經律異相 18.68

18.68

There was a śramaṇa who came to urinate without snapping his fingers, splashing the face of a ghost in the privy. The fierce ghost became furious and wished to kill the śramaṇa. But the śramaṇa upheld the precepts, so although the fierce ghost followed him, spying out his flaws, it could find no vantage. Later, when the śramaṇa acted as a mahāparināyaka and someone offered these provisions to the saṅgha, right upon his seat he attained the path of an arhat.
