The Story of the Buddha - Jātaka

PTS: Ja Vol. III 381-395

381. The Bird's Nest Migalopa

(Migalopa precursor)

The road is flying, baby ...,

The Master told this story while staying at Jianshe Park about a monk who disobeyed the Vinaya.

The Master asked the monk:

- Did you disobey the Law?

He replied:

- Yes, White World.

The master said,

- He did not disobey the First Law, but because of his turbulent nature did not listen to the advice of the ranks, he had to live and meet Verambla storm.

Then he told an old story.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, the Bodhisattva was born as the fourth vulture, Aparanna, living with the entourage of Mount Gijjhapabbata. Your son Migalopa strength extraordinary strength. It flies high above the level of other birds. They told the king that his son was flying so high. He called Migalopolis to say:

- Hey baby, they told me to fly so high. If that is the case, I would kill myself.

He recited three rhymes:

The way you fly, baby body,
I see them so
unsettled , Shuffle up too far,
Over the area we live safely.

When the land is just a square of square It shows
up in front of your eyes,
Then come back to me,
Do not daring soaring in mid air.

Birds will not fly at all,
They often met hurricane hurricanes,
As they are trying to rise forever,
Because they are arrogant lives.

Hate the wise advice
of the old man, meeting the Black Forest, the
name Ve-ram-bha Stampede,
spouse , inheritance must be desolate.

So those who do not care
Listen to the chief still recommends,
As birds fly arrogant,
Disobey the command, meet death.

*

When the Dharma talks ended, the Master identified the Forerunner:

At that time, Migālopa was the monk who disobeyed the Law and the Aparanna was me.

-ooOoo-

382. The Two Ladies Siri And Kaklatani

(Siri-Kakakani predecessor)

Who is this blue-black hypnosis ...,

The master told this story while staying in Kyiv for Anathapindika.

From the time he was accommodated in the Project, he practiced the Five Precepts fully. All his wives and children do the same.

One day in the Dharma Hall, the monks began discussing whether the chief priest and his family had kept the pure Dharma. The Master came in and was presented with the theme by the Congregation. He said,

- Monks, the old age also kept the whole family pure.

And he told an old story.

*

In the old days when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, the Bodhisattva was a merchant, almsgiver, morality and all descendants, servants in the house also do so. So he was called Suciparivàra (Purified Entrepreneur). He thought, "If there is any one who has a pure virtue than I come here, and I invite him to sit on my chair or lie in my bed, it is not appropriate, Nobody used ". So he ordered the servant to prepare a vase and a new vase to be placed on one side of his special hall.

At that time in heaven, there were two fairy goddesses: Kaklakanni, daughter of Virulakkha and Siri, daughter of Dhatarattha, and daughters of Dhatarattha. Flowers and spices go to Lake Anotatta to have fun there.

Now there are many baths at the lake. The Buddhas have their own bathing places, the Buddhas alone have their own places, the bhikkhus have their own place, the six-layered princes (including the Four Heavenly Kings residing on the first floor) have their own place and Heaven Women have their own place.

These two girls go there and start arguing who showered first. Kakakani said:

- I superseded mundane, I bathed before reasonable.

- I govern the path of conduct to the supreme status of humanity. I bathe in before reasonable. Siri replied.

Then they both said:

- Four Heavenly King will know between us who will have to bathe first.

So they went to ask the Uranus who among them deserves a bath at Anotatta Lake. Two Heavenly Kings Dhatarattha and Virupakkha replied:

- We can not decide.

And they shared it with Virulha and Vesavana. These two also said:

- We can not decide, we want to bring the story to the goddess.

Then they two talk to Sakka God. The god heard the story, thinking: "These two are daughters of my vassal Crown, I can not decide it," and told her:

"There was a merchant called Suciparivàra in Bala. There was a guard in the house and a new vet, who could have been sitting there before he was worth the bath. before.

Kakakanni immediately heard of wearing blue clothes, smeared with blue perfume and decorated with blue jewelry (blue represents bad luck). Then from Heaven, she descended on a jar by the goddess fire. After the middle of the night, she stood in the air, radiating a light of blue, not far from the trader lying on a statue in the castle's special lobby. The merchant looked up to see her, but for him, she did not seem benign, kind. He immediately rhymes to talk to her:

Who is this blue, black filtered,
Unlovable before your eyes,
Daughter of the house, she is,
How do I know, fairy?

Listen to this, Kaklakanni second riddle:

King
Celestial Adoption , Kali is Disorder, disaster,
Please give him a room
adjacent to him as a wish.

Then Bodhisattva answered the third verse:

What virtue do you still live?
Where does the human footsteps go?
This is the question asked her,
I want to focus on listening.

She recited the fourth verse, explaining her characteristics:

False, lunging, irritability,
Vong grace, jealousy, lunatic greed,
Evil people, we help success to
win them to destroy.

She also took the fifth, sixth and seventh verses:

Sufferings are even more intimate,
Fighting, defamation, and violence,
The ignorant who do not know the good people,
Hate advice, and good manners.

Those who act foolishly,
All things are boring,
Those who are with me are friends,
I seek pleasure in the other.

At that time, the echo of the eighth verse rebuked her:

Kali, let's walk right away,
There is nothing here,
Come to other cities, Get
out of this place.

Kakakanni heard this, sadly rhymes rhyme reply:

I still know you very well,
Nothing is fun here,
Evil creatures make many plans, our
brothers disappear right away.

When she was gone, Siri appeared, with her clothes, perfume, brilliant jewel in the front of the living room, radiating a bright yellow light, she stood on the ground with her two legs firmly. Sure and look respectful. Bodhisattva saw her immediately soaked two rhyme:

Who is this shining angel?
On the land of peace, the shape of the foot,
Who's daughter, she is,
How do I know, my princess?

Siri hears that second response:

Tri Kingdom King's father,

I am happy
, knowledgeable, worldly praise, please stay
the Hall with him wishes.

Then he asked:

What virtue do you still live?
Where does the human footsteps go?
This is the question asked her,
I want to focus on listening.

Siri responds:

Those who are hot, cold,
barrio , thieves, flies cause disease, poisoned beams,
the day and night is full,
I always love to live with the house.

Compassionate, straightforward,
calm,
faithful, sympathetic, full of patience,
We add all the blessings,
As waves spread on the sea,
A bright color. Positive yang.

With friends or close friends,
With people over, inferior, or equal,
Evil or even sheep,
Against the dark or in the midst of light,
The benevolent are not evil
.

But if fools are loved
again Arrogant arrogance with arrogance,
the pathetic stubborn retribution,
I stay away as a mud puddle.

Painting, separate each career happiness itself,
Nobody karma of others,
a person can not fatal,
Happiness for everyone in the physical plane.

That was Siri's answer when asked by the trader. Bodhisattva happy to her words, he said:

This is the pure net, worth it for her. Sit up there.

She stayed until the next morning to leave the heaven of the Four Heavenly Kings and bathed first at Lake Anotatta. Siri is named Sirisaya. That is the origin of the word Sirisayana, and for that reason, it is so called to this day.

*

When the Dharma talks ended, the Master identified the Forerunner:

- At that time, Siri Ladies was Uppalavannà and Suciparivira was Myself.

-ooOoo-

383. The Story of the King

(Predecessor of Kukkuta)

Birds with bright pink wings ...,

The Master told this story while staying at Jiao Xian for a secular dream,

The Master asked:

- Why do you dream of secular life?

Lord, because of greed, I saw a beautiful female jewelry.

- Monks, female and female, often cheat and flirt to harm those who have fallen into their power.

