 (Doing this is also called Beijing "Great  lion  amalgams" - Mahasihanada Sutta) 

 1.  Thus have  I heard. One time the  Buddha was  in Ujunna, in  Kannakatthala deer garden . At that moment, leaving Kassapa (Ca-lettuce) to the  Buddha , said greetings  ask for social visits  with the  Buddha  and stand aside. After standing to one side, naked Kassapa said to  Bhagavan :  2. -  The venerable  Gotama, I hear something like this : "recluse Gotama  criticized  every  ascetic ,  absolute 

Pure ,  supernatural , We see some  ascetics,  but live less austere ... After the general body collapse  , must be born in the evil, the  beast , the land,  hell . This Kassapa, in this life, with the  heavenly eye purified ,  superhuman , I see some ascetic  but less austere than life ... After the body damage  public network , was born in  good fun ,  paradise , realm This life. Kassapa, having known the true  truth of  the future, the past, the birth, the extermination of such  ascetics  ,    

     Ashes  all  ascetic , all   austere lifestyles ?
