types of meditation.<br />

yesaṁ divā ca ratto ca niccaṁ Buddhagatā sati.<br />

awake to a good wakening,<br />

those who day and night constantly<br />

have mindfulness of the Buddha.<br />
