Said this is complete, at the request of the monks, the Master tells the story past. * Long ago, in the country of Gandhara, in Takkasila, the Bodhisattva was born as the professor had a reputation everywhere, vocational training for five hundred young Brahmin. The young man then, one day, go to the forest to gather wood brought. Among them are a lazy young man, find a tree big Varana, great trees had dried up the thought, "I'll sleep for a while, then will climb up the tree, cracking the wood down, pick up and take them home."

So the maid to cook porridge, get the idea that the wood is dry, until the sun rises still can not kindle the fire. That's the reason we went obstacles. The professor heard that youth employment and said: - The work of the fool has brought such harm. Then the professor read this verse: Who has the job front, later making new take -off as friends and moments, later it suffered. Thus, the Bodhisattva stated reasons for the disciples, and then do the merit life as alms .... And when the public network, he followed his career. * The Master said: - Hey, monks, who today was not new to him as obstacles. Erstwhile, who was also doing so already.

When born, the Bodhisattva was all white like a block of silver; Bodhisattva eyes like stone jewels, shining like five kinds of light; mouth like a red cloth; like a wire tap point silver red yellow spots. Fours as grinding smooth lacquer. Thus, the Bodhisattva figure with supreme beauty, adorned with ten well Balaam excellent honey. When Bodhisattva grew up, all elephants Hy-code Greek Son gather to servant bodhisattva. While living in Greek Son Hy-code surrounded with eight thousand elephants, found guilty Bodhisattva of elephants in the future, should be separated from the herd, lives alone in the woods, and with his virtue, Statue king called virtue. A person living in Balaam complaints, not used to living in the forest, go to Hy-code sequences Greek Son, find materials to feed his career. Do not get to be the orientation and who lost was panic for fear of being killed, walked and reached out, wailing. Bodhisattva who heard him wailing in transition, compassion, want to save that which was free of pain, went off the air. These see the Bodhisattva instant panic to flee. Bodhisattva saw who was running, stood back spot. He sees the Bodhisattva standing, standing well back. Bodhisattva went to, he again fled. When you see standing Bodhisattva, who was also stopped and thought: "The elephant is, when we run the stand again, as we stand, then go to close, we get rid of this suffering." Think, become mighty, who was standing again. Bodhisattva drew near and said: - Hey you, do you wander here, and crying so? - Lord elephant, not getting to be the direction, lost, so I'm afraid to die! Then Bodhisattva put him on his abode, in a few days, who treated him with real fruit and other things, and said: - Hey you, do not fear. I will take you to travel the path of humanity. Bodhisattva to who was sitting on horseback, leading to road riders Loan. He is the one who left you, think that if anyone asked, will say what needs to be said. While sitting on the back of the Bodhisattva, but he walked and tree identification Minister, Minister mountains. Bodhisattva come out of the woods, standing on the main road leading to Balaam complaint, he went off and said: - Hey you, go down this path. Whether or not anyone asks my place to ask, do not tell anyone. After saying that, for him to leave, then the Bodhisattva back his abode. He came Balaam complaints, while walking on the path of ivory workers, saw many different items made from ivory, asked: - Guys, if an elephant tusks are living, you have taken it? - What do you say? Live elephant tusks worth more dead elephant ivory. - I will bring to you an elephant tusks live. After preparing the food, take a sharp saw, he walks to the abode of the Bodhisattva. Lord Napier see who was asked: - You came here for what purpose? - Lord of elephants, poor me, life is too miserable. If you give me your ivory double, I'll sell them for money to feed. - So you, I give you my ivory, you have a saw to cut tusks not? - Lord elephant, brought me here with saws. - So let's cut and then brought back ivory. Then Bodhisattva co legs back, sat down like cow sitting. He saw two elephant tusks supreme lord. Bodhisattva took the hose delivered two ivory raise him and said: - Hey you, not because does not like attention, as do not like tusks that I give you this. But a thousand times, hundred thousand times more dear to us is enlightenment tusks, ivory can help us understand all things. Therefore, hope that the generosity of our double this ivory will give us omniscience Nhut! With those words, the Bodhisattva gave him two more golden as the price of omniscience Nhut. But he finished ivory, sold off. When the money's all gone, who he went to the Bodhisattva and said: - Lord elephant, after selling your two tusks, with the money to get, I only pay off old debt. So tell me the remaining tusks. Bodhisattva approval, security saw the ivory remains as before. He sold us, and go to and say: - I can not live, tell me the origin of the ivory leg. - Good! The elephant said and sat down as before. Cruel humans that stepped on the hose-like silver thread of the Great Master level, climb on top of elephants as Kelasa hitting peaks of the two original ivory leg, until the meat hook. Then this person was using the saw sawing sharp stump ivory leg, and taken away. When cruel man just out of sight of the Bodhisattva, the hard earth dense, more than two hundred thousand miles, can carry the weight of the mountain horrible Tu-mobile, with mountainside enclosure, with all sub disgusting smelly stool; but the earth could not bear the wicked, should have cracked forming an abyss. The flames from the depths of hell A-Pi spray up, covered the human response to a screen you die, who took her books taken away. Thus, when the wicked man he was swallowed into the earth, gods reside in clusters throughout the forest for the woods resound with the words: - Friends ungrateful traitor, the national oil level of Dharmaraja, do not feel satisfied. And to the sermon, he read verse god this: People are not grateful always find loopholes, oil is the earth, never satisfied. Thus, the teacher lectures tree, as he echoes the forest, And the Bodhisattva lived up to the public network, and followed his career. * The Master said: - Hey, monks, is not this just Devadatta New ungrateful. In the past, this person was also ungrateful then. After the matter was Dharma, the Master identified precursor as follows: - At that time, the friend betrayed that Devadatta, the tree gods Sariputta, there is virtue Statue King Me. -ooOoo- Yes 73.CHUYEN Afford?

