Cūḷa-Kuṇāla Jātaka

Jātaka

A Jātaka that refers to a longer companion tale on the same theme, apparently named for the last of a series of stories illustrating the fickleness and wickedness of women — the tale of Piṅgiyānī, wife of Brahmadatta.

For this story reference is made to the Kuṇāla Jātaka.

The opening words quoted occur at the end of several stories, related by Kuṇāla to illustrate the fickleness and wickedness of women.

Cūḷa-Kuṇāla is probably the name given to the last of these stories, which tells of Piṅgiyānī, wife of Brahmadatta. J.iv.144.
