v2.c8.s2.625

Once Mahāvīra, out of compassion for mother, stopped moving inside the womb. This caused great anxiety to Tisalā who thought that the embryo had been taken away from her womb or it had died, lost or fallen. Knowing the anxiety of his mother the babe started moving as usual. Then Tisalā felt quite happy and joyful. At this moment Mahāvīra resolved not to renounce the world during the life-time of his parents.¹⁹
