Kaṇha Jātaka

Jātaka

一則本生故事,講述一位見證佛陀神蹟的老婦人,在僧伽舍神變之後被講述,以說明此類奇蹟並非只在佛陀最後一生才有;故事中的老婦被認定為蓮花色比丘尼的前生。

The story of Ayyikākāḷaka (q.v.) The story was related by the Buddha to the monks, who expressed great wonder at the miracles performed by him at Saṅkassa. It was not only in his last birth that he performed wonders. The old woman in the story is identified with Uppalavaṇṇā (J.i.193 ff).

The story is also given in the Aṅguttaranikāya Commentary (i.415), with a few additional details. The Dhammapada Commentary (iii.213) refers to it as the Kaṇha-usabha Jātaka.