Then he told a story of the past.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, Bodhisattva was born as a live chicken in the forest with hundreds of other roosters. Not far from there is a female cat. It used many schemes to seduce many rooks to eat meat except the Bodhisattva, but the Bodhisatta did not fall into its power. The cat thought to himself, "This hen's chicken is so smart, but he knows it's fine and well-crafted, and if he lures me and says," I want to be his wife, "then It is good to eat meat when it falls into my hands. "

The cats come to the bottom of the tree where the hollow bean is hollowed and begs the hen with the tongue to chant the beauty of the hollowed-up cock,

Birds have pink wings glowing stars,
high winds down how
beautiful , I now wish to husband and wife,
Drop trees with the card here!

The Bodhisatta heard this thinking: "He has eaten all my relatives, and now he wants to flatter me to eat me all the time, I'm trying to get rid of him." So he recited the second verse:

She is charming, beautiful!
She has four legs, I'm only two,
Birds, animals never combined,
Look for another guy in two.

The cats thought, "This hen is very clever, and we must decide to use it in the next instance and eat it." So it makes the third verse:

I give him the beauty of youth,
gentle words softly,
loving wife or female,
depending on the husband treatment.

Then Bodhisatta thought, "It is best to defraud it and throw it away," he immediately recited the fourth verse:

The Cat's blood haul them Chicken,
Robbery brutal killings, your
wife? Do not cherish
in the heart of the Cat to praise me.

The female is taken away, so no longer dare to look at the chicken face anymore.

*

So when they see a hero, all the
girls are smart.
Try to find a way to attract.
(Look at Cats with Sultan).

Who does not face the danger? To
fall down at the feet.
Bend your face to the enemy,
In anger and sorrow.

At the time of
considering the situation of danger to his number,
As the hen away from the feline,
the other enemy, should avoid the branch.

These are the verses that arise from the Master's Wisdom.

*

When Dharma talks ended, the Master declared truth and identified Precursor. At the end of the Truths, the bent downyunior was resettled in the Precinct (Project). Then he identified the forerunner:

- He is, I was the empty chicken.

-ooOoo-

384. Dharma story

(Predecessor Dhammaddhaja)

Virtuous virtue, brother ...,

The master told this story while staying in Ky Vien about a brazen monk.

He said:

- Monks, this man is not just deceiving the first time.

Then he told an old story.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, Bodhisattva was born as a bird. As he grew up, he lived among his entourage on an island in the middle of the sea.

One day a group of traders brought a raven and departed to sea, to the middle of the sea, the ship sank. The crow flies to this island, thinking: "There are large flocks of birds, if we use cheat to deceive them and eat meat both eggs and young birds or how much." Then it flew down between the birds, the beak just one leg on the ground. Birds ask:

- Sir, who are you?

- I am a saint.

- Why are you standing only one leg?

- If I put my other foot down, the earth can not stand me.

- So why did you just stand and mine?

- I do not eat any food, just suck the wind.

Along with this, Scarecrow called the bird said again:

- I will preach to you, listen.

Then Qua rummaged rhyme to teach the teachings:

Practicing virtue, Dear Parents,
May your parents bless you!
I say again: practice virtue.
This life, the succession of peace.

Birds do not know that said so with plot to deceive them to eat bird eggs, praised the Scarecrow and soaked second verse:

This bird is very happy, blessed blessings, the
lecture just stand on one leg.

Birds full of trust this evil man, he said:

- Sir, you do not need any food, just suck in the wind, so please watch over this egg and our baby birds.

As such, they fly to their usual place of meal. When they were away, this poisonous Scarecrow was full of eggs and young birds. Then when the birds returned, it stood silent on one leg and loomed out.

Birds do not see the young birds flying back to the nest screamed:

- Who can eat them?

But they say the same:

- This is a Holy Grail!

They have no doubt Curse.

Then one day, the Bodhisatta thought silently, "There was nothing dangerous in the past, only since this monster came to be a disaster, so it is better to try it."

So he made it as if he waxed to eat with the other bird, and then he went back to a private place. The turtle believes the birds are flying upright, standing up to eat both eggs and young birds, and then stand on one leg, uncovered the same. When the birds return, the lord assembles them and says,

- Today we have observed the danger to our children and we see this evil man eat them, so we decided to catch it.

So he gathered the birds around the raven and said,

If it flies away, we must catch it.

Then he recited the next verses:

You do not know this bird
When you brood, foolish!
"Virtue" it, "virtue" forever,
And eat both eggs and the flock!

What it preaches, the voice bar,
Song they can not practice,
"virtue" it noisy empty,
its feet do not sincerely.

False in the heart, tongue twinkle,
It is cobbled cobbled crawling:
It's because of the jacket cheated the
People, because they are so foolish.

Take the beak, blast it, beat it,
tear it with this nail!
The despair is worthy, the despicable
despicable belief in righteousness.

With these words, it is the Princess that flew up to take the beak into the head of the Scarecrow and the birds also take the beak and foot to hit the Scarecrow to death.

*

When the Dharma talks ended, the Master identified the Forerunner:

- At that time, this monk was a bastard, and the bird was me.

-ooOoo-

385. The Story of Wang Yushan

(Nandiyamiga precursor)

Ba-la-subjects, he has to go home ...,

The Master tells this story in Ky Vien about a monk who serves his mother.

He asked the monk:

- Is it true that you serve the secular?

- Yes, White World

- Who are they?

- Lord, that is the parents.

Good-naturedly, this monk, he maintained the precepts of the old wise men, for they immediately sacrificed their lives for their parents.

And he told a story of the past.

*

In the old days, when the king of Kosala dominated the people of Saketa (ie Oudh), the Bodhisatta was born as a deer. When he was growing up, he was called Nandiyamiga (Hylou) with character and virtue of victory, he served himself.

The king of Kosala is interested in hunting, and goes out into the jungle with a large entourage daily, so the people are unable to cultivate their business and trade. They gathered to discuss:

"Hey, our king is destroying our profession, our family life is ruined, so we have to go to Anjanavana forest, make a big gate, dig a lake and Sow the grass grows, then go to the forest with sticks in hand, hit the bushes, thus chasing the deer out and take them to the farmer in the cows in the cage? Then we close the gate, show the king and go to work our work?

That's the way we do it. They tell each other.

And they agreed to prepare the rangers ready, then into the fence a wide, one-mile radius. At that time, Nandiya brought his parents into a small bush and lay down on the ground. The people held the carpets, arms surrounded the bushes close together, some people came in search. Nai Nandiya saw them thinking, "It is good that I will sacrifice my life today to save my parents." Thus, the deer stood up and greeted his parents and said,

- Parents, these people will see the three of us if they get in the dust, parents can only survive in one way, and their parents' lives are paramount: I will sacrifice my life. My parents, by standing on the bushes and running out as soon as they hit the dust, then they would think that there was only a small deer in this dust, and would not step inside. So parents try very carefully.

So he was allowed to stand up and ready to run.

As soon as the bushes were overwhelmed by the crowd and screaming, the deer ran out so they thought there was only one deer in it and did not step inside. Nandiya went with the deer, was rushed into the ranch, they closed the gate and submitted to the king finished, they returned home.

From there, whenever the king himself shot the deer, then the king brought the deer home, or sent him to find him.

The deer prepared to wait for their turn, who came to the side to stand aside, and they took it away when it was shot dead. Nandiya kept drinking in the lake and eating grass, but not yet. Many days later his parents wanted to see him. Thinking: "My son Nandiya is a king, as strong elephant and completely healthy, if alive, he will jump to see us." So they stood by the side of the road, saw a Brahmin, asked in human voice:

- Sir, where are you going?

- Go Skaketa. He replied.

