Amba Jaataka |
During a very severe drought, a hermit leader of 500 other hermits who lives in the
Himalaya, provided water for animals using the hollowed trunk of a tree as a trough.
In gratitude, the animals brought him various fruits, enough for himself and his
500 companions. The story is related regarding a monk who was very zealous in his
duties, doing everything well and wholeheartedly. Because of his great goodness,
the people gave him, and 500 other bretheren, alms regularly |
