Māluta Jātaka
Jātaka같은 동굴에 사는 사자와 호랑이가 달의 흑분(어두운 반달)과 백분(밝은 반달) 중 어느 쪽이 더 추운지 논쟁하고, 은둔자(보디삿타)가 추위는 빛이나 어둠이 아니라 바람에서 온다고 설명하여 해결하는 자타카로, 같은 논쟁을 벌였던 두 숲속 거주 비구와 관련하여 이야기되었다.
Once, two friends, a lion and a tiger, lived in a cave. They had a dispute as to which was the cold part of the month, the dark half or the light, and they referred the matter to a hermit (the Bodhisatta), who said that the cold was caused by wind and not by light or darkness.
The story was told to two forest dwelling monks of Kosala, Kāḷa and Juṇha, who consulted the Buddha in a similar dispute. The lion and the tiger are identified with the monks. J.i.164 ff.
