The Seven Extra Discourses - 99
Bhiyyo 1 pañcasate ñatvā vane Kāpilavatthave,
He knew there were more than five hundred in the wood near Kapilavatthu (like this),
tato āmantayī Satthā sāvake sāsane rate: [7]
therefore the Teacher addressed those disciples who delight in the teaching:
“Devakāyā abhikkantā, te vijānātha bhikkhavo!”
“A host of gods have drawn near (to us), you should know who they are, monks!”
Te ca ātappam-akaruṁ, sutvā Buddhassa sāsanaṁ, [8]
Then (those monks) became ardent, after hearing the Buddha’s teaching,
tesaṁ pātur-ahū 2 ñāṇaṁ, amanussānadassanaṁ -
and knowledge was manifest to them, seeing those non-human beings -
appeke satam-addakkhuṁ, sahassaṁ atha sattatiṁ. [9]
and some of them saw a hundred, a thousand, or seventy (thousand).
Sataṁ eke sahassānaṁ amanussānam-addasuṁ, 3
Some of them saw a hundred thousand of those non-human beings,
appekenantam-addakkhuṁ disā sabbā phuṭā ahū. 4 [10]
and some saw an endless number spread out in every direction.
Tañ-ca sabbaṁ abhiññāya vavakkhitvāna 5 Cakkhumā,
Having deep knowledge of all that the Visionary desired to speak,
tato āmantayī Satthā sāvake sāsane rate: [11]
therefore the Teacher addressed those disciples who delight in the teaching:
“Devakāyā abhikkantā, te vijānātha bhikkhavo! 6
“A host of gods have drawn near (to us), you should know who they are, monks!
Ye vohaṁ kittayissāmi girāhi anupubbaso. [12]
I will proclaim their (names) to you with lyrics in regular order.
