Kiṃchanda Jātaka
Jātakaयह जातक कथा एक भ्रष्ट पुरोहित के बारे में है जो एक दान-कर्म के फलस्वरूप दिन में दुख और रात में वैभव बारी-बारी से भोगने के लिए पुनर्जन्म लेता है, जिसके मंत्रमुग्ध आम्रवन में उसका पूर्व राजा उससे मिलने आता है; यह कथा उपवास रखने वाले कुछ उपासकों को सुनाई गई।
A chaplain of the king of Bārāṇasī, who took bribes and gave false judgments, is reborn to a state of suffering all day, but as a result of having given a mango fruit to a woman who was keeping the fast, he enjoys great glory throughout the night in a charming mango-grove. His king, who had become an ascetic, eats a mango which had been carried by the river from this grove, and wishes for some more. He is transported by a river nymph (Uppalavaṇṇā of this age) to the mango-grove, where he hears from his erstwhile chaplain the story of his alternate bliss and misery. The Buddha related the story to some of his lay disciples who were keeping the fast (J.v.1 ff). The king is identified with the Bodhisatta.