Hearing this, the two want to text words for the child to pick up the rhyme:

Brahmin, he had in royal park,
when he went through the land of Oudh, the capital,
Please find Nan-di my beloved
And the message sent a few words true:
Through May aging parents exhausted and
heart Desire longing to wait for me.

Brahman said:

- Good.

And he accepted.

The next day he went to Sàketa, went to the garden and asked:

- Which Nai is Nandiya?

Nai Nai approached him and said:

- I am here.

The Brahmin said the message, Nandiya heard this reply:

- Brahmin, we can go. Surely we can jump fence fence. But we have enjoyed the king's food and drink, and it is like a debt to us. Also, we have lived with this deer for a long time, so it would be unreasonable if we left without benefiting the king and the deer, or showing no strength. So when we come to the session, we will benefit both people and things and return happily.

To explain this, he recited two verses:

I thank the king, eat well, not
go, wait for the benefit.

In front of the king, I will hold the ribs,
Then come to see my parents to justify.

The brahmin heard this word immediately left.

Then, on the turn of the goddess, the king and his entourage crowded into the royal garden. Bodhisattva stand aside. The king said:

- I will shoot the deer.

And the king put a pointed arrow in the bow. The Bodhisattva did not run away like the other deer when afraid of death, the heart of courage and loving compassion. He stood still showing his strong ribs.

Due to the motive of that citta, the king could not drop his arrow. Bodhisattva said:

- Dai Dai Vuong, why Dai King do not shoot? Please shoot.

- Hey King, I can not shoot.

- Say goodbye, then please look at the merits of the guardian of virtue.

Then the king joy with the words of the Bodhisattva, immediately drop down and say:

- This senseless wood does not know the virtues of the Nai, but I do not have the sense of understanding? Forgive me, this is for Nai Nai peace.

- Sir, you give us peace, but also the deer in this royal residence?

- I will give them peace again.

So after creating peace for all the deer in the forest, the birds in the sky and the fish in the water, as described in the Nigrodhamiga (No. 12), the Bodhisattva king resided in Ngũ Gender and security:

- Great king, good for a king who governs the nation by renouncing all evil, not breaking the ten factors of the king and doing the right thing:

Virtue, virtue, virtue,
righteousness, kindness, meekness, temperance, patience,
repentance, compassion, ten virtues

I see always firm in the heart.
From then on, a perfect word is born
and the body is peaceful.

With these words, he clarifies all the qualities of a gentle king through the form of a verse.

After a few days with the king, he ordered the transmission of a golden drum throughout the city, proclaiming peace to all species. Then he said:

- Please be careful of the room.

Then he went out to visit his parents.

*

Once upon a time, I was in the land of Oudh,
Tanh and the name of Hoan Hy, Nan-di

Wanted to kill me in the waterbender, one day
the king arrived, the name is on the rope.

I expose the flank in front of the king demanding a shot,
Then visit his parents to justify.

These are the verses that arise from the Wisdom of the Buddha.

*

When the Dharma talk is over, the Master declares the Truth. At the end of the Truths, the bhikkhu is residing in the preliminary stage. Then he identified the forerunner:

At that time, the father was a royal and queen in the royal family, the Brahmin is Sariputta, the king is Ananda and I am the Crown.

-ooOoo-

386. The Liar Story

(Kharaputta precursor)

The mind of the Goat is foolish ...,

The Master tells this story at Ky Vien about the exasperation of his ex-wife towards a monk.

When he admits that he is dreaming secular life, the teacher said:

"Monks, this woman is doing harm to you, and in the old days he jumped into the fire for him, and was saved by the wise men.

Then he told the story of the past.

*

In the old days, when the king dubbed Senaka reigning in Balaclava, Bodhisattva Sakka was the king, the Sekana king was associated with a king of Nága (Snake god).

Legend of the Snake King Nàga often left the world of Nàga go around in the land of prey. The boys saw each other say:

- This is a snake.

Then they took the soil to stone the snake. At times when the king is traveling in the royal audience see them and hear them are fighting a snake, he said:

- Do not let them snake, chase them away.

And this command is executed immediately.

So Naga was saved, when he returned to the world of Nàga, he took many treasures, and at midnight he went to the king's palace to give presents and said,

- Little God saved his life.

From then on, he fell in love with the king, so he went out to see him.

The serpent king Nàga commanded a mausoleum of Nàga, who had been immodestly desperate to come to the king's palace and protect him. The snake king gave him a spell and said,

- Whenever you do not see her, please read this goddess.

One day the king enters the royal palace with Nàga and plays on the lotus pond.

Nàga sees a water serpent, unmasked and falls in love with a water snake. King did not see the girl, he asked:

- Where are you going?

And the king read the mantra. At that moment, the king saw that her misconduct was to take her bamboo stick. She left angry at the world of Nàga and when asked:

- Why did she return?

- Your friend fell asleep on his back because I did not obey.

She replied and pointed wounds.

King Nàga did not know the truth, immediately called four young Nàga ordered them into the king of Senaka and use poison gas escape from the nostrils to kill the melting king as a hull. They entered the bedroom at bedtime. As they arrived, the king said to the queen,

- Hey, do you see the girl Nàga?

- Great King, I do not see.

Today we were bathing in the lake, she nailed the person and sex with a water snake. I say do not do that, then hit him with a bamboo stick to punish it, now I fear it was able to return to snake Nàga and lie to my friends, destroying his goodwill towards him. .

The young Nàga then returned to the serpent Nàga immediately and reported the snake king. He was immediately touched to the king told the story and the king to forgive. Then he said:

- Please make me atonement and compensation in this way.

Then gave the king a mantra to know everything sounds:

- This is a priceless mantra, if you give someone this mantra, he will immediately jump into the fire to die.

- precious instead. King met and received the mantra.

From then on, the king understood all the voices, even the sounds of ants. One day he was sitting on the couch eating hard stuffs with honey and molasses. Then a drop of honey, a drop of molasses and a piece of cake fell to the ground. An ants see so exclaimed:

- The king's honey was broken on the presbytery, the molasses and the car dumped. Hurry to eat honey, molasses and cakes, my dear.

The king heard that cry laughed loudly. Empress sat near to think "What God made you laugh so big?"

When the king had eaten the hard part of the food, he had bathed, sat down again, and a fly told his wife:

- Hey, ma'am, let's have sex together.

"My husband, please forgive me for this, and some time later, the spoon is bringing aromas to the king, while he rubs his body, some dust will fall on his feet, Then we will have sex together on his back. His wife replied.

The king heard the flies laugh again. She thought, "What did you see that made you laugh?"

Another time, while the king was having dinner, a rice fell to the ground, the ants shouting:

- A car was poured in the king's palace, but no one eats.

The king heard this laughing, the queen holding the golden spoon offering food to the king, thinking: "Is it because of me that God chuckle me?" She went to the harem with the king and at bedtime she asked:

- Dai Dai, why Dai Vuong laughed earlier this time?

- She related to how I laugh?

But keep listening to ask again, the king told her story. Then she said:

- Let the mantra understand that sound.

- It can not be. He replied.

But despite the repeated refusal, she urged the king. The king replied:

- If I give this mantra, I will die.

Even if the Great King died, also let him go to that mantra.

The king was urged by the woman, and accepted to say:

- Okay.

Then the king went up to the king, went into the royal palace and said:

- I will jump into the fire after this mantra.

At that moment, Sakka looked down at the land and saw this, he said:

"This divorced wife knows she is about to jump into the fire of a woman, who is leaving, so save her life.

