late Toshio who exhorted
Once a heretics Fanzhi's only son died, and his memorial day and night, unkempt, ragged clothes, sleeping in between the graves, crying incessantly. After Buddha, very sad pity, for he said: "Today's Chouyou distress, chosen by loving born."
Fanzhi listened, suddenly Dawu, telling everyone: "loving the Council Kaike Chouyou distress "
this sentence passed Zhanzhuan ear Bosiniwang, the king was very puzzled, asked devout Buddhist people of the late Cliff:

So, eager for anything in the world, will lead to bitter. "Bosiniwang heard, if the Wu, fell silent. language.
convert Buddha
In the Dharma long nurtured, Bosiniwang getting some sort of understanding. On one occasion, the Buddha brought to Bosiniwang of Sravasti rich elderly Mahanama passed away, leaving behind a fortune, because there was no Zaixi, the property had to be attributed to the state treasury. Mahanama elderly during his lifetime is very frugal harsh, though rich, but ugly food shabby clothes, can not bear giving poor, dependent Sangha. Wang can not help but sigh: "people on the world can not afford to get Shengmiao Cheoy Lee craving, can not indulge in heedlessness, it is extremely rare!"
The Buddha then said a poem verse :
greed to win money, is fascinated by greed,
Sri Lanka edge heedlessness so, when great bitterness newspaper.
Hui who win money, energy from the music is good enough,
giver for merit, raw day by Fuller.
Bosiniwang heard this verse poem, heart rejoice. Inculcate in the Buddha, gradually rectify behavior, not only a wise monarch, law enforcement has become a loyal disciple of the Buddha.
