for seven full days before they get out of town, as if
to go have fun to the park to exercise, accompanied
by the troops of elephants, the line horse riding, carriage and infantry.
Arriving outside the city, four regiments of soldiers were ordered to

also responsible for returning The prize
packages. When Upali, the barber, waiter
the princes parted from his masters, there were voices
harsh and frightening, as if a vast and dense forests
It roared and shook in grief.
A moment later after Upali, the barber separated from the
prince, he stopped and thought, "The Lord of the Sakya very
harsh and cruel. They will either accuse me, "Upali, handyman
This razor has killed six princes "and they will
reduce the order to kill me. If the princes of this
can release the glitz and glory of the palace, releasing
invaluable jewels like throwing saliva alone, for the sake of
to receive ordination, why I, a low
and the poor are unable to receive ordination. "With

punish you for that false accusation that you have
killing six princes. "
Six princes are invited Upali with them towards
Anupiya mango grove in which the Tathagata dwells. Arriving at

in a place free from the six defects, and said, "The Lord

because of arrogance caused by our birth as a
family of kings; this person, Upali was our waiter for
years. We beg You to give priority
