(21 ) Mathaka Baktha Jathakaya / Pansiya panas Jathaka stories

” This story was told by the Loard Buddha while at Jetavana
about Feasts for the Dead. For at this time the folk were putting to death goats,
sheep, and other animals, and offering them up as what is called a Feast for the
Dead, for the sake of their departed kinsmen. Finding them thus engaged, the
monks asked the Loard Buddha saying: “Just now, sir, the folk are taking the lives of
many living creatures and offering them up as what is called a Feast for the
Dead. Can it be, sir, that there is any good in this?”
“No, monks” replied the Loard Buddha “not even when life is taken with the object of
providing a Feast for the Dead, does any good arise therefrom. In bygone days the wise, preaching the Dhamma from mid-air, and showing the evil
consequences of the practice, made the whole continent renounce it. But now,
when their previous existences have become confused in their minds, the
practice has sprung up afresh.” And, so saying, he told this story of the past