So he brought Sujà, daughter of the king of Asura (A-tu-la), down to Balaa. He turned to goats, and Sujà turned into goats, then decided to avoid the people from seeing them, he stands right in front of the distant. The King and the Pharaohs saw him, and no one saw him. To start the story, he acted as if he was in love with a goat. A Sindh Phantom pulls the car:

- Hey, goat, we used to hear, but never before, that goats are stupid and shameless. Now you are doing it right before our eyes, the work to do in private, private and not ashamed of it. What we have heard before is in line with what we are seeing.

And so, the slurring soaked rhyme early:

The mind is so foolish,
The words of the truth itself,
Do not know how to show off
What to do secretly?

Go hear it, respond to two rhymes:

Hey, hey, think of that, and
then how stupid
he was , he was tied tied rope,
his jaw crossed, his eyes are not high.

When he was released, he did not run,
because he used to be so stupid,
King Se-nak he was carrying
.

The king heard the story between the two animals, immediately told the car to run fast. The scared goat talked to me and said:

Well, God, dare sir,
I'm great fool, you understand that too,
And the story of King Se-na foolish,
Please explain to me.

Goat rhymes the fifth verse explains this:

The king has a ghostly treasure,
Because the queen hurriedly hurriedly ,
Without the queen's advice, to
sacrifice his life.

The king listened to that, and said,

- Hey God, you will surely benefit me, so let me know what to do now?

Goat answered:

- Great King, for all beings, no one is more intimate than himself. Destroying yourself and sacrificing the honor you have created for a certain thing is not good at all.

Then go back to the sixth verse:

As you are in the rank of king.
Can bear many desires,
But must immediately abandon the desire,
If your body suffered casualties.

Life is
important. What is higher than yourself?
If our lives are fully maintained, we
do not need aspirations!

Bodhisattva advocates the king so. The happy king asked:

- Hey God, where did you come from?

"Great King, I am the Sakka God, to save him from dying because of his betrayal.

- God, I promised the queen of mantras. So what do I do now?

- There is no need to do any harm to them. Just tell him: "This is the way to spell," and then sent the person hit her a few whip, this way, she will not ask for it anymore.

- Very good! King said and agreed immediately.

After recommending the king finished, Bodhisattva return to heaven. And the king enthroned, the queen came and said:

- Empress, you want a spell?

- God, yes.

- Then follow this practice.

- What routine?

- One hundred whip on the back but not shouting.

The queen agreed because she was too enchanted with the mantra. The king told the ladies to grab whips on her side. She only tolerated two three whip and then shouted:

- I do not want mantra anymore!

- She was able to kill me just because of the spell. King said.

Then he rubbed the queen's belly and chased away. From then on she dared not talk about it anymore.

*

When the Dharma talk is over, the Master declares the Truth. At the end of the Truths, the bhikkhu is residing in the preliminary stage. Then he identified the forerunner:

- At that time, the king was the disgruntled bastard, the queen was his ex-wife, donkey is Sariputta and Sakka God is Ta.

387. The Story of Kim

(Predecessor of Death)

Fast, smooth, straight ...,

The master told this story while staying at Ky Vien on the achievement of victory.

The story will be told in the Mahaummagga, 546. The Master tells them to rise:

Now, monks, this is not the first time Tathagata has wisdom and many skilful means.

Then he told a story of the past.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, the Bodhisattva was born in Kàsi in the house of a blacksmith, and when he was growing up, he was very skilled in the craft. Your parents are very poor. Not far from this village is another village of a thousand houses. The union chief of the thousands of blacksmiths was the king of grace, rich in money and power. This daughter is extremely adventurous, just like a lady, full of all the good fortune of a lady's lady. Many people from the surrounding villages came for knife blades, axes hammers, plowshifts, and pointed rods ... to see her.

When they returned to the village, they praised her beauty in places where men had gathered and elsewhere. Just hearing about her, the Bodhisattva was fascinated and thought to herself: "I will marry her." So he chose the best iron, making a hard and strong needle that could pierce the dice and float on the water. Then he made a wrap around it with the iron and also pierced the die with the other needle.

In that way, he made seven needles, how he did them not to be disclosed, because that was accomplished through his great knowledge of the intellect. Then he put the needle in the tube and put the tube into a box, he went into the other village, asked the way to the chief blacksmith home. Then stood at the door of the house, he asked:

- Who wants to buy this special metal of my exchange for money?

And just standing next to the chief of the blacksmith's ward, he recited the rhyme of a needle depicting the needle:

Blend fast, smooth, straight right,
Smudge glossy blue powder,
sharp metal, bar,
Kim, who wants to buy his hand?

Then he again praised the needle again through the second verse:

Fast, strong, straight right,
Needle needle training beautiful round beautiful stars!
The iron will also penetrate,
Kim who wants to buy whoever you are!

At that time, the girl was fanning her father with a jagged fan while he lay on a bamboo mat for comfort after breakfast. When she heard the sweet voice of the Bodhisattva, she felt nauseous as if swallowing a piece of raw meat, and had to make the discomfort disappear with a thousand warm water, she said:

- Who can sell the needle with such sweet voice in a blacksmith village? Who comes here for what? We have to find out what the problem is.

So she placed the fan down and walked out, standing in the hallway. The purpose of the Bodhisattvas always achieved: it was because she she came to this village. She told him:

- Hey, the people in the country come to this village to buy needles and similar items. And you want to sell the needle in the blacksmith village is crazy! No matter how much you chant his kimono all day long, no one will buy from you. If you want to get the price, go to another village.

Then she drenched two rhymes:

The hook I have already sold,
Village in the village under who does not?
Blacksmith in this city,
Who sells needles anymore?

Well-known blacksmiths for us,
Jobs who is the instrument that matches?
Blacksmith in the village,
Who also sells needles to bring you?

Bodhisattva listening to her words, replied in a hurry:

"Lady, you say that is because you do not know anything.

Then he soaked two rhymes:

Blacksmith're in the city,
but new talent or sell their needles!
Foreman ready in hand, first
item bought immediately lurking!

Once you know it,
this needle is made by me, and
he will
certainly give you the inheritance for me!

The head of the wards hears the whole story and calls his daughter to ask:

- Are you talking to someone?

- Father, a needle boy.

- So call him in here.

She called him in. Bodhisattva greeted the head of the wards, finished standing. Air pipe:

- What village are you in?

"Sir, I am in the village, the son of the blacksmith family.

- Why are you here?

- Dear, to sell needles.

- Now, give me a try on your needle.

Bodhisattva wishes to publish all his characteristics among many people, said immediately:

- A thing that many people look at is not better than just one viewer?

- Hey, right, right.

So the chief warden gathered all the blacksmiths and stood in the middle of the crowd, he said:

- Come on, get the needle out.

"Sir, please protect an anvil and a copper dish filled with water.

It's done right away. Bodhisattva took the needle out of the box to show the other group. The chief of the wardship asked:

- This is the needle?

- No, it's not a needle, but a bag.

The chief of the ward also closely observed no head at all. Bodhisattva get back, use the nail to withdraw the bag and show people:

- This is a needle, this is a bag.

He placed the needle in his hands and the bag under his feet. He said:

- I'm sure this is a needle.

He replied:

- This is just a needle.

Then he took his hand out to knock it out and so he put six consecutive bags under the head of the ward and said:

- This is a needle, and put the needle in the other hand.

Thousands of blacksmiths flicked their fingers pleasantly and began to wave their scarves. Then the ward chief asked:

- Hey, how is this needle in strength?

"Sir, tell a muscular man to lift this anvil and place the basin under the anvil. Then straighten the needle into the anvil.

He said yes and stabbed the tip of the needle into the anvil. The needle perforates the anvil and sits across the water without raising or lowering it even with a single strand of hair.

All blacksmiths said:

- We have never heard even rumors of such talented blacksmiths.

