Uppalavaṇṇā repeated them to help her to reflect on the harm and vileness of sensual desires. Two others are utterances of joy on the distinctions she had won and another records a miracle she performed before the Buddha, with his consent. The rest contain a conversation⁴ between Uppalavaṇṇā and Māra, wherein she tells him that she has passed completely beyond his power. - [Previous: v1.c9.1301](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.1301) - [Next: v1.c9.1303](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.1303) - [Up: v1.c9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.1302](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.1302) · Pramāṇa
