Vīmaṃsana-khaṇḍa.—The section of the Mūgapakkha Jātaka which describes the various tests applied to Temiya to discover whether his appearance of being deaf and dumb was a pretence.¹ 1. Vīra Thera.—He was born in Sāvatthi in the family of a minister of Pasenadi and became a great warrior. He married, and, on the birth of his son, left the world, attaining arahantship in due course. His former wife tried to win him back to household life, but he showed her in a verse¹ that her efforts were futile.