So they snapped their fingers and waved thousands of towels. The ward chief called his daughter in, and stood in the crowd he said:

- This is the girl that matches you.

He poured water on their hands and handed her to him to take away. Later, when the head of the ward died, Bodhisatta became the head of the wards in the village.

When the Dharma talks are over, the Master speaks truths and identifies Precursors:

- At that time, the daughter of the head of the wards was the mother of Rahula, and the smart blacksmith was Ta.

-ooOoo-

388. The Story of Long Mutton

(Tundra precursor)

I worry about today ...,

The Master told this story while staying at Ky Vien about a bastard who was afraid of death.

He was a son-in-law in Sàvatthi and was ordained in Dharma, but he was afraid of dying and even heard a shrill bush, the sound of falling branches or the sound of birds, Also panic for fear of death and run away, trembling whole body like rabbit injured in the abdomen. Boosting them in the right way begins discussing, saying:

- Hey, the Sage, the bastard is afraid of death, shivering to run away when listening to a small noise. Now for every species in the world, death is of course, life is not sustainable, this is not wise to remember in mind or not?

The master came to see that this was your subject, and the bhikkhu recognized himself or feared death, saying,

"Monks, this is not the first time he is afraid of death.

And he told a story of the past.

*

In the old days, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, Bodhisattva got a boar. When it comes time, pigs give birth to two male pigs. One day the mother pig brought two children into the hole. An old lady in the village at Balaclava Gate went home with a basket full of cotton buds in the field and knocked the cane to the ground crying toad.

Pig heard the sound, fear of death immediately left two runaway. The old lady saw the two piglets feeling as if they were giving birth, putting them in a basket and taking them home. She then named the big pig Mahaitundila and the small Cullatundila, and raised them as offspring.

Over time, they grow bigger and thicker. When the old woman was asked to sell pigs for money, she replied:

- They are my children.

And she did not want to sell.

On a festival day, there were men who were drunk with heavy wine, and when the meat was gone, they looked for where meat could be bought. When they see pigs in the old lady's house, they bring money to say:

- Mom, take this and give us a pig.

"Well then, you guys, who wants to sell his son to eat meat? She responds and denies them.

- Mommy, how can a pig be a human being? Please let us go.

They say but not buy pigs, even ask again and again.

Then they gave the old woman a strong drink, until she was drunk, and they said,

- Mother, what are you going to do with this pig? Take money to spend it.

They put the money in the old lady's hand. She accepted the money and said:

- I can not give you big pigs, just catch little pigs.

- Where is it?

- It is in the bush.

Call it.

- I have no food to call it.

They immediately asked to buy a rice cooker immediately. The old woman held the rice pan, filled the gutter next to the big door and stood by waiting. Thirty people stood nearby with noose in hand. Old woman called:

- Come here, little piggy, come here.

The big pig heard this, thinking, "For a long time, you never called a little pig like that, you always call me before. Surely there is something dangerous happening to us today." The big pig told me:

- Hey, I'm calling you, look out.

Little pigs come out, see the crowd standing next to the trough, thinking: "Today I must die." Then, fearing death, he shivered back to him, and when he returned to his old place, he could not restrain himself, so he kept trembling. The big pig saw this:

- Hey, today I shuddered staring at the gate. Why do you do that?

Little pigs rummaging through the rhyme explain what it has seen:

I worry about today, my
mother standing by the trough full of food,
who hold the noose standing near,
to eat sure to harm your body.

The Bodhisattva heard something said:

- Hey little pig, the purpose of raising pigs has long been accomplished, do not be sad anymore.

Then, with the sweet voice and serenity of a Buddha, he preached the dharma through two verses:

Fear, pray for help, trembling,
No one to help you get away?
Eat, baby pigs do not sorrow,
mother fed us fat because of pork demand!

Pond in the pond, clear
sweat , much sweat, wash away!
Then you will see miraculous,
Jasmine fragrance does not change.

While he examined the Complete Record, he placed the Prophet Muhammad in front of his face as a guide and soaked his first two verses, his voice spreading throughout Ba'al Two miles. As soon as he heard that voice, all the people of Balaclava from the monarchy, the monarch went down here, with those who did not come to listen in their house.

The king's soldiers cut down all bushes, leveled the ground and sanded. Crude people have drunk drunk, throwing the noose and listening to the French, the old woman also awake wine. Bodhisattva began to lecture the French pigs among the masses.

But he never told me to jump into a pond, and then by washing his sweat to clean my body and after cleaning the old crust, Then add the new perfume: Why is he telling me this? So little baby poop picking the fourth verse:

What is crystal pond, What
defecation talk about?
What is magic oil?
Smell scent as ever?

The Bodhisattva heard this immediately said:

- Listen.

And he recited the teachings of the Dharma in the calm form of a Buddha:

France is a pond in the water,
Sweat defilements delusion delusion, Fragrance
oil virtue, the
fragrance forever never fade.

The person who does not live is happy,
he is still alive because of worries.
Man must die, do not be sad,
Have fun like a full moon all year round.

Thus, the Great Deity preached the Dharma in a sweet voice with the miracles of a Buddha. Thousands of thousands of people flicked their fingers, waved their hoarse applause, and the atmosphere began to ring.

- Good, good!

The king of Balaclava honors the Bodhisatta to the throne, and makes the glorious old woman by infusing the two Pigs with perfumed water, dressing up, putting on gold jewels and giving her status. The princes in the city. So the king protected the two Pigs with a large army of escorts.

The Bodhisatta taught the Five Precepts to the king, and all the people of Balah and Kaisi kept the Five Precepts. The Bodhisattva teaches the Dharma to the people on the male days (eighth and full episodes) and sit the trial. During the time in the world, no one was sentenced to unjust sentence. Then the king died, the Bodhisattva celebration of the king's funeral, then he wrote a book to write all the ruling and said:

- You have to follow this book for a trial.

After lecturing the public with enthusiasm, he and the little boy walked into the forest as the masses cried out. The teachings of the Bodhisattva handed down throughout sixty thousand years later.

*

When the Dharma talk is over, the Master declares the Truth. At the end of the Truth, the Beloved Fear of Death has been settled in the Precincts (Project). Then he identified the forerunner:

- At that time, the king was Ānanda, Cullatundila is bhikkhu fear of death, mass is the Church and I is Mahātundila.

-ooOoo-

389. The Story of the Golden Crab

(Precursor Suvannakakkata)

A yellow jumper with protruding eyes ...,

The Master told this story while staying in Trúc Lâm about the fact that he was sacrificing his life for him.

This situation was told in the Khandahàla Precursor about hiring gunners and in the Cullahamsa Precursor, No. 533 of the Dhanapala elephant. As they rise, they begin the discussion in the Dharma Path:

"Do not you," said Elder Ananda, the Chief of the Dhamma Store, who had acquired the wisdom of a learned friend, sacrificed his life for the sake of the Buddha when the Dhanapala elephant came in?

The Master entered and was told the subject of discussion, he said:

- Monks, in the past Ñnanda also sacrificed his life for me.

Then he told a story of the past.

*

In the past, there was a Brahmin village called Sindhiya in the east of Rajagaha. Bodhisattva was born in that village in a Brahmaput family farm. As he grew up he settled down and cultivated about a thousand harisa (about 8,000 acres) in a Magadha district in the northeast of the village.

One day he and his family went out and told them to finish plowing, he went to a pond at the end of the field to wash his face. In the pond there is a yellow, beautiful, pleasant crab.

Bodhisattva step down pond after floss. As he rinsed his mouth, the Crab approached him, picked up the Crab and placed it in his jacket. After farming, he put the Crab into the pond and went home. From then on, every time he came to the field, he usually came to the pond first, put the Crab on his coat and go to work. So a warm, trusting feeling arises between man and things. On the day Bodhisattva still go to work regularly.

