81. The Bodhisatta – As Asadisa Kumara

Once upon a time, when Brahmadatta was king of Benares, the Bodhisatta was conceived as the son of the Queen. She delivered a male child and was named as Asadisa Kumara, Prince Peerless. About the time he was able to walk, the Queen conceived one who was also to be a wise being. She delivered another son and named him as Brahmadatta Kumara, or Prince Heaven sent.
