338 Thusa Jātaka (JTA 132) The Four Charms Ashin Sarana:
Valentina’s drawing Long ago the son of King Bramadhatta was trained by a teacher at Takkasila, and when he mastered everything, he prepared to return to Baranasi, but the teacher realized that when the prince became king, he would be in danger by his own son, so he taught him the four charms. When he got back to Baranasi, he became king, but his son was jealous of him, and the attendants said to just kill the king now so the prince can take the throne. With that, the prince decided to poison the king, but he recited one of the charms, and another time, the prince tried to kill him with his sword, but the king recited a charm, and another time, the prince tried to hide in the closet and kill him, but the king again recited a charm. With the last try, the prince tried to hide under the couch and kill him, but the king recited a charm. With shock and fear, the prince begged for forgiveness, but the king threw him in a prison.Kids’ drawing
