Madhurā Sutta
Suttaマドゥラー市の五つの欠点を列挙する経で、注釈書は仏陀がかつて裸の女の霊に出くわして入市を思いとどまったことを説明している
On the five disadvantages of Madhurā:
the ground is uneven,
there is much dust,
there are fierce dogs,
bestial yakkhas, and
alms are obtained with difficulty (A.iii.256).
The Commentary explains (AA.ii.646) that the Buddha, during a tour, once entered Madhurā, and was on his way to the inner city. However, a certain heretic yakkhiṇī stood before him naked, stretching out her arms, her tongue out. The Buddha thereupon turned back and went to the vihāra, where the people entertained him and the monks.
