The joy he experienced at the birth of his son made him realize something of the affection his own father must have felt for him, and he questioned his mother. She told him stories of his childhood, and he repented, rather belatedly, of his folly and cruelty. Soon after, his mother died of grief, and her death gave rise to the protracted war between Ajātasattu and Pasenadi, as mentioned elsewhere.¹² - [Previous: v2.c29.373](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c29.373) - [Next: v2.c29.375](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c29.375) - [Up: v2.c29](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c29) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c29.374](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c29.374) · Pramāṇa
