### [v2.c36.3350](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.3350)

Sukhavihārī Jātaka (No. 10).—The Bodhisatta was once an \*Udicca\*-brahmin and later became a leader of ascetics. When the ascetics came to Benares for the rainy season, the king invited their leader to stay behind while the others returned at the end of the rains. One day the Bodhisatta’s chief disciple visited him and sat down on a mat by his side, exclaiming: “Oh happiness, what happiness!” The king came to pay his respects to the teacher, but was displeased because the disciple still sat there. The Bodhisatta explained that the disciple had also been a king who had renounced his kingship for the ascetic life.
