2.30

「佛言:『卿欲使火燃不?』問之至三。曰:『欲使燃。』佛言:『可去,火當燃。』應聲皆燃。迦葉復念:『是大沙門,神則神矣,然未得道,不如我已得羅漢也!』

"The Buddha said: 'Do you wish for the fires to burn, or not?' He asked him this three times. [Kāśyapa] replied: 'I wish for them to burn.' The Buddha said: 'You may go; the fires will burn.' At his words, they all burst into flame. Kāśyapa thought again: 'This great śramaṇa is certainly spiritual, yet he has not attained the Way, and is not equal to me, who have already attained the status of an arhat!'