The king sent open, go down the river, sent to find this place, somewhere else, but no one saw the prince. During thunderstorms, blind darkness, rain, Prince drift downstream rolling, suddenly saw a stick, sat on it, just scared to death just crying. At that time, a millionaire in Balaam complaints were dead and buried on a river bank assets worth some four hundred million. Since the attachment of property, so he made the snake spot being buried assets.

Midnight, was walking into, Bodhisattva heard anguished cries of the prince, thought to himself: "In the short term the ascetic have compassion like me, it's not appropriate for people to die. Let fished it out of the water, and save his life. " Then Bodhisattva comforted prince: - Do not be frightened. And Bodhisattva wade cross currents, to take one end of his stick, with persistent strength as elephants, Bodhisattva flick logs ashore, cradling the prince up on shore. See other animals, Bodhisattva help them up and taken to the hermitage, and kindle the fire. The weakest, is the Bodhisattva heating to warm, before the snakes, rats, parrots ... and then the prince new body warm up, causing them to be recovered, then give them food; first of all for the animals to eat, and then left on these new furnished and other foods for the prince. Prince thought: "The ascetic does not tell us miserable prince, proved the respect for animals." Then Prince rancor toward Bodhisattva. After a few days, when they had to regain health, and the river water was receding, serpent ascetic bowed position and said: - Venerable Sir, this venerable helped me a lot. I'm not poor. At one place, I have buried gold worth four hundred million. When he came to need the money, I can give that money venerable. Venerable just came to him and called: Solid dear.

I will call my people, we will bring to the red rice, vehicle laden and I will give more venerable. Having said so, the parrot flew away. Then comes the prince, saying nothing to thank, with interest before betraying a friend, Prince thought: "If it comes near me, I will kill him". However, trying to hide intent, the prince said: - Venerable Sir, when I came to the throne, I will make offerings venerable four requisites. Then went away and soon, the prince is set up your kingdom. Bodhisattva wanted to challenge them, first of all go to the snake stood, not far from it and call: - Snakes Oh! After the police, the snake crawled out, bowed Bodhisattva and said: - Venerable Sir, this site has four hundred million gold coins. Dig them up and take them all! Bodhisattva said: - So good.

