19.25

The Buddha addressed the bhikṣus: "That Śakra, Lord of the Devas, is a sovereign of sovereign power, yet he still reveres the Buddha, Dharma, and so forth. Bhikṣus who have left home to study the Way should also revere the Buddha in this manner. That Śakra, Lord of the Devas, the husband of Śacī, pays homage to the Dharma and Saṃgha, and also praises those who pay homage to the Dharma and Saṃgha. Since you have been able to leave home with correct faith to study the Way, you should also praise those who pay homage to the Dharma and Saṃgha."
