sn22.87:5.2 Then Venerable Vakkali addressed his carers,
sn22.87:5.3 “Come on, reverends, lift my cot and take me to the Black Rock on the slopes of Isigili.
sn22.87:5.4 For how on earth could one such as I imagine dying in an inhabited area!”
sn22.87:5.5 “Yes, reverend,” replied those mendicants, and did as he asked.
sn22.87:5.6 Meanwhile, the Buddha spent the rest of that night and day on Vulture’s Peak Mountain.
sn22.87:5.7 Then, late at night, two glorious deities, lighting up the entire Vulture’s Peak, went up to the Buddha, bowed, and stood to one side.
sn22.87:5.8 One deity said to him,
sn22.87:5.9 “Sir, the mendicant Vakkali is intent on liberation!”
sn22.87:5.10 And another deity said to him,
sn22.87:5.11 “He’ll definitely be well freed!”
sn22.87:5.12 This is what those deities said.
sn22.87:5.13 Then they bowed and respectfully circled the Buddha, keeping him on their right side, before vanishing right there.
