v1.c6.401

There is a story of how he eased a woman’s labour pains by an act of truth. The words he used in this saccakiriya (yato ahaṃ sabbaññutabuddhassa ariyassa ariyāya jātiyā jāto) have come to be regarded as a paritta to ward off all dangers and constitute the Angulimāla Paritta. The water that washed the stone on which he sat in the woman’s house came to be regarded as a panacea.⁶
