19.35

又四分律云。賓頭盧羅漢。本是優填王臣。由精勤苦行。王放出家得阿羅漢果。王後每出城參禮。寺去城二十里。諸佞臣見賓頭不起迎王。惡心諫王。王於後取佞臣諫危欲殺之。賓頭盧見王後來入門。便下床七步迎之。王怒曰。大德由來難動。今避席迎何耶。答曰。王前有好心來故不起迎。今懷惡心來。若不起迎恐當見殺。王歎曰。善哉。弟子愚戇妄受佞言。不識凡聖。王請悔過雖免地獄。然賓頭盧記王。由僧起迎故却後七日必失王位。恰如依記。被他隣國興兵來捉。經十二年鎖脚囚禁（自外云云）。

Furthermore, the Dharmaguptaka-vinaya states: The arhat Piṇḍola was originally a minister of King Udayana. Due to diligent austerities, the king permitted him to renounce the householder's life, and he attained the fruit of an arhat. Afterwards, whenever the king went out of the city to pay homage, the monastery was twenty li from the city. The various sycophantic ministers saw that Piṇḍola did not rise to welcome the king, and with evil minds remonstrated with the king. Later, the king accepted the sycophantic ministers' advice, endangered [by their words], and wished to kill him. When Piṇḍola saw the king coming and entering the gate later, he immediately descended from his couch and walked seven paces to welcome him. The king said angrily, 'The Venerable One has always been difficult to move; why do you now leave your seat to welcome me?' He answered, saying, 'Previously the king came with a good mind, therefore I did not rise to welcome you; today you come harbouring an evil mind, and if I did not rise to welcome you, I feared I would be killed.' The king sighed, saying, 'Excellent! I, your disciple, was foolish and muddled, falsely accepting sycophantic words and not discerning between the common and the noble.' Although the king's request for repentance spared him from hell, Piṇḍola nonetheless predicted for the king that because a monk had risen to welcome him, after seven days he would certainly lose his royal throne. It turned out exactly as predicted: a neighbouring country raised troops and came to seize him, and he was chained by the feet and imprisoned for twelve years (and so forth, as detailed elsewhere).
