Pañcagaru Jātaka (No. 132)=Bhiruka Jātaka.—The Bodhisatta was once the youngest of the hundred sons of Brahmadatta, king of Benares. He had, as far as could be seen, no chance of being king, but, on seeking the counsel of a Pacceka Buddha and following his advice, he became king on his father’s death. For details reference is invited to the “Takkasilā Jātaka,” this evidently being another name for the Telapatta Jātaka (q.v.).
