In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper NamesOnce Devadatta was born as king of the monkeys, and the Bodhisatta was his son. The monkey king had the habit of gelding with his teeth all his male offspring, lest they should one day supersede him; but the Bodhisattas mother left the herd before the child was born and brought him up elsewhere. When he grew up he came to see the monkey king, and on the latters trying to kill him by crushing him in a false embrace, the Bodhisatta showed greater strength than his sire. Then Devadatta asked him to fetch lotuses from a neighbouring lake, which was inhabited by an ogre, saying that he wished to crown his son as king. The Bodhisatta guessed the presence of the ogre and plucked the flowers by leaping several times from one bank to the other, grasping them on his way. The ogre seeing this expressed his admiration, saying that those who combine the three qualities of dexterity, valour, and resource can never be vanquished. When the monkey king saw his son returning with the ogre, who was carrying the flowers, he died of a broken heart. The story was related in reference to hunting. J.i.280-3.
