Dhammapada Verse 395 

Pamsukuladharam jantum
kisam dhamanisanthatam
ekam vanasmim jhayantam
tamaham brumi brahamanam.

The Story of Kisagotami

While residing at the Gijjhakuta hill, the Buddha uttered Verse (395) of this book, with reference to Kisagotami.

On one occasion, Sakka, king of the devas, came with his followers to pay homage to the Buddha. At the same lime, Theri Kisagotami, by her supernormal power came through the sky to pay homage to the Buddha. But when she saw Sakka and his entourage paying homage to the Buddha, she retreated. Sakka seeing her, asked the Buddha who the lady was, and the Buddha replied, "O Sakka! She is my daughter Kisagotami. Once, she came to me in sorrow and distress through the loss of her son and I made her see the impermanent, the unsatisfactory and the non-self nature of all conditioned things. As a consequence of that she attained Sotapatti Fruition, joined the Order, and became an arahat. She is one of my eminent female disciples and is matchless in the ascetic practice of wearing robes made from rags collected from a dust heap."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 395: Him I call a brahmana who wears robes made from rags (picked up from a dust heap), who is lean with veins standing out, who meditates alone in the forest.

佛陀讚嘆吉離舍瞿曇彌比丘


穿著糞掃衣 (註1) ，經脈清瞿可見，獨自在林中避靜處禪定的人，我稱之為婆羅門。(偈 395)


　　 有一次，帝釋和諸天神前來向佛陀問訊。吉離舍瞿曇彌比丘尼 (註2) 同時也運用神通，從天空中前來向佛陀頂禮問訊，但當她看見帝釋等人時，就先行迴避離開，但卻被帝釋一眼瞥見。帝釋於是請教佛陀她是何人。

　　 佛陀說：「帝釋！她是我的女弟子－－吉離舍瞿曇彌比丘尼。她在兒子去世時，十分悲傷沮喪地來找我，我教導她所有因緣和合的萬物都是無常的。她因此了解佛法，出家為比丘尼，並且證得阿羅漢果。她是我做最傑出的女眾弟子之一。


註１：糞掃衣：出家人撿拾別人丟掉的碎布，洗乾淨後，聯綴成袈裟。

註２：本故事為「死而復生」的續篇。

Verse 392: If from somebody one should learn the Teaching of the Buddha, he should respectfully pay homage to that teacher, as a brahmin worships the sacrificial fire.
