Egg-Born Donor of Anointments

Vilepanadāyaka aṇḍaja (SN 30.13)

1. I heard thus. At one time the Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anàthapiõóika in Jeta's grove in Sàvatthi.

2. Then a certain monk approached the Blessed One, worshipped, and sat on a side.

3. Sitting, that monk said to the Blessed One: ßVenerable sir, how is it that a certain one, after death, is born with the foes of serpents born from eggs?û

4. ßHere, monk, a certain one acts in two ways by body, speech, and mind. He learns that foes of serpents born from eggs enjoy long life, beauty, and much pleasantness.

5. ßThen it occurs to him, `May I be born with the foes of serpents born from eggs, after death.'

6. ßHe gives Anointments. At the breakup of the body, after death, he is born with the foes of serpents born from eggs.

7. ßMonk, this is the reason for a certain one to be born with the foes of serpents born from eggs, after death.û
