At Sāvatthī. Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

Now at that time the Buddha had gone into retreat for the day’s meditation. Tena kho pana samayena bhagavā divāvihāragato hoti paṭisallīno. Then the independent divinities Subrahmā and Suddhāvāsa went to the Buddha and stationed themselves one by each door-post. Atha kho subrahmā ca paccekabrahmā suddhāvāso ca paccekabrahmā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkamiṁsu; upasaṅkamitvā paccekaṁ dvārabāhaṁ nissāya aṭṭhaṁsu.

Then Subrahmā spoke this verse about the mendicant Kokālika in the Buddha’s presence: Atha kho subrahmā paccekabrahmā kokālikaṁ bhikkhuṁ ārabbha bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi:

“Who having known would judge “Appameyyaṁ paminanto, the immeasurable by measuring them? Kodha vidvā vikappaye; I think anyone who’d do such a thing Appameyyaṁ pamāyinaṁ, is an ordinary person, shrouded in darkness.” Nivutaṁ taṁ maññe puthujjanan”ti.
