The story of how a monkey insulted a tortoise by introducing his private parts into
the tortoise as the latter lay basking in the sun with his mouth open. The tortoise
caught hold of the monkey and refused to release him. The monkey went for help, and
the bodhisatva, who was an ascetic in a hermitage nearby, saw the monkey carrying
the tortoise. The bodhisatva persuaded the tortoise to release the monkey. The story
was related in reference to the quarrelsome ministers of the king of Kosala. |
