I then replied to the attendant Ānanda: 'Wishing to seek to leave household life and cultivate the Buddha-Dharma, I requested the Tathāgata three times, but the Tathāgata would not grant permission. For this reason, I am sorrowful, that is all.' At that time, Ānanda replied to me, saying: 'Mother, do not sorrow. I shall beseech the Tathāgata to allow you, Mother, to enter the Buddha-Dharma.' Having heard these words, Gautamī was filled with great joy. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.5.50) - [Next: 5.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.5.52) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156~en-mt.5.51) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [ཐབས་མཁས་པ་ཆེན་པོ་སངས་རྒྱས་དྲིན་ལན་བསབ་པའི་མདོ](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.tibet.kangyur.mdo_sde.353.5.24) — Classical Tibetan --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.5.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.5.51) · Pramāṇa