Let's get it tied his hands behind, hit him in the intersection, take it out, and beheaded in law school, and exposure of the head on a sharp tree. They went to obey, Great Career Officers tied innocent, hitting him in the intersection, then led him to law school. Bodhisattva, while beaten, do not weep, do not cry mother, cried the father, not being swayed, just say this verse: Thus, they are telling the truth, people understand this life: Rescue drift logs salvaged some people better. Thus, at the site of the hit, the Bodhisattva say this verse. Hearing that, those who have there they said: - Hey monks, to our kings, Sage has done what merit? Bodhisattva recounts his story and said: - Thus, because saving people from high water line, I have afflicted me alone! Recall that I did not listen to the wise ancient mind, I said as he just heard. When they are listening to me, the Sat-sole-ly position, Brahmin etc ... are residing in the said indignantly: - The king is your response to such a position full of merit, not known for his gift of life users. How do we get any benefits from his king? Seize it! In anger, they rushed to the king from the many falls, with bows, swords, stones, sticks ... They killed the king riding on elephant back, grabbed the foot of the king pull down and thrown into a pit determined. Then they made the Bodhisattva empowerment, and set up the kingdom to your Bodhisattva. Bodhisattva water treatment is lawful.

King often make the merit of generosity and charity as the other. So the king and the animals live in harmony happy life together until then we take our business. * The Master said: - Hey, monks, is not this just Devadatta conspired against my new.

After telling the story past, the Master combines two stories and identify precursor: - At that time, the king is wicked Devadatta, the snake is Sariputta, the mouse is Section-devout-venture, the parrot is Ananda, even kings and kingdoms were ruled correctly the solution is Me. -ooOoo- 74. LAW ON PLANT FOREST STORY (Formerly Rukkadhamma) You instead, many people ..., This story, as in the United Vienna, the Master told about a domestic dispute. Because of this dispute, his relatives perished in distress. Knowing this, the Master passed nowhere, sitting cross-legged on the river Rohini, blue halo illumination, as the people he panicked. Then from nowhere to step down, the Master sat on the river bank to tell the story of this dispute. (This is a summary only. The details are mentioned in Kunala Forerunner 536). At that time, the Master calls the people and the king said: - O Lord, the people should treat each other in harmony and joy. When the relative harmony of unity, the enemies do not get the chance to subvert. Not just humans that need to unite new species inanimate objects also need to unite in harmony. Erstwhile, Hy-code sequences in Greek Son, the wind blowing through the trees Sa-la, however because the trees, bushes, shrubs, vines, etc .. of forests was tied together, so wind can not do down a tree, blowing only skim the top of the tree only. But the courts have a huge tree-la Sa stand alone, full twigs, stems, but not tied to other trees, so the wind blowing to the ground uprooted. For this reason, the need to live in harmony, joy together. Said this is done, according to the request, monks, the Master tells the story past. * Long ago, when Brahmadatta ruled in Balaam complaints, the Great King Vessavana (Pi-recluses) first shared destiny. Sakka king put an alternative. In this change, the new Vessavana vau successor send a message to the gods of trees, bushes, shrubs, vines ... - Ye choose your favorite abode. At that time, the Bodhisattva spirit being made sala tree in a forest. Bodhisattva said to the people: - When you choose abode, do not choose the tree that grows alone in space. Choose abode around where I have chosen in this Sala forest. Recreational gods sage plants do as Bodhisattva, choose their residence around abode of the Bodhisattva. Unlike the tree gods say: - Why are we choosing abode in the woods? We select people abode in place, the door of the village, the town, the capital, because the gods live trees near the village received the ultimate sacrifice and offering ultimate fame. So he selected the tree spirit abode in the road with people, places with big trees, in the gaps. One day, heavy rain emerged, the oldest tree in the forest with deep roots certainly have persistently stood separately in the past, also have broken twigs and stems, roots and been turned down. In contrast, when the storms blew through the forest, the trees stood a group Sala tied together, but strong storms reviews here and there, but could not make a tree fall. The tree spirit has been broken abode, no shelter, hands cradling the little children come to Hy-code sequences Greek Son and recounted his suffering to the gods in the Sala forest. This position reports to the Bodhisattva knows this fact. Bodhisattva said: - Because they do not obey the wise position, go to the predestined abode not enough, should face the same situation. Then Bodhisattva sermon through this verse: You instead, many people, as living trees from the forest, the wind blew down trees separate stand alone. Bodhisattva sermon so and lived until the public network, the Bodhisattva followed his career. * The Master said: - Thus, Sire, the people should live together in harmony, peace, joy, loving one another glass. After this dialogue sermon, the Master identified precursor as follows: - At that time, the congregation of the gods of the Buddha, and where is my god so gentle. -ooOoo- 75. BABY FISH STORY (Formerly Maccha) Thunder, PAJ-ju-na ..., This story stayed at Member States, the Master talked about the rain because he himself did. One time, according to legend, in Kosala, it does not rain, the crops withered, and there, ponds and water tanks have dried up. Even well dried up lake water Member States. Fish, turtles go into the mud, lying aground. Then crows, hawks ... until, with their beaks spear, harvesting them, pull them out and eat them are still struggling. The Master saw fish turtle wearing his victims with compassion, touched his thoughts: - Today, we must do the rain. When the night was over, the body wash is complete, it's time to consider alms, the mass surrounded by monks, with the majesty of a Buddha, he went into Xa-defense for alms. After dinner, on the road begging for food from the Xa-guard returned, he went to his residence on the first floor level of the lake stood Jeta, told Elder Ananda: - Hey Ananda, bring swimsuit come here. I will bathe in the lake Jeta! - But lord, lake have dried Member States. Only the remaining sludge. - Hey Ananda, Buddha huge force. Bring swimsuit again. Elders bring swimsuit and gave the Master.

