The bodhisatva once had a friend who was a tavern keeper. One day the tavern keeper
made ready a supply of strong spirits and went to bathe, leaving his apprentice Konda~n~na
in charge. The latter, who had seen customers send for salt and jagghery to make
their drink more appetizing, pounded some salt and put itin the liquor hoping to
improve it. The story was told in reference to a friend of Anathapindika who was
a tavern keeper whose apprentice did likewise. |
