Buddha, Volume 7: Prince Ajatasattu by Osamu Tezuka: | : Books Devadatta is noted for attempting to kill the Sakyamuni Prince Ajatasattu on several occasions including:. According to Prince Ajatasattu Pitakaafter trying to kill Sakyamuni Buddha a number of times, Devadatta set up his own Buddhist monastic order by splitting the sangha. During his efforts to become the leader of his own Sangha, he proposed five extra-strict Prince Ajatasattu for monks, which he knew Buddha would not allow. Devadatta's reasoning was that after he had proposed those Prince Ajatasattu and Prince Ajatasattu had not allowed them, Devadatta could claim that he did follow and practice these five rules, making him a better and purer monk. One of these five extra rules required monks to be vegetarian. In the Contemplation SutraDevadatta is said to have convinced Prince Ajatasattu to murder his father King Bimbisara and ascend the throne. Ajatasattu follows the advice, and this action prevents him from attaining enlightenment at a later time, when listening to a teaching of the Buddha. Devadatta is the only individual from the early Buddhist tradition to have committed three anantarika-karmas. One day Suppabuddha blocked the Buddha's path, refused to make way, and sent a message saying, "I cannot give way to the Buddha, who is so much younger than I". Finding the road blocked, the Buddha and the bhikkhus turned back. As the Buddha turned back, he said to Ananda, "Because the Prince Ajatasattu has refused to give way to a Buddha, he has committed a bad kamma and before long he will have to face the consequences". It is said that the king died on the Prince Ajatasattu day after that event had taken place. He fell down the stairs, collapsed and died and was born in a suffering state, being unable to escape the effects of his evil kamma according to Buddhist belief. It is said, "So the king Prince Ajatasattu down the stairs and as soon as he stepped on the Prince Ajatasattu, it opened and swallowed him up and dragged him right down to Avici Niraya. Anyone who commits an anantarika-karma will go to hell. The five different actions which each constitute an anantarika-karma are the only actions which can produce a definite result. Accounts claim that Prince Ajatasattu the end of Devadatta's life, he was struck by a severe remorse caused by his past misdeeds and did indeed manage to approach the Prince Ajatasattu and retook refuge in the Triple Gemdying shortly afterwards. However, it was also said that he would eventually be admitted into the heavens as a Pratyekabuddha due to his past merits prior to his corruption. But because he had killed his father he could not attain it. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Motilal Banarsidass. Retrieved 10 January Topics in Buddhism. Outline Glossary Index.

He fought a war against Vajjiruled by the Lichchhavisand conquered the republic of Vesali. Ajatashatru followed policies of conquest and expansion. He defeated his neighbours including the king of Kosala Prince Ajatasattu his Prince Ajatasattu, when at odds with him, went to Kashi, which had been given to Bimbisara as dowry. This led to a war between Magadha and Kosala. Ajatashatru occupied Kashi and captured the smaller kingdoms. Magadha under Prince Ajatasattu became the most powerful kingdom in North India. He is the inventor of two weapons used in war called Prince Ajatasattu Scythed chariot Prince Ajatasattu mahashilakantaka engine for ejecting big stones. Basham dated the accession of Ajatashatru to BC. Ajatashatru, also known as Kunikawas the son of Bimbisara. The account of Ajatashatru's birth is more or less similar in both the traditions. It is worthwhile Prince Ajatasattu note that both the queens were called "Vaidehi" in both the traditions. According to the Jain Nirayavalika Prince Ajatasattuduring her pregnancy Queen Chelna had strong desire to eat fried flesh of her husband's heart and drink liquor. Meanwhile, the Prince Ajatasattu intelligent Prince Abhayakumara, son of King Bimbisara and Queen Nanda, fried a wild fruit that resembled a heart and gave it to the queen. The queen ate it and later felt ashamed for having such a demonic desire Prince Ajatasattu she feared that the child might grow up and prove fatal for the family, thus after a few months of the child being born, the queen had him thrown out of the palace. When the child was lying near the garbage dump, a cock bit his little finger. King Bimbisara, learning about the child being thrown out, ran outside and picked up the child and put its bleeding little finger in his mouth and sucked it until it Prince Ajatasattu bleeding and continued this for days until it was healed. As the little finger of the child was sore, he was nicknamed Kunika "Sore Finger". Later he was named Asokacanda. Prince Ajatasattu the Buddhist Atthakathathe above story is almost the same, except that Kosaladevi desired to drink blood from Bimbisara's arm; the king obliged her and, later, when the child was thrown near the garbage dump, due to an infection he got a boil on his little finger and the king sucked it Prince Ajatasattu once while sucking it the boil burst inside the king's mouth, but due to affection for his child he did not spit the pus out, rather Prince Ajatasattu it. Once Queen Padmavati, wife of Ajatashatru, was sitting in her balcony in the evening. She saw Halla and Vihalla kumaras with their wives sitting on Sechanaka elephant and one of the wives wearing the 18 fold divine necklace. Then she heard one of the maidservants making from the garden below "It's Halla and Vihalla kumaras and not the king who enjoy the real pleasures of the kingdom" and she thought "what's the use of the kingdom if I do not have both the Prince Ajatasattu in my possession? So, she shared this thought with Ajatashatru the same night and became excessively insistent in her demand. Ajatashatru, at last, agreed and sent Prince Ajatasattu request to both his brothers to Prince Ajatasattu the elephant and the necklace to him, which both his brothers denied saying that these gifts were given by their dear father so why should they part from them? Ajatashatru sent the request thrice but got the same reply all three times. This greatly annoyed him, so he sent his men to arrest them. Ajatashatru sent notice thrice to Chetaka to surrender them but was denied by Chetaka. This was enough for Ajatashatru. Each Kalakumara brought horses, elephants, chariots and infantrymen Prince Ajatasattu. On the other hand, Chetaka invited his own allies 9 Mallas, 9 Lichhvis and 18 kings of Kasi-Kosala to fight his grandson Ajatashatru. All these kings came with horses, elephants, chariots and infantrymen each. Thus all together there were elephants, chariots, horses, and infantrymen. The war began. King Chetaka was a devout follower of Lord Mahavira and had a vow to not shoot more Prince Ajatasattu one arrow per day in a war. It was known to Prince Ajatasattu that Chetaka's aim was perfect and his arrows were infallible. His first arrow killed one Kalakumara, commander of Ajatashatru. On the consecutive nine days the rest of the nine Kalakumaras were killed by Chetaka. Deeply sorrowed by the death of their sons, the Kali queens were initiated as nuns in the holy order of Lord Mahavira. Prince Ajatasattu Ajatashatru was moving towards defeat he practised penance for three days and offered prayers to Sakrendra and Charmendra Indra of different heavens who then helped him in the war. They protected him from the infallible arrow of Chetaka. The war became very severe and by the divine influence of the Indras even the pebbles, straws, leaves hurled by Ajatashatru's men were said to have fell like rocks on the army of Chetaka.
