v1.c16.134

No such separate Jātaka exists and it is, probably, another name for the Vidhurapaṇḍita Jātaka, which, in its present form, seems to be a conglomeration of various legends which were once separate stories, each with its own title. The Catuposathika Jātaka was evidently one such story, which was later included in the Vidhura Jātaka, as its first section, and came to be known as the Catuposathikakhaṇḍa (see below) of that Jātaka. The first stanza of the Catuposathika Jātaka is quoted in the Catuposathika-khaṇḍa.² ¹ J. iv. 14. ² J. vi. 257.