Then in his eyes there are five beauties and three clear circles. A scorpion on the pitcher in the corner of the field saw his eyes, wanted to eat them, told the Drake:

- Hey man, I have a wish.

- What do you wish?

- I wish to eat the eyes of a Brahmin.

- Your treat is not very nice. Who can get those eyes for her?

- I know he can not get it, but at the ants nests near this tree there is a black tiger snake, he comes to minister to it, then it will bite the brahmin to kill him, then he operated eye surgery Come out and bring it to you.

The males agree, then it comes to serving the Tiger Snake. The crab also grows larger in time when the seeds sown by the Bodhisattva have sprouted.

One day the snake said:

- Hey, you always serve me, so what can I do for you?

- Sir, his maid has brought the desire to have the eyes of the owner of this field. I came to minister to him only hope thanks to his gratitude for the eyes.

Snake said:

- Well, it's not that hard, you have to get those eyes.

The Snake also encouraged the Scarecrow.

The next day, the serpent was waiting for the brahmin to come, he hid himself under the grass, by the edge of the field he was about to come to. Bodhisattva down the pond to wash his mouth, feel the cord with the crab, should embrace it put on the outer vest.

The serpent saw him coming immediately to bite his thighs, causing him to fall on the spot, then he hid in the ants' nest. The bodhisattva event falls on it, the yellow crab jumps out of the robe and the rooster flies down on the bodhisattva's chest in succession.

The rooster just finished, took the mine to capture the eyes of the Bodhisattva. Crab thought: "It is because of this Scarecrow that the danger has happened to my friend. If I grab it, the Snake will crawl." So the crab clamped in the neck of the Quarry with the clutch as tight as the grip, making it tired to loosen a bit. The Donkey:

- Hey, why did you leave me running away? This crab destroys me. Come right before I die.

Then Qua dangled rhyme head:

A golden eye with a convex eye,
In the lake, naked, covered with bones,
Shoot me, hear my screams
Why leave my dear friend?

The Snake hears, extends the cow to comfort her.

*

The master of the second verse comes from his Virtuous Wisdom, explaining this:

The Snake suddenly crashes into the Crab,
It does not want to leave you now:
snake with a large crest at work,
Crab attack immediately Snake crawling.

*

Crab fatigued loosening a little, the snake thought: "The crab does not eat crow or snake, so why this crab shooting us?" Then he asked rhymes Crab:

Not for the sake of finding the bait
that Crab snatches, Scorpions in the sky, Shining
eyes tell me
why are you pinching us?

Hearing this, crabs drenched two rhymes to explain why:

He brought me under the pond,
Expressed kindness, love me,
If you die, our time here suffering,
He and me, only one.

Seeing that we have grown up now,
Everyone is looking forward to killing enjoy:
Crab sweet fat fat delicious,
Looking at me, Quán want to tear the body.

Hearing Snake thinking: "I have to trick it, then I and Scarecrow escape." So it's the sixth verse to fool Crab:

If Crab sandwiched Snake, because of him,
I will withdraw that poison,
he woke up, fast Snake, rage, To
penetrate the poison, to destroy life.

Hearing this, Crab thought, "This serpent wants to make me drop both by trick and run away, it does not know my clever talent. Move, but I do not let go of the crow. " Then he sat down the seventh verse:

I release Snakes, do not drop here,
I believe that Guards forced this place,
I do not release it to another place,
until peace with him.

Saying Crab loosens up so that the snake crawls freely. The snake collects venom and bodhisattva body escapes snake venom. He stood firmly in the natural shade.

The Crab thinks, "If these two animals are peaceful, surely my friends will not be prosperous. I want to kill them all," and then rubbed their heads to death.

The roof go away flight away from it. Bodhisattva sticks sticks through me Snakes thrown into the dust, so that crabs crawl into the pond and bath and wash back to Salindiya. From then on, the friendship between them became even more intimate between him and the Crab.

*

When the Dharma talk is over, the Master speaks truths and identifies Precursors through the final verses:

Cobra is the Devil,
offer-she-reaching, that other black Crow,
Ananda is its virtue,
Fill all the Ta La-disciplines.

When the Truths are over, many have attained first fruits (Projections) and others. The Prodigal is the Prophet, though this is not mentioned in the final verse.

-ooOoo-

390. The Birds of Mayhaka

(Mayhaka precursor)

If happy when looking forward to giving ...,

The master told this story while staying in Kyiv, about a strange businessman.

At Xa-defend, there is an incredible businessman, rich in money and powerful. But he did not enjoy wealth nor anyone else. If the delicacies are served up, he also does not want to eat but just eat rice bran with sour sauce. If silk garments are to be brought, he will take them away and only wear coarse wool cloth to filter the sugar. If the horse carriage is decorated with gold jewelery as the purebred horse pulls him to the invitation, he will take it away and only ride the rickety old car with the parachute leaf cover. All his life he did not do any good or merit, so he was reborn in prison Roruva. His inheritance is not heir, the king's immediate thrust into the palace seven days and nights. When the goods were loaded, the king went to Ky Vien after breakfast and worshiped the Teacher. When asked why not to meet the Buddha regularly, the king replied:

Lord Exalted, a strange trader has just died in the Sage. For seven days, the property was transported to the royal palace without a heir. Despite the wealth so much, before he did not enjoy the rich also did not give anyone. The property is like a lotus lake guarded evil. One day he rolled to death after refusing to enjoy the delicacy of a lifetime. Why is such a selfish and reprehensible man made so much of a fortune and for whatever reason he never thought of getting rich?

That is the question that the king raised with the Master.

- Sir, the reason why he created the property, though not enjoy it, is here.

Then at the request of the king, the Master tells a story of the past.

*

In the old days, when Brahmadatta reigned in Bala, there was a selfish, unprofessional businessman in the capital. He did not give anything or give anything to anyone. One day, he went to see the Pacceka Buddha named Tagarasikhi begging, immediately bowed and asked:

- Sir, have you alms?

- Hey traders, I have not begged. The Buddha alone answers.

The trader ordered his family members:

- Hey, take him to my house, invite me to my coordinates and offer a bowl full of food for me.

The servant took him home, sat down, and reported his wife. She offered him a bowl of delicious rice. He took food away from the house and left.

The merchant from the court returned home, met him again and asked if he had received food.

- Hey businessman, I got it.

The trader looked at the bowl and could not agree, thinking: "If my serfs eat this bowl of rice, they will make me know how much hard work, oh! for us!" And he can not make the thought of giving full blessing. So generosity offers only fruitful results to those who know how to make the thought after the gift is full of joy.

If happy when looking for
generosity Take the alms, joy,
Do not regret that when we live in life,
the children never die.
Before giving, the joy of the mood,
From then on the joyful thought,
The other blessings bring blessed integrity.

Thus, this bizarre merchant was given many possessions by offering the Tagarasikhi Tagarana Buddha, but he could not enjoy wealth because he did not make pure thought after giving alms.

- Well, why does he have no children?

The master replied:

- Sir, this is the reason he has no children.

And at the request of the king, he told a story of the past.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, Bodhisattva was born into a rich merchant family to eight hundred million. As adults, parents passed away, he provided the property for his brother and ran the household. He set up a road at the gate of the house and as a homeowner dedicated gift. When he learned toddler, he realized the suffering of the desire and merit of his mother's life, and handed over all the property to his wife and children for his brother, encouraging him to continue to give birth. Then he becomes ascetic, attains the Witnesses and meditators and lives in the Snow Mountain area.

