012.1 – Nikorata (part 1)
There was a daughter of the millionaire. She was a moral person. She would like to renounce worldly life. Although she repeatedly asked her parents, they did not allow her to became a monk because their family was rich and she is the only child of them.
When she grew up, she was married and got pregnant but she did not know that she was pregnant.
One day, there was a festival in the city. The city was decorated as the heaven. Although most people were beautifully dressed, adorned, and perfumed, she still did as everyday.
Her hasband asked her “My love, the whole city enjoy the festival. Why didn’t you get dressed?”
“Dear, this body is like a corpse. It’s no use dressing and adorning a corpse. This body is full of excretion. It’s not clean. It’s actually appears like a corpse. It has parents as birthplace. It normally decomposes and scatters. Decorating our body is like decorating an excrement pot.” She explained.
“My dear, you realized the disadvantage of this body. Why didn’t you become a monk ?” Her hasband asked.
“My dear hasband, if I’m allowed, I’ll become a monk today.” She replied.
“Good, I allow you to become a monk.” Her hasband said.
