1At Sāvatthī.

“Possessions, honor, and popularity are brutal …

Who should be struck by lightning? A trainee who comes into possessions, honor, and popularity before they achieve their heart’s desire.

2‘Lightning strike’ is a term for possessions, honor, and popularity.

So brutal are possessions, honor, and popularity. …”
