Called Mātuposaka Rāma. He was an Inhabitant of Bārāṇasī and greatly loved his parents. He once went on business to Kumbhavatī, in the country of Daṇḍakī, and there, when the country was being destroyed owing to the wickedness of the king, Rāma thought of the goodness of his parents. The devas were moved by the power of this thought and conveyed him safely to his mother (J.v.29). He was one of the three survivors of the disaster which overtook Daṇḍakī’s kingdom. MA.ii.602.
