His pure faith was exceedingly sincere, and he eventually left the household to practice austere discipline. Once, while practicing dhūta on the Eastern Mountain, he stayed overnight beneath a tree. A tiger came and rubbed his head, and seeing Jin sitting upright without being disturbed, knelt before him and left. Thereafter, whenever he walked or sat alone, a blue-grey horse was constantly seen guarding him on either side. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.83](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.8.83) - [Next: 8.85](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.8.85) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059~en-mt.8.84) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.8.84](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.8.84) · Pramāṇa
