[edit] Summary
| Description |
This painting depicts Devadatta on one of his attepts to kill the Buddha. He tried to make a large boulder fall on the Buddha while Buddha was walking in a mountaineous region. It is said that the boulder miraculously split in half while going through the air. A splinter of the rock entered the Buddha's foot, and drew his blood. Because of this bad karma, at the time of death Devadatta was reborn in the very deepest hell, a hell which is known by the name Avici. |
