[1157] Then the Blessed One approached those bhikkhus, and having approached, he said this to them: "Why, bhikkhus, do you stand to one side stirred with a sense of urgency (saṃvigga), with your hair standing on end?" "It is wonderful, venerable sir! It is marvellous, venerable sir! There is no wind at all, and this Mansion of Migāra's Mother has a deep base, is well dug in, immovable, unshakeable — and yet it was shaken, thoroughly shaken, and made to tremble."
