ある時、庵(アーシュラマ)に留まっていたカクッツタ族の王子は、大聖牟尼スティークシュナの傍らに恭しく座し、謙虚に次の言葉を述べた。
Once while sitting beside sage Sutikshna at the hermitage Rama humbly addressed him:
Vinaya (humility) before spiritual authority: dharma-oriented inquiry begins with respectful approach to the wise.
At Sutikshna’s hermitage, Rama sits close to the sage and begins a respectful conversation.
Praṇaya with vinaya (courteous intimacy): Rama is close enough to ask questions, yet maintains reverence.
