92.28

'The person you saw standing in the water—in the time of Kāśyapa Buddha, he was a renunciant who managed the water for the Saṃgha. Seeing the monks using an abundance of water, he gave it only to those he favoured, keeping the water back and refusing to provide it to the others. Because of these causes and conditions, he entered hell, standing alone in the water and crying out, "Water! Water!", enduring suffering without ceasing down to the present day.'
