41. The Bodhisatta – As A Garuda King
Once upon a time king Tamba reigned in Benares, and his queen named Sussondi was a woman of surpassing beauty. At that time the Bodhisatta came to life as a young Garuda. Now the Naga Island was then known as Seruma island, and the Bodhisatta lived on this island in the abode of the Garudas. And he went to Benares, disguised as a youth, and played dice with king Tamba.