In the afternoon, when we monks gathered in the French way, they speak of the virtues achievements patience, compassion, rambling of the Master: - When the crops withered, when the barrier lakes, while fish, turtles encountered greater suffering, because mercy wants to save us from suffering, he wore swimsuit, standing on the top level of the lake Member States, and only for a short time, as rain caused flooding throughout Kosala major water, freed from suffering mass of the body, the mind and returned to his residence. When it comes to this story, the Master from Huong room went out, the road to France and asked: - Hey, monks, and he sat here together, and are discussing a problem? Upon hearing her story, the Master said: - Hey, monks, is not this just a new Tathagata rain on the mass from fatigue. Long ago, when born as animals, as king fish, Tathagata has also made it rain. Said this is done, the Master tells the story past. * Erstwhile, in Kosala, Xa-defense in this spot Jeta lake, there is a lake tangled vines. Bodhisattva incarnated as a fish, the fish live around there. Like this, in his origin does not rain, the crops withered popular: the shallow ponds, the fish, turtles were stranded. In this lake, the fish stranded in mud, hiding in those places. The crows arrive, harvesting them to bring them up beak and eating them. Bodhisattva see his relatives was an accident, thought to himself: "Apart from me, no one else can save them from this misery. Let us make a happy voice. The fact, that the rain, and liberate us from a miserable relative to this death. " Turn mud into two, the Bodhisattva went up, it was a big fish, blackened with mud, like a box made of ebony core. Bodhisattva like pearl eye opening is washed, looked up to heaven, and said to Pajjuna king of the gods: - Hey you Pajjuna, we suffer because our relatives. When I, a master morality was grief, how can you not do it rains? For I, though born in a carnivorous species have her children, from the very beginning is the small fish, I would never eat a fish of a grain of rice, also never won a life of another living creature. With this truth, make rain and liberate our people out of their misery! After saying that, as ordered housemaids servant, Bodhisattva told Pajjuna king gods, this verse: Thunder, PAJ-ju-na, blocking too invasive! Do crows grief, sorrow Help me out! Thus Bodhisattva Pajjuna make sure heavy rain throughout Kosala and mass liberation from suffering to death. And when the public network, the Bodhisattva followed his career. * The Master said: - Hey, monks, not only this new Tathagata rain. Erstwhile, when born as a fish, I also did it rains. After telling this dialogue approach, the Master combines two stories and identify precursor as follows: - At that time, the congregation fish Buddha, gods Pajjuna king was Ananda, and the king of fish is Me. -ooOoo- 76.

