Litta Jaataka |
The bodhisatva was once a dice-player and used to play with a sharper who, when he
saw he was losing, would put one dice in his mouth pretending it was lost. The bodhisatva
discovered this, and one day brought dice smeared with dried poison. The sharper
played his usual tricks and suffered great pain from the poison. The bodhisatva then
cured him thus teaching him to be honest in the future. The Jataka was told in reference
to certain monks who were careless in the use of the various requisites given to
them. |
