Bilārakosiya Jātaka
Jātaka講述一支世代樂善好施家族的本生故事:始祖為投生帝釋天的 Bārāṇasī 商人,傳至第六代 Bilārakosiya 卻變得吝嗇並燒燬施捨所,後經化身婆羅門的帝釋天等一族羞辱勸誡方才悔改。
A Jātaka tracing a line of generous almsgivers descended from a Bārāṇasī merchant reborn as Sakka, down to the sixth heir Bilārakosiya, who turned miserly and burned the family almonry until Sakka and his kin, disguised as brahmins, shamed him into reforming.
