### [v1.c13.302](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c13.302)

\*\*Khurappa Jātaka\*\* (No. 265).—Once the Bodhisatta was a forester, head of five hundred others. They hired themselves out to guide men through the forest. One day, while conducting a caravan, robbers fell on them and all but the Bodhisatta fled; he remained and drove the robbers off. When asked how he could do this, he replied that he who would do heroic deeds must contemn life.
