Sigāla Jātaka (No. 152).—The Bodhisatta was once a lion with six brothers and one sister. When the lions were away after food, a jackal who had fallen in love with the lioness told her of his love. She was greatly insulted, and resolved to tell her brothers and then die. The jackal slunk away and hid in a cave. One by one the lions came in, and when their sister told them of the insult, they tried to reach the jackal by leaping upwards, but perished in the attempt. At last came the Bodhisatta; being wise, he roared the lion’s roar three times and the jackal died. He then consoled his sister. - [Previous: v2.c36.2615](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2615) - [Next: v2.c36.2617](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2617) - [Up: v2.c36](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2616](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2616) · Pramāṇa