His brother adopted the only grandchildren, but he found it wise, he thought: "If his son lives, property will be split two, I want to kill his son." So one day, he drowned me in the river to die. After the bath was finished home, the bride asked:

- Where is my son?

- It's playing in the river. I look forever but can not see it anywhere.

My sister just cried but did not say anything. The Bodhisattva knows this thinking: "I will publish this story." Then traveling through space, lowering the city of Ba-la complaining in the upper and lower doctor, he stands right at the door, do not see the road, he thought: "The wicked destroy the Bell Street".

The person he heard about him, came out to bow to the Bodhisattva and invited him to the top of the dinner party. When the rice is finished, sit talking intimately, he asked:

- My son does not come, where is it?

- Sir, it's dead.

- How?

- At a wharf, but little did not know how.

- Do not know? That wicked man, your actions are well known: did not you kill him that way? Can you save enough fortune when the king, the pirate or many others to destroy? So what's the difference between you and the Mayha bird?

Thus, the Bodhisattva recited this verse to the Dharma with the calmness of a Buddha:

There is a bird called May-ha,
It lives in a cave in the distant mountain,
Ripe fruit on the ancient fig tree,
"Mine, me too", it cried.

Collect the birds when it chime,
gather around a herd,
eat fruit satisfied though,
May-ha still crying.

Also, the other silver and gold,
but not sharing between the body,
nor the time to enjoy the
clothes and always the food,

Flavors with brilliant flowers,
nor grace with relatives.
"My life, my forever," groaning,
It holds the treasure of greed.

King of the time, children
Only hope that it soon died,
robbed it, while the
dull wailing complain of lament.

So the Great Master lectured the Dharma to make his brother continue to practice alms, and then he returned to Tuyet Son to practice meditation without ceasing and to give birth to the Brahma.

*

When the Dharma talks ended, the Master said,

- Thus, Sir, the bizarre trader does not have any sons or daughters because he killed his brother's son.

Then he identified the forerunner:

- The younger brother is a trader and his brother is Ta.

-ooOoo-

391. The Story of the Master

(Predecessor Dhajavihetha)

Look high bar, bowed again ...,

The teacher told this story while staying at the Park about his departure for the benefit of the students.

The situation of the story will appear in the Mahàkanha, 469. At that time, the Master said,

"Monks, this is not the first time Tathagata is ordained for the benefit of the whole world.

And he told a story of the past.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, the Bodhisattva was born Sakka God. At that time there was an evil magician who used the midnight force to violate the virtue of the royal palace at Balaclava. Her maidens knew this. The queen herself came to see the king and presented:

- God, there are strangers intruding the palace and hurt the card.

- Could the queen make a mark on him?

- Yes, I can.

So she asked for a red lipstick, when he arrived at midnight and left after the festival, the queen printed five finger marks on her back and the next morning to the king. He ordered the bodyguard to look around and bring back the red lip on his back.

Then, after committing a misunderstanding at night, I was in the middle of the day in the graveyard worshiping the sun, the king saw, besieged him, but he thought his actions were revealed to everyone. , Then use the art of flying up. The king asked the guards after witnessing the return:

- You see y?

"God, we see.

- Who is Y?

- God, a Taoist.

After committing suicide at night, he pretends to be a daytime Taoist. The king thought to himself, "These men go about day and night in ascetic wives, but at night they commit adultery."

So the king stabbed indignation with the Taoists and clinging to the wrong view to proclaim the entire city in the drum that every Taoist had to leave the kingdom and be punished by soldiers for being caught in any oil.

Every ascetic fleees from the kingdom of Kaisi three hundred miles away and resides in other cities. So there is no Sa-or Ba-la-right subjects that preach the Dhamma to the people of Kàsi, and because they do not hear the Dharma, they become cruel, hate generosity and morality, To fall into the common and unborn.

Sakka God does not see any new gods appear, then consider what the reason and see is because of the expulsion of the Sa-band, Brahman out of the kingdom by the King Balaclava clinging. Wrong view while angry dogma. Then he thought: "Unless one can destroy this king's wrong view, I want to save the king and his people."

So he went to see the Buddhahood in the Nandāla cave and said:

Let's say, the monks, give us a Buddhist monk Elder, I want to go to the religion of the Kàsi religion.

He invited an elder of them to leave. When he had held his bowl, Sakka invited him to go first, followed by the reverence of the Buddhist monk, he transformed himself into a beautiful young monk three rounds Around the city from beginning to end, and then in front of the royal palace, he stood in the air. The army came to the king:

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

The king from the office went out and stood on the upper floor and asked:

- The young Taoist, why is he so handsome reverently holding the bowl for a Satanism?

Then the king recited the rhyme to talk to him:

High profile, bowed,
after the prime minister, step by step,
this person more, less, or equal,
Please say my name, I petition.

God replied:

- The great emperor, Sa-subjects in the position of the Master, so if we name his identity is broken, but I will tell the Great Prince knows my name.

Then he recited the second verse:

Devas do not say the same name
The perfect man, the sage,
The only part of our title
Sak-ka God of the gods.

The king heard this, and immediately asked the third verse to ask what blessings in the cult of the Master:

Honest man full of holiness
After you, to move earnestly,
What part to inherit, the God of
grace , blessings of the next life will rash?

God responds to the fourth verse:

After the gentleman , after the gentleman, take step by step,
earnestly inherited the present,
inherited the world after the network.

The king hears the Master withdraw from all wrong view and enjoy the fifth verse:

The sun of fate prevails today, The
eyes of the goddess show the
Noble One who came to the world, This is the Thich,
I have done good from this day.

Sakka the Emperor hears the emperor praise his monk, immediately recited the sixth verse:

Righteous devotion to the saint,
mind towards high mind,
Now longan eyes met
Sakka-sama with the saint,
Wish from now many blessings
Will be part of the army.

Listen this, the king recited the last rhyme:

Thought full blessing brings grace,
from now womb station yard glasses,
ear foreigners visiting the bridge,
station chief received advice feet,
hundred hearts would melt away conceit,
Phung Thien host church, evening worship.

After he finished speaking, the king came down from the upper floor, bowed to the Buddhist monk and stood on one side. The Buddhist monk sat cross-legged in the air and said:

- Grandpa, the evil one is not a Taoist. From this must perceive people are not all false, there are Brahmin Sa-subjects are good, so be generous, adhere to the rules and fortification day boys (bast-slapped).

He preached the dharma to the king, and Sakka the god also used levitation force to preach the Dharma to the masses:

- From now on, be zealous.

He commanded the drums to command the whole city for the monks, and Brahmins had fled repatriation. Then they both return to their realm. The king followed the advice and practiced the blessings.

*

When the Dharma talks are over, the Master speaks truths and identifies Precursors:

- At that time, the Buddhist monk Nirvana, King is Ananda and I is the Sakka God.

-ooOoo-

392. The Story of Bulbs and Lotus

(Bhisapuppha precursor)

He was not allowed to smell flowers ...,

The Master tells this story while staying at Jianshe on a parachute.

It is said that the bhikkhu left the park and stayed in the Kosala state near a forest. One day he went down to the lotus pond, when he saw a lotus, he stood away from the wind and smelled the lotus smell. The goddess in that forest threatened him:

"This is a form of theft," he murmured.

He panicked back to Kyien, went to greet the Master and sat down.

- Bhikkhu, where have you been?

"The Blessed One, in the forest, and the goddess threatens me so.

Master said:

- He was not the first person threatened by Goddess when smelling flowers. The ancient rulers were once so threatened.

