He came, after his conversion, with the Buddha to Laṭṭhivana, and the people wondered if he had really become a follower of the Buddha. He dispelled their doubts by describing the folly of the sacrifices which he had earlier practised, and, laying his head on the Buddha’s feet, did obeisance. Then he rose seven times into the air, and, after having worshipped the Buddha, sat on one side. The people marvelled at the Buddha’s powers of conversion, which, the Buddha said, were not surprising since he possessed them already as a Bodhisatta. - [Previous: v2.c31.1610](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c31.1610) - [Next: v2.c31.1612](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c31.1612) - [Up: v2.c31](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c31) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c31.1611](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c31.1611) · Pramāṇa
