Saadhusiila Jaataka |
The bodhisatva was once a famous brahmin teacher. A certain brahmin had four daughters
who were wooed by four suitors -- one handsome, one senior, one noble and the last
virtuous. unable to decide between them, the brahmin sought the teacherís advice
and gave all his four daughters to the virtuous man. The story was related to a brahmin
of Savatthi who consulted the Buddha in a similar case. The two brahmins were identical. |
