Long ago, when Brahmadatta reigned in the land of the country Balaam complaints, Bodhisattva reincarnated in the queen. In the name day, he called Prince silava (About Germany). When sixteen, he matured in all the talents. After some time, when his father shared destiny, he is placed on the title of king kingship Great morality.
Lawful kings reigned under the law. At the four gates of the king built four schools alms, to build a more middle of the city, at the door of his palace one. Six schools were built giving alms to the poor pilgrim. King over the world, keep the date younger men (Bodhisattva), full patience, kindness and from introspection. He ruled the country of lawful and wants all human beings want to be happy as beloved children sitting on his thigh to be happy.
One of King as misconduct within the palace, and after a period of being unearthed, the lords spoke to the king. King surveys, awareness of the work himself, for him to call lords, who was out of the frequency of the water and said:
- Hey fool the other, who do not work properly, you do not deserve to live in our country level. Take property, wives and children and go somewhere else!
But he went out of the country Kasi, Kosala King to work with, gradually becoming the trusted advisor close to the king. One day the man he spoke to the king of Kosala:
- Dear God particles, such as honey cake Kasi country no flies. Very effeminate king, with only a few troops as possible take into Kasi.
That heareth say, king thought: "Water Balaam tremendous appeal. It said the army is a little can take the city. It is possible it was hired bandits." Just said:
- I think Secretary is hired bandits.
Dear God and death, god is not lowered hired bandits! Than just tell the truth. If the king does not believe god, please send people to places devastated a village boundary, then Pharaoh will see, when people go devastating arrested, and taken to the King of Kasi before, the king would give property-and-drop Guardian.
King Kosala thought: "This is a very bold person, you have to say so, we will investigate it anyway." Then the king sent some of the king, went devouring a place at the border village of Balaam complaints. They were arrested and brought them to the king of Kasi. The king asked:
- Hey buddy, why do the villagers devastating?
- Dear God and death, because we can not make a living.
- Why do the people not to do? From now on, do not do that anymore.
King's money for them and release them on. They reported back to the king of Kosala the situation. With this experience, the king appointed military dare not go, they sent people to the devastating national level between the domain. He is the king of thieves Kasi for money as before and then released. King Kosala with this experience, it still would not dare move his troops, sent him back to the right in the street looting. Kasi king for his mobster's money and then drop them also. At that time, the king of Kosala king knew Kasi is the reigning king very gracious, immediately decided to send troops to seize the country Balaam complaints.
At that time, King Balaam complaints with a thousand great fighters, super heroes of Vietnam, fearless, these people could face rot is not run by the attack of a mad elephant, not afraid fear when lightning struck on the head, a champion army can occupy the whole of Yan-line-subject to the will of the great king silava. They heard that the king of Kosala to report immediately to the king of Kasi:
- Dear God Prince, King Kosala to take over the country with the intention of Balaam complaints. We'll go beat and arrested her king, the king did not step over the border.
- Behold the Secretary, not for myself but for others negativity. Those who want to national level, national level let him do. The Secretary shall not go!
King to stop the soldiers that fight the invaders. Then the king of Kosala crossed the border and between national penetration level domain. The lords to report to the king as before. King also blocked like the last time. Then the king of Kosala came and stood outside the city and reported to the Royal National silava or fighting traffic. Kasi King reported that the king paid no fighting words.
- Let's get to the national level.
Seventh, the lords came before the king:
- Dear God particles, they do not let the king of Kosala spirit into. Then his spirit will beat them outside the city, and began his reign.
But the king of Kasi still blocked like the last time, to open the gate, and sat on the king is splendid with a thousand courtiers surrounded. King Kosala with a large army to Balaam complaints. Not seeing anyone resisted, the king went to the palace of the king of Kasi, with open doors. King Kosala king immediately ordered the arrest Mahasilava sitting quietly on the throne along with thousands of courtiers surrounded.
- Let's tie this king with the lords, arms tied tightly behind them, took them to the graveyard, dig deep holes to the neck, which people can not raise their hands, then pour into the ground soil and buried alive general. At night, the jackals will come and will do what needs to be done for them!
The entourage behest invading king, the king of Kasi tied with lords, arms tied tightly behind her back, and then took them away. At that time, the great king silava no idea what hatred invading king. While the lords were bound and led away so that no one can disobey Kasi king, king of Kasi congregation are cleverly trained in the same discipline.
Then the soldiers of advanced invading kings and lords silava king went to the graveyard, dig deep holes neck, buried all down hole, buried in the Royal silava between the two sides to bury the great god, Dirt is up, take down and leave the background. King silava no outrage against invading kings and lords advises:
- Secretary Hey, let's gather compassion!