Thus the elders wise elders there, though the full talents of all obstacles to cope with hardships, still clearly remember that they have abandoned How then, should be refused to assist and said " This is not our work, we are outsiders, let the kids fend internally ". Since then, he stood apart, and the decline will siege the other kings crowd from all sides.

What will happen from the sign of him? - This dream come true only in the future. At that time becomes unjust kings, and ruled according to their own preferences, should not in justice court. We crave this kingly gold and increased the bribes, they do not show mercy to love his people, but cruelty of wealth plundered by them surface trampling and crushing me like taxing people to the point where no more coin pocket. Since we can not afford any tax collection burden on the back, around the urban population will flee villages, sought refuge in the border area of ​​the country at the center of the country becomes wilderness, while dense border area population. Sex is like muddy water holding tank, and the limpid lake. However, the Great King had nothing to fear anything that was even, I hear tell the tenth dream. 10. - Buddha, looks like I do my show in a pot boiling rice without mixing them. Because not stir, so the rice pot is split out like three distinct parts cook in three phases: the pasty nhẹt section, then brusquely parts, portions, cooked really delicious! It is the station's tenth dream. What will happen from the sign of him? - This dream did not come true until the future. At that time kings injustice, people under underhanded also become, the Brahmin, homeowners, citizens, farmers as well; yes, people are into the underhanded all, even the Brahmin wise. Next, there are upholding their gods, the gods they sacrifice civilians, such as tree spirits, gods in space, also became underhanded always, even if the wind blows through the state of marriage this military becomes hurricane chaos, rocked the temple of Heaven, which makes gods out of anger, not for the rain falling; or as if the rain day, he would fall all over the country the same time, there was also a large thunderstorm rains are good irrigation on lands to till seeding to help people in need are vicious attacks. Thus, in a vast country, in every village, lake, pond, rain falling at the same time in the same range; if rain in the upper part, it did not rain in the lower part, where the crop was badly damaged due to hydrocephalus, arid the other places because of the drought, more prosperous place thanks to good weather the storm steadily. The crop is in the same national level - such as the rice in a pot - will not be the same. However, the Great King has nothing to fear because it all. Tell tenth dream I heard a go. 11. - Buddha, looks like I do my show fresh butter timber will be taken in exchange for chien- Forum (frankincense) quarter worth a hundred thousand coins. It is the eleventh dream. Is there something going on from that reasonable? - This dream did not come true so far future, the day that my dharma decay. At that time, many monks very precious heartless greed appears, rice and clothing pieces just because they preach the Dhamma I have spread in order to eradicate lust! Do we abandon the Church because of avaricious body and now rank heresy of them, they can not preach the Dhamma leads to Nirvana. No, they're just thinking, while teaching, how to use enough flowery words and sweet voice to seduce the masses give them food, expensive clothes and things like that and just specialized nursing care benefit offerings. There are those who sit in the avenue, corner, crouched superb goal ... teaching for the money, because of the large and small coins. And while they sold cheap Dhamma leads to Nirvana invaluable in exchange for food, clothes, gold and silver, they have nothing else who bartered sheep-herd timber worth hundreds of thousands of fresh butter to get the other stuff ? However, the Great King had nothing to fear sex at all, tell twelfth dream for me to hear. 12. - Buddha on, I found the secret vote hollow wire back under. So what happens reasonable? - This dream did not come true until the future with unjust kings, crazy world. At that time kings do not appreciate the aristocratic but inferior preferential us, so we will be the lord of the ruling elite while aristocratic crowd to be sinking into poverty. Also in place of the court, in providing technical, in the hall or the court's only four words inferior - which firmly established, as the country could sink bottom. Even in the quarterfinals of the offerings: food clothes, couch, medicinal ... well, just opinions fitness wicked, decadent is considered right to dispose of and not the opinion of the monks know where sufficient sexual minorities. Something like that everywhere is like the scene back wire submerged hollow gourd. However, the Great King has nothing to fear about it all. Tell thirteenth dream for me to hear. 13. - Then the king said: - Buddha, looks like I do my shows large boulders in the house, again floated like boats on the water. So what will happen reasonable? - This dream did not come true so far as I have said future on. In those days, kings unfair advantage