15.19

「梵志!時,善宿比丘來至我所,頭面禮足,在一面坐,不以此緣語我,我尋語曰:『如我所記,究羅帝者實爾以不?』答曰:『實爾,如世尊言。』梵志!我如是數數為善宿比丘現神通證,而彼猶言:『世尊不為我現神通。』」

“Wanderer, the monk Sunakṣatra then came to me, bowed his head at my feet, and sat to one side, but that wasn’t what he spoke to me about. I quickly said, ‘My prediction about Khoradattika turned out to be true, didn’t it?’

Charles Patton, The Long Discourses (selected sūtras)

“He answered, ‘It really was as the Bhagavān said.’

Charles Patton, The Long Discourses (selected sūtras)

“Wanderer, thus did I demonstrate evidence of my miraculous abilities to the monk Sunakṣatra on numerous occasions, yet he still says, ‘The Bhagavān didn’t demonstrate miraculous abilities for me.’”
