A king's body served as a couch for a rākṣasa, and heavenly garments served as a seat for a jackal. Even though the crown of a deva is exalted, it supported the feet of an animal. Is this not truly because honoring the Dharma comes first? Therefore, showing disrespect and arrogance is prohibited as an offense. Here, 'possessing wisdom' and 'great understanding' refer to worldly matters. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.149](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.149) - [Next: 2.151](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.151) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815~en-mt.2.150) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.150](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.150) · Pramāṇa