of the lower class crowd, they will become the powerful lord of noble folks at poverty decline. People no longer revered aristocrat, but a new cult of wealthy men only. At King fell Dynasty, in the meeting room privy, or in place legal, word of the nobility law expertise - the very characteristics that have large classes who symbolizes this - floating adrift again, not about deep into our mind. When they spoke, the men of this emerging bourgeois scornful laugh, said to each other: "The other name What are you saying?". Likewise, in the congregation of monks, as mentioned earlier, it is not to respect the supreme rank among recluses row, so word of this location is not deposited, but only drift that go lost, as if the boulders floated on the water. However, the Great King has nothing to be afraid of sex at all. Tell us listen to the fourteenth dream for me to hear. 14. - Buddha, I do my apparently did not see the bigger frog catches tiny petals withered, the agile hunters giant snakes, snapping them off pieces such as the lotus and devoured them a while to complete. What will happen reasonable? - This dream did not come true until the future, what I have said before, the world's decay. Then the four men craving emerged too intense, too passionate desire to the point they become slaves to them concubine young children in the house, the servants, workers, cattle, pigs and chickens, gold and silver, until everything else is depending crowd disposition concubines. Assuming the other miserable husband asked if money, clothes to where consecutive meeting where it shelves it, he had to worry about me, do not ask any questions about what frumpy house "his wife I "at all! Then by all means, we use words other concubines husband as swarms of slaves, servants, so just like the flood of counterfeit sharp, not greater than the tiny flowers, cobra swallowed again! But he had nothing to worry about there. I hear tell fifteenth dream. 15. - Buddha, looks like I do my country saw a crow, a full ten-virtue, to be a full entourage of escort bird, the birds-yellow coat color, often dubbed Kim nga regal. What will happen reasonable? - This dream, Sire, nor achievements to date and future, the era monarchs recession. It is time the king appeared not know anything about martial arts, elephants, horses, and the cowardice as a substitute, for fear of being deposed, or expelled from the kingdom, so we put the four bodyguards, almost bath, haircut, like that came to power instead of putting up the noble group. Thus, this crowd does not favor the king buds enjoy the water, not enough to support himself, had to endure almost condescending flanking the wealthy men, like ravens are cloud Kim nga royal servant. However, the Great King has nothing to fear about it all. Tell sixteenth dream for me. 16. - Until now, the main species hunted chamois aggressive, but it looks like I do my dream chamois hunting tigers and tear vegetables vegetables. While just saw the ball far goats from wolves herd panicked and immediately fled into the bush to hide herself. It is the dream of the station. What will happen reasonable? - This dream, Sire, also failed to materialize so far future, when any intelligent kings ruled. At that time, they were inferior ruling elite held so much grace and regal, aristocratic crowd while impoverished desert into darkness. Since there are many forces in the court of the king by grace, we new this wealth requires deprived ownership of the land, clothes, and all the assets of the ancestors of the ancient aristocratic crowd. When these guys trying to defend their rights before the courts, but were bunch of kings confidential valet retrieve sticks beaten, thrown out shareholder with vulgar words, something like: "Is there spirits , the other foolish men! Why? you want to fight with us? the king will know the rude of you, then we will send you chop off limbs and appropriately punished both flood! ". Then noble folks appalled to realize that their property has become the property of the new folks too harsh dominate the other, to ask newly grace we take their property. Then they rushed home to shirk in fear anxiety. Likewise, the evil monks terrorist spoiled, destroy friendly gentle monks, deserved, until the people who can not see further protect themselves, had to flee into the forest. Such oppression and friendly congregation nobles, monks are like wolves goats were threatened. However, he has nothing to be afraid of sex at all. Because this dream is just related to the future only. Thus, not because the truth or love of the Great King made the Brahmin predict how they told where the Great King. It just wants avaricious greed, the knowledge is nourished by greed made them utter those words bring boon for his part only. Thus the Master had taught the meaning of the sixteen big dream is finished, and he added: - Hey Great King, he was not the first to dream like that; the old days, kings used to dream dreams saw this, and as well as now, the Brahmin found this cause to celebrate Mass the altar; For this, at the request of the gentle and friendly place, the Bodhisattva has been consulted, and the dream was the wise old site explaining exactly like how they are explaining now.

