於是如來便出廣長舌相。以覆其面上及肉髻。并覆兩耳。七過舐頭。縮舌入口。色光出照大千世界。蔽日月明乃至阿迦膩吒天。光還繞身七匝從頂上入。以神足力現陰馬藏相。令火鬘獨見。餘人不覩。火鬘童子具足見佛三十二相無一缺減。踊躍歡喜不能自勝。如來為火鬘說法。止其三業令行菩薩行。火鬘即禮佛足長跪白言。我今懺悔。身不可行而行。口不可言而言。意不可念而念。願世尊受我此懺。從今已往不復敢犯。如此至三。迦葉如來默然受之。火鬘童子。護喜童子。俱禮拜退。後自尤責悔不早聞失於道利。於是火鬘童子說偈讚護喜曰。

The youth Uttara and the youth Nandipāla both bowed and withdrew. Afterward, Uttara reproached himself, regretting that he had not heard earlier and had lost the benefits of the Way.
