During the time of Buddha, there lived a woman called Kisa Gotami. Her son had become very sick and had died. But Kisa Gotami, who had loved him very deeply, refused to accept his death.
During the time of Buddha, there lived a woman called Kisa Gotami. Her son had fallen sick and died. But Kisa Gotami, who had loved him deeply, refused to accept his death.
She went around asking for medicine that would revive her son. Everyone knew that her son was dead and they told her that she was wasting her time. A village elder took pity on her and told her to go to the Buddha.
Oh, what should I do?
Go to the Buddha. Maybe he can help you.
So Kisa Gotami now went to the Buddha who told her to bring some mustard seeds. Kisa Gotami was overjoyed but Buddha stopped her and added that the mustard seeds must come from a family where nobody had died.
Wait, the mustard seeds must come from a family where nobody has died.
So Kisa Gotami went from house to house asking for mustard seeds but wherever she went someone or the other had died.
Do not remind us of our grief.
Buddha had intended to let Kisa Gotami find out herself that she had to accept her sons's death instead of telling her this harsh reality.
I hope that she accepts her son's death.
Kisa Gotami then understood how death affects everyone. Leaving her son's body, she went back to buddha and requested to be a nun.
I wish to be a nun.