And at the request of the bhikkhu, he tells a story of the past.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, Bodhisattva was born into a Brahmin family in Kàsi. As he grew up, he studied art at Takkasil University and later became ascetic living near a lotus pond. One day he came down to the pond and stood and smelled a blossoming flower, a goddess in a nearby tree cavity dabbed at his head:

He was not allowed to smell the flowers,
Even if only one new flower hatched,
That is the form of pirates,
Sa-subject, he steals smelling flowers.

Bodhisattva immediately pick up the second riddle:

I do not pick, do not break flowers,
smell smells far far away,
I can not
say the reason she said I was sniffing flowers.

At the same time, there was a man digging his lotus and lotus buds, breaking his lotus trunk. Bodhisattva saw, then said:

She called a person to smell the scent from the distance is to steal. Why do not you say that to the other?

So he recited the third verse to say this:

They are digging the lotus root,
Breaking the trunk, That look,
Why do not you tell the way
he is indiscriminate, lowly?

The goddess immediately recited the fifth and sixth verses explaining why she did not tell the other:

Those who are liberated are slack,
Like a tuxedo, are boring,
I do not say anything to him,
But I favor him.

When the desires of the world,
and seek to purify the body of mind,
Sin is just as small as the head Hair is
no difference in the sky!

Listen to Goddess warned so, the Bodhisattva touched sixth verse rhyme:

Evidently, the goddess knows the wall,
so with me, she has loved,
If I saw the recidivism again,
Please say her again, implore her.

Then, the goddess rhyme seventh verse shelves:

I do not live here to serve you,
We are not hired for anybody,
Please find your way to
the highest Happiness in the world.

His motivation was so complete, the goddess returned to her residence. The Bodhisattva of incessant enthusiasm for later reincarnation into the Brahmanical realms.

Dhamma terminates, the Master speaks the truth. At the end of the Truths, the monk was residing in the preliminary stage. Then he identified the forerunner:

- At that time, the goddess is Uppalavannà and the ascetic is Me.

-ooOoo-

393. The Story of Real Food

(Vighasa precursor)

Who is the happiness of life ...,

The Master tells this story while he is staying in the City of Bench regarding a number of Pleasure Shocks.

Elder Mahamoggallana has shaken their home and warned them. Rising they began to discuss this mistake at the Chief Dharma. The teacher told the incident, he said:

- This is not the first time they like pleasure.

And he told a story of the past.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahmadatta reigned in Balaclava, the Bodhisattva Sakka is the God. There were seven brothers in a village in Kaisi who found the evil of greed, left the secular and became a hermit. They live in Mejjhàrannã, but still enjoy the pleasures, not practice the practice and only follow the habits of material.

Thien Sakka said,

- I want to warn us.

So he transformed himself into a British bird into their home, just parked on the tree and rummaged the rhyme and warned them:

Happiness is who lives in the middle of life
With the remnant of alms, only
the world's praise, the
fate of the next life: heavenly heaven.

At that time, one of them heard the birds of the English bird, called the other crowd and took a second rumble:

A wise mind should give ear
When I dance like human voice,
Listen, friends, birds praise
We are here, great clarity!

English dancers to pick up the third verse denied this:

I do not praise the teachers,
eat corpses, listen to this:
The teacher eat the waste,
not the remnants of this gift .

When they hear the birds say, they sing along to the rhyme:

Made seven years, shaved black hair,
where we live for months on a day,
eat the food is dead , why do birds reprimand,
so who is so praiseworthy?

The fifth ruler recited the fifth verse to rebuke them for repentance:

Assets, tigers, predators,
are your
necessities, indeed they are waste
Although people call "just remnants only".

Hearing this, the hermits again asked:

- If we are not living with the dead, please tell us who they are?

He sat down to the seventh verse to clarify the true meaning of this:

Those who give alms to the Sa-subject,
To meet everything needed,
Then take what is left,
Living thanks to the dead .

Thus, the Bodhisatta made them repent and returned to his realm.

*

When the Dharma talks are over, the Master speaks truths and identifies Precursors:

- At that time, these seven hermits were bhikkhus who enjoyed this pleasure and Sakka the Divine Master was Me.

-ooOoo-

394. The Story of Chim

(Vattaka precursor)

Butter, full of sorghum ...,

The master told this story while staying at Ky Vien about a greedy monk.

When he saw his greed, the Master said:

This was not the first time he was greedy; once he was greedy, he was not satisfied with elephants, horses and hoped for more delicious food.

That said, he told a story of the past.

*

In the old days, when King Brahmadatta reigned Balar, the Bodhisattva was born as a goat living in the forest with dry grass and seeds. At that time in Palawan, there was a hungry corpse, not satisfied with the corpses of elephants, horses and other animals, and entered the forest hoping to find more of the strange things. While eating the fruit, he suddenly realized that Bodhisatta thought to himself, "This cuttlefish is very fat, I guess it's delicious, I want to ask about it and eat it to make me fat too."

The beanstalk on the bushes was higher than the Bodhisatta, although he did not ask, the Bodhisattva greeted him and dabbed his head:

Butter, full of sorghum,
Daddy, delicious food,
tell me the source of the storm
Why do you have to be worn out?

Hear this word, Quả dip three rhymes in response:

I am living in the midst of the enemy,
My heart must be tired,
Fear of seeking business,
Want to become fat, Oh, how?

During the life of the Scarecrow anxiety,
Tri always wary, face danger,
The prey is not enough to eat,
Cút ơi, so worn out body.

Grass is dry, nuts are the
food of the mouth is not fat,
Why duck fat, then
eat a little, say, you gold!

Bodhisattva listening, soaked the rhyme explain why his fat:

I'm just happy enough,
Thong flies a short distance,
Earn anything to eat,
So fat fat, Dagger!

Full of happiness, joyful,
In the heart of know enough, leisure months,
Easy goal to achieve,
This is the victory over this we follow.

Dhamma terminates, the Master speaks the truth. At the end of the Truths, the monk was residing in the preliminary stage. Then he identified the forerunner:

- At that time, this monkey was a greedy bitch, and the Elk was Me.

-ooOoo-

395. The Story of the Raven

(Precursor Kàka)

Old friend, look ...,

The master told this story while staying at Ky Vien about a greedy monk. This situation is the same as above.

*

In ancient times, when King Brahamadatta reigned in Balaclava, the Bodhisattva was a dove living in a basket in the kitchen of a businessman Ba-la complain. A Scarecrow comes to the dove and lives there. Here the story needs to be presented in full detail. The chef picked up all the feathers, scattered the powder and broke a shiny snail shell on his neck and threw it into the basket.

Bodhisattva fly from the forest, see that, and soak the head to tease.

Old friend, look,
Bright glowing jewelery,
beard trimmed dreadful,
It looks so fresh in front of your eyes!

Qua listen to this, immediately respond to second verse:

The hairs and nails are fast growing,
And we are all over us,
The barber finally steps in,
So we shed the rough shells!

Then Bodhisattva drenched the third verse:

Of course, Scarecrow is black,
the shaver is smart!
What's around the neck, please say,
What's the name of the bell?

Next, two more rhymes:

Elegant people still wear
nostalgic Necklace, life in the world,
Want to imitate people, so
do you, do not think that joke playing!

And if you're jealous of a mustache
Brush your groom's teeth,
I'll ask for this shave help,
And then wear gems, you just like me.

Bodhisattva listening so read the sixth verse:

No, it was him who best suited his life.
With beard and jade,
he saw his presence troublesome,
I let go of him, take steps!

With these words, the doves fly away, and Death dies right there.

*

Dhamma terminates, the Master speaks the truth. At the end of the Truths, the bhikkhu was indoctrinated in the Overbearing Truth. Then he identified the forerunner:

- At that time, the raven was the greedy bodhisattva, while the dove was me.
