[57] Now on that occasion, at the storehouse of King Pasenadi of Kosala, ghee or oil — as much as was wanted — was given to an ascetic or a brahmin to drink, but not to carry away. Then it occurred to that wanderer (paribbājaka): "At the storehouse of King Pasenadi of Kosala, ghee or oil — as much as is wanted — is given to an ascetic or a brahmin to drink, but not to carry away. Suppose I were to go to the storehouse of King Pasenadi of Kosala, drink as much oil as I want, return home, and, having disgorged it, give that which will be for this one when she has given birth." Then that wanderer went to the storehouse of King Pasenadi of Kosala, drank as much oil as he wanted, and returned home; but he could neither bring it up nor pass it down. Stricken by painful, racking, bitter feelings (vedanā), he rolled back and forth and writhed about. Then the Blessed One, having dressed in the morning and taken his bowl and robe, entered Sāvatthī for alms. The Blessed One saw that wanderer, stricken by painful, racking, bitter feelings, rolling back and forth and writhing about.
Then the Blessed One, having understood this matter, on that occasion uttered this inspired utterance (udāna):
Happy indeed are those who have nothing (akiñcana);
for those attained to knowledge (vedagū) are people who have nothing.
See how one who has something is afflicted —
a person whose mind (citta) is bound to people.
