Humans have morality ...
This story, when in Bamboo Forest, near Rajgir, the Buddha tells of Devadatta. The story of Devadatta will be counted until done robber in Khandahala precursor (No. 533), until he was driven from office depositories in Cullapanthaka precursor (No. 533), until the earth is swallowed alive in the sixteenth chapter in Samud-davanija precursor (No. 466).
One time, Devadatta requires five conditions, but is not, and they destroy the harmony of the Sangha, carrying five hundred monks to stay in Gayasisa. Then the location of the monks that are mature, know this, the Master told the two disciples debut:
- Hey Sariputta, five hundred monks of his disciples, possessed of Thread enjoy -Three-reaching radar, who went with him. Their position was now tamed. He let go there with many monks, preach to them as they enlightened the Paths and the Fruits, and take them on.
- In the words of the Blessed One, venerable Sariputta go there, they do their sermons for enlightenment on Paths and Fruits; until the next day, when the new dawn sky, venerable monks that brought about Truc Lam.

- Hey, monks, is not this just a new Sariputta dazzling splendor of her son when surrounded by the congregation, but in the past, and such dazzling splendor!
The monks ask Exalted clarified this issue. Bhagavan clearly presented following the past story.
*
Childhood later, at the Ma-out-momentum, in Rajgir, a king Ma-out-momentum reigning. At that time, the Bodhisattva was born as a deer, and grew up in the woods with a thousand deer. Bodhisattva bore two deer, named Lakkhana (auspicious) and Kala (Black). When old, Bodhisattva said to the children:
- Dear dear, now I am old, you just take care of the deer.
Then Bodhisattva delivered five hundred deer for each child. From then on, two deer herds that care.
In Ma-out-momentum, in the fall of grain, rice flowering when full, are more dangerous for the deer. With the aim of killing the animals eat rice, the villagers dug trenches, plugging husband, described the trap rock, trapping sop and other kinds of pitfalls. Many deer in distress to die.
Bodhisattva known to bear the full grain, to call back and say two children:
- Dear relatives, this is the full flowering of grain, many deer were near accidents. I am old now will use any means to stay in one place. And you bring herds of children, hidden in the rocky mountain path in the woods, waiting for the rice harvest is complete, will return again!
We obey the teachings of his father, leaving the deer entourage. The villagers know their way away. In this time, the deer climbing; in this time, we went down the mountain, so they hide in the secret, here and there along the way, to shoot and kill countless.
Kala deer, with his ignorance, do not know when to go, what time should not go, just bring the deer to go in the morning, afternoon, when dusk, dawn, past the village gate. And the farmer or revealing or hiding here and there to kill them, causing many deer in distress. So, with his ignorance, deer Kala makes many deer in distress, the rest goes into the woods with it very little.
And thanks to the location Lakkhana deer, intelligent, skillful, yet know when to go, what time should not go, it does not pass through the village gate, do not go during the day, do not go at sunset, dawn, but only bring the deer away at midnight. Therefore, not a deer in distress yet, and we go into the woods with it. We lived here for four months when the rice has been harvested, new down the mountain.
Kala, on the way back, repeating foolish action before, making the remaining deer crashed, again, alone it back. Lakkhana deer doe does not make a distress, along with five hundred deer around, going about with their parents. When the Bodhisattva saw two go on, think about the deer and said this verse:
welcome reward,
View Lak-kha-na on,
they led the people,
Ca-la See this
destruction with her children.
Thus, the Bodhisattva celebrate deer, live in it for the end of life and followed his career.

The Master said: - Sariputta today not only shine with her new baby around, which previously had such brilliance. And Devadatta not new today only makes retinue is destroyed, which previously been the case.

