阿那律精進，七日七夜眼睫不交，眠是眼食，既七日不眠，眼則喪睛。失肉眼已，佛令求天眼，繫念在緣，四大淨色半頭而發，徹障內外，明闇悉覩，對梵王曰：「吾見釋迦大千世界如覩掌果。」《增一》云：「我佛法中，天眼徹視者，阿那律比丘第一。」那律既失肉眼，佛與諸比丘恒為裁縫，佛在舍衛拘薩羅窟，佛與八百比丘集，為阿那律作三衣，佛自為舒張，諸比丘截者縫者，一日即成。佛廣為說出家受衣，進止共俱，無量人得道。

> Aniruddha was vigorous, not closing his eyelids for seven days and seven nights. Sleep is the food of the eyes, and having not slept for seven days, his eyes lost their pupils. Having lost his fleshy eyes, the Buddha instructed him to seek the divine eye. Focusing his mindfulness on the object, the pure form of the four great elements arose across half his head, penetrating obstacles within and without, seeing clearly both brightness and darkness. He said to King Brahmā: 'I see Śākyamuni's trichiliocosm as clearly as viewing a fruit in the palm of my hand.' The Ekottarika-āgama says: 'Among my disciples in the Buddha's Dharma, the bhikṣu Aniruddha is foremost in seeing penetratingly with the divine eye.' Once Aniruddha lost his fleshy eyes, the Buddha and the bhikṣus constantly sewed robes for him. While the Buddha was at the Kosala cave in Śrāvastī, the Buddha gathered with eight hundred bhikṣus to make the three robes for Aniruddha. The Buddha personally stretched out the cloth, while the bhikṣus cut and sewed, completing them in a single day. The Buddha extensively explained the going forth, receiving of robes, and deportment; immeasurable people attained the Way.
