At Sāvatthī.

Standing to one side, that deity spoke this verse in the Buddha’s presence:

“Children bring you delight!
Cattle also bring you delight!

For attachments are a man’s delight;

without attachments there’s no delight.”

“Children bring you sorrow.
Cattle also bring you sorrow.

For attachments are a man’s sorrow;

without attachments there are no sorrows.”
