Kiṃchanda Jātaka

Jātaka

단 한 번의 자선 행위에 대한 보답으로 낮에는 고통을, 밤에는 영화를 번갈아 받는 몸으로 다시 태어난 부패한 제관에 관한 자타카로, 그의 마법 망고 숲을 옛 왕이 찾아오는 이야기이며, 포살을 지키는 몇몇 재가 신도들에게 설해졌다.

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.
