Seeing him, the prince asked the charioteer, "What kind of person is this in front of me? His demeanor is dignified and decorous, his pace slow and steady; he looks straight ahead one fathom, not glancing to the left or right; holding his mind and maintaining his practice, he is unlike other people.

The charioteer said to the prince, "This is called a person who has left home. He always practices good dharmas and stays far away from what is not the Dharma; he well trains his faculties and well gives fearlessness; with loving-kindness and compassion toward all sentient beings, he does not kill or harm them, but protects and cares for them."
