"A fly sat on a crumb of cow dung being carried away by the rainwater flowing down the street. The streamlet took it to the end of the village where a stupa stood. The streamlet took it to the end of the village where a stupa stood. The streamlet then went around the holy structure taking the fly on a circumambulation and finally joined into a nearby tributory. The fly was born into a human being in its next life, blessed with an opportunity to hear the words of the Buddha. Thus a scripture says."
