Tissā10

Person

Жена Мундагутты, которая, желая подавать милостыню, продала сына, чтобы купить корову, чьё обильное топлёное масло вызвало зависть министра, пока царь, узнав правду, не наградил супругов и не наказал министра.

Wife of Muṇḍagutta. Wishing to give alms, they sold their son and bought a cow, which gave them rich ghee. A minister, displeased with them, had the cow confiscated by the king; but the king discovering that Tissā alone could milk her, asked her for her story, and gave them great rewards, making the minister their slave. They lived in Tissambatittha in the time of Saddhā Tissa. Ras.ii.31 f.
