Bunkachula came to the border of the forest to bid him farewell. Once he crossed the border the ascetic said to Bunkachula
Now we are free of the promises we made. You have served me
well for four months. I want to repay it by giving you four vows
of conduct. Would you e accept my advice?
He is a great and austere ascetic, I should
accept his advice. It would certainly benefit
me in some way.