At midnight, the jackal comes, the cannibal. Seeing them, the king and his lords shout in unison, the jackal fear flee. When we go back to look, know no one chasing, they immediately revert back. The more he shouted before. Thus, they flee to a third, and then looked back, knowing no one to chase, we thought: "These people then died", so boldly went back, and when he heard shouting, they do not run hide anymore. Jackal approached the king silava leader, the rest of the others come close. Capital of skillful means and know their animals up close, take the ancient king of Kasi immediately as to the animal to bite, then the tug ancient jawbone foxes, king bite as clamps tightly to the grips. Jackal was biting the neck, jaw clamped by the powerful king as elephants, themselves can not escape, and terrified for fear of death, it came a loud howl.
Listen to the cries for help, thinking that foxes had been a princess captured, the other children did not come to close to the lords, and terrified for fear of death, they all fled. Firmly bitten by the king of Kasi jawbone, foxes caught panic ply, soft ground makes falling out and fear of death, with all four legs on the ground it rakes place Kasi king. King said the land has been soft fall off, immediately release the jackal. With power like elephants, king move back and forth, holding up his hands, then rails ashore into craters, craters as king escape clouds torn by the wind, and stood up. Then comfort and encourage the lords, kings dig up, pull everyone out of the pit. With the surrounding lords, King stood in the graveyard.
At that time, they had put a dead body in the graveyard, right on the border of the territory's two children Yakshis. Two Yakshis indivisible part was dead, they said:
- We can not split part of this dead body. King silava is the lawful life, he will give us a share. Let's go to him.
They hold off the corpse, dragged it to the king and said:
- Dear God particles, break for our people.
- Hey You Yakshis, I will divide this section for your corpse. But because we're clean, let us have baths.
Yakshis, with his power, bringing lotions for invading king to king Kasi bath; after a bath, they gathered the kings shirt Kadi, bring clothes for the country to wear the king robbed the king, then we give the king a box of four fragrances. When the king was anointed with perfumes, they are for all sorts king flowers studded with jewels in a box fan in gold, and jewels to the king.

Yakshis went took to the king of dishes prepared epigastric available for invading king. And after bathing and perfume, and makeup to wear, food to eat Kasi king epigastric. Yakshis bring scented water for invading king, with golden bowls and drinking cups of gold to the king, mouthwash. And while King handwashing, Yakshis bring betel spices with five flavors, was baptized available for use pirate king. Betel chewing is complete, when the king was standing, the king asked Yakshis need them to do something else. King said:
- Bring the golden sword king pillow placed on the water rob us.
And we went to get brought back. Then the king of swords, put straight on the corpse, cut down the middle of the top, divided into two equal parts for two Yakshis. After the split is completed, the king washed the sword, put it on and stand up straight. Yakshis feasting, satisfied mind, asked the king had told them to do something wrong again. Yakshis king told him, using his power to bring the king to king of kings invading room and put the grand home. We agree, do as the king.
At that time, King invading sleeping dragon bed in King room was decorated. Kasi king used the sword hit the ground on your stomach invading the sleeping king. King was startled to wake up, to light the lamp, recognizing the great king silava, immediately stood up from the bed, the guts, to the king of Kasi:

- O Lord, I though the man without knowing his merit. But his merit was Yakshis violent, cruel, drink blood, eat the other person clearly. Oh my master's level, now I will no longer put up betraying a moral level as him again!
Then the king of Kosala swords oath of friendship, sorry Kasi king, and to the king of Kasi sleeping dragon bed while sleeping on his small bed.
When the night's end, the sun had risen, the king invited all drummers soldiers, courtiers, Brahmin, the homeowners meeting. Standing in front of his officials as putting the full moon high up in the sky, the king of Kosala praised the virtues of King silava between all the congregation, sorry silava king, returned again to the king of his country, and said:
- From now on, if there are victims of thieves arises for him, I would be responsible. He let the reigning national level, and I guarded holder.
Saying so, King Kosala who was falsely accused of crimes, and bring the army to go about their country. King also Mahasilava jewelry, wearing a majestic, under a white parasol, golden dragon bed sitting with legs like a deer, looking at his achievement and think: "This achievement and the life of a rescued thousand lords, if we are not diligent, then do not get something. the strength due diligence, was not being destroyed, and restore lost reputation. we have saved the lives of a thousand lords. really to not ruined minded, must be very diligent.
