One night, the naga Queen Samutthasa saw a man with flaming eyes and a sword on his hand in her dream. The man pushed her down and cut her right arm. She woke up frightened, patted her arm and realized that she just dreamed. Then she thought that the nightmare would tell her about a happening danger to her four sons. Then she bethought of Phurithat who was observing precepts and meditating in the human world. He was in danger and might be harmful by a man or a garuda, so she felt sad and sorrowful.