Looks like I just hope not wasting the king's archives s all? - Bach master, so please just do as the master himself. Youth Brahmin said. And part of me, I was staying with his master to do is he anyway? So he said goodbye to his teacher finished and went to members of the Royal defense. That same day, the Bodhisattva knows all this, he thought to himself: "Suppose we visit the mundane today, we will release the many creatures from captivity was right". He then traveled through space, the other member descends in defense, he seated and illuminated like a golden statue on the lithographs for the ceremony. Youth Brahmin approached, bowed and sat down beside him with an expression of friendship. Quiet conversation took place, and the Bodhisattva asked young Brahmin think this king ruled lawful affordable. Youth meeting: - Venerable Sir, the king who was genuine, but the Brahmin made him inclined to virtue. When King asked about the sixteen big dream that he had seen, the Brahmin instant shooting even that opportunity to claim international protection above and immediate action. So venerable sir, if the venerable please explain to the king to understand the true meaning of his dream and that is rescued countless beings from the horror of death, not a philanthropist heal them up? - But these men to death, we do not know the king, whom he did not know me. However, if the king wants to come here to ask us, we will tell the king to hear. Youth Brahmin replied: - Venerable Sir, I'm going to pick the King came here. Just ask Venerable please wait here for a while until I return. After being accepted to the Bodhisattva, he came and said before the king pedestal: - In defense there is a hermit who just astronauts through space and descends, it sure can you explain the dream of the Great King, the Great King respectfully recounted the dream for the hermit him? When the king heard this, immediately set off to escort the royal garden. Just pay homage to the hermit, the king sat down beside him and asked if he understood the truth is what will happen from her dreams affordable. Bodhisattva replied: - Of course, yes. But first, tell me the dream of the Great King. - Bach Venerable, I now ready, and began to tell the king replied as follows: Before bulls, seedlings, then cows, calves, horses, gold bowl, painted cranes, Water, a shower in, Rice live, you herd sheep, Gourd pumpkin diving down the line, to the floating stones, sharp Counterfeit , bullfrog same flock Shred cobra, Crow has entourage As beautiful Russian royal herd, wolf, mountain goats fear! And then the king after the king Pasenadi like dreams (Persian-anonymously) aforementioned. Great Career Si said: - That's enough, the Great King there is nothing to fear about it all. After reassuring the King finished and released the other creatures crowd from detention, the bodhisattva associated air cylinder, extension Catholic kings, and kings to the five precepts reside and concludes with these words: - O Lord, from now on Great King not to collaborate with the Brahmin to kill animals and herd health. After the lecture finished, Bodhisattva traveled through space to return to his shelter. And the king, serving prime teachings were heard, specializing in giving life, and to do many other good merits and when the public network to follow his career. * Upon termination of these talks, the Master said: - Great king nothing to be afraid of his dreams at all. So let's cancel the altar away. After the king to cancel the international protection and rescue countless herd creatures, he combined the two stories and identify precursor: - At that time the king Ananda, Sariputta is young Brahmin and I was the hermit did. -ooOoo- 78. trans ILLISA MILLIONAIRE (Formerly Illisa).

I do not think anyone, even a drop of oil taken from the tips of the grass! Who was giving my property, let's call it coming and interrogating it, said Thien-mail. Sakka summoned to the king, the difference between these two men, both kings and lords are unknowable. Area miserly millionaire said: - Dear God Prince, who's not a millionaire. I'd be a millionaire. - We do not know who the real millionaire! Who could know them? - Dear God death, my wife. The king called his wife to come and ask: - Any person who is your husband?

I am not the lord and master of them. Those who make the king angry or do something wrong, then we are all of them new. For this reason, we can not tell the Bride of authority and power in the kingdom. - So, Sire, if the Great King can not force a business card across the country or around the city, at least for business cards on the power supply in the cabinet, to business cards can dominate those who live in the palace . King too captivated by disasters should contact undeniable words Yakshis women, and they accepted. - You instead, the bride, bride and I will give power to those who live within the palace, as such, their spouse can put under his authority.
