2. Palāsa Jātaka (No. 370).—Once the Bodhisatta was a golden goose living in Cittakūṭa. On his way to and fro from the Himālaya, he rested on a palāsa-tree and a friendship sprang up between him and the tree-sprite. One day a bird dropped a banyan-seed in the fork of the palāsa-tree from which a sapling sprang. The goose advised the sprite to destroy it, but he paid no heed, and by and by the banyan grew up and destroyed the palāsa.
