Then, having understood that "This is Mṅra the Evil One," she replied to him in verses: "Iâve gotten past the killing of sons, have made that the end to (my search for) men. I donât grieve, I donât weep— and Iâm not afraid of you, my friend. Itâs everywhere destroyed—delight. The mass of darkness is shattered. Having defeated the army of death, free of effluents I dwell." Then Mṅra the Evil One—sad & dejected at realizing, "Kisṅ Gotamī the nun knows me"—vanished right there.
