Soon afterwards King Bhaddiya, Anuruddha, Ānanda, Bhagu, Kimila, and Devadatta, with the barber Upāli as the seventh, went out to the park with the fourfold army, just as they had in the past. After going a good distance, they turned back the army. They then entered a foreign territory, removed their ornaments, bound them into a bundle with an upper robe, and said to Upāli, “Now turn back, Upāli. This is enough for you to live on.” As Upāli was returning, he thought, “The Sakyans are temperamental. They may think that I’m responsible for the departure of these young men and have me executed. Now, if these young Sakyans are going forth into homelessness, why shouldn’t I?” Undoing the bundle, he hung the goods from a tree, saying, “This is given to whoever sees it. They may take it away.” And he returned to the young Sakyans. Seeing Upāli coming, they said to him, “Why are you coming back, Upāli?” And he told what he had done. “You have done the right thing. The Sakyans are indeed temperamental. They might well have held you responsible for our departure and have had you executed.”
