Visuddhimagga IX-68

So cittalapabbatavihāraṃ gacchanto dvedhā pathaṃ patvā ‘‘ayaṃ nu kho maggo udāhu aya’’nti cintayanto aṭṭhāsi. Athassa pabbate adhivatthā devatā hatthaṃ pasāretvā ‘‘esa maggo’’ti vatvā dasseti.

他去羯但罗山寺的时候，遇到歧路，正站着想道：「是这条路呢还是那条路？」住在该山的山神伸手指示说：「是这条路。」

Ñ(IX,68): On his way to Cittalapabbata he came to a road fork and stood wondering which turn to take. Then a deity living in a rock held out a hand pointing out the road to him.
