A guildmaster's daughter rose early to sweep the ground, and it happened that the Tathāgata passed before the gate. Seeing him, she felt joy and attentively gazed at the Buddha. Her lifespan was shortly cut short, and she died immediately and was born in the heavens. Now, one who is born in heaven by rule has three thoughts. Reflecting, she wondered: “What was my original body?” She knew of herself that it was a human body. “Where am I born now?” She knew for certain it was a heaven. “What karma did I perform in the past to come and be born here?” She knew it was due to the wholesome karma of seeing the Buddha with joy that she obtained this fruition. Grateful for the Buddha's profound kindness, she came to make offerings to the Buddha. The Buddha expounded the Dharma for her, and she attained the fruit of srotāpanna. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 20.67](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.20.67) - [Next: 20.69](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.20.69) - [Up: 20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.20) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123~en-mt.20.68) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.20.68](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.20.68) · Pramāṇa