Long ago, when kings ruled Brahamadatta in Balaam complaints, the Bodhisattva of birth as a deer. When born from the womb, deer yellow color, its eyes like stone jewels, silver-white horns, red mouth like velvet curtains, muddy color glossy nail lacquers, tail-like tail buffalo forest (Yak), great by itself calf. It lives in the woods, surrounded with five hundred deer and elk is called Princess Nigrodla (Cay Da). Not far enough, there is another deer, with five hundred deer entourage and called deer Sakha (fast), this deer yellow color.
At that time King Balaam complaints often hunting deer, no not to eat venison. Every day the king summoned the provincial population, the suspension of the work of the people and the king liked to go hunting. People think: "This king suspend our work, let us sow the bait and set traps for deer drinking water in the garden, many deer chased into it, closed the door and began leading them to the king" .
Thus, they sow grass bait traps, placed throughout the garden, drinking water, for ordering the door, to bring people into the city, Cone handles, sticks and other kinds of weapons of war, went into the forest to find the deer, they cover a siege about a mile to catch the herds were surrounded in the middle, and so they surrounded the whereabouts of the deer and the deer Nigrodha Sakha.
When you see the deer, they began taking the tree bats, beating dust, earth dams, chase the deer out of their shelter, brandishing weapons activities as swords, spears, bows, shouting and chasing the deer in the forest . Then they closed the door, went to meet the king and said:
- Sire, as always hunt deer, Dai Vuong sabotage our work. This led us to the deer forest full garden of the Great King. Henceforth, Dai Vuong can eat them.
After so sparse, the people cast off. The king heard them say, went to the garden, overlooking the deer, saw two golden deer, died immediately forgive them. From then on, the king himself went there to shoot a deer and then brought back. Sometimes the chef go, shoot the deer and then brought back. The deer, bow saw, trembling for fear of instant death to flee. But when two or three wounds, they are tired, sick, and killed. Forums deer report such incidents to the Bodhisattva. Sakha Bodhisattva to call and say:
- Hey you, many deer harmed, howsoever they must die. But starting from now on, do not let the deer was shot name in vain. Let the deer turns come to die. One day the deer is my version, a release date is your deer. Deer do your turn to go on, lie down to die for incoming site. Doing so, the other deer from injury.
Sakha approved deer. From then onwards, according to his version, a deer go, lie down, put the collar on the site of the killing. The cook came, caught the deer lay there and brought it.
One day turn to a pregnant doe deer in Sakha. Sakha doe came and said:

Sakha Nai says:
- Can not tell the other deer that day for you to be. And thou shalt take to thee what, let's go.
Doe deer had not been approved Sakha, went to the Bodhisattva and explain what has happened. Hearing Bodhisattva then said:
- Yes, let's go! I will skip's session!
Then go to the deer god himself, first put to death lying in wait. Chefs who saw it then said:
- The deer Princess was released from dead, and is located in this dead space. This incident is Why?
Then he walks to report to the king. The king immediately seated in the car, go to a large entourage, found Bodhisattva and said:
- Hey you nai Princess, we were spared from death to humans. Why are you here today?
- Sire, a doe came to me, asking another one turns to it. I can not catch a pain other than being dead. I decided to doe was my life, receive death instead doe should stay here, Dai Vuong shalt have no other doubt!
Just said:
- O Princess golden deer, from before, we have never seen among men, one full mosaic ring, gently and compassionately as you. So, you're really happy with. Get up, and I will give thee doe frightened him escape!
- Ladies and subjective level, there are two deer get rid of fear, deer rest How?
- Hey Princess deer, the deer would rest from fear.
- O Lord, the deer get rid of the fear, but the four-legged creatures the others?
- Hey Princess deer, we also let us get rid of fear!
- Sire, four-legged species get rid of fear, but the birds, then how?
- Hey deer lord, I will give them escape the fear!

Thus deer princess asked the king to get rid of fear for all beings, stood up, advised the king expectancy in the world, and said:

After the sermon to the king with the magic power of the Buddha, Bodhisattvas live in the garden for a few days to encourage Catholic king, then along with the deer around, up the hill to follow them into the woods. Doe deer laying out a beautiful as a flower bud. This little fawn deer hang out with Sakha. Seeing her go out with deer herds Sakha, doe advise their children, starting now not going to Sakha, should go to Nigrodha and in verse:

From then onwards, the deer escape fear when people eat rice. And people remember that the deer get rid of fear, so did not dare beaten or chased them away. They gathered in the field and report to the king king said. Just said:
- Do we consent, it was a privilege for Nigrodha deer. I would rather dehydrated and not give promise. Go, go, in our national level, not yet beaten the deer!

Beings enjoy new sexual pleasures when figurative, but will meet victims suffering, cut hand, were five kinds of suffering, tied up, beaten. Make other people suffering and dying is something worth being criticized in this life! Korea women's level of accomplishing that, the destiny command, she is the female national leadership is something worth criticizing! the living being subject to the dominant female is worth being criticized.
