Stories Relating to Anicca, Dukkha and Anatta
While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verses (277),
(278) and (279) of this book, with reference to three groups of five hundred
bhikkhus each.On Impermanence (Anicca)
Five hundred bhikkhus, after receiving their subject of meditation from the
Buddha, went into the forest to practise meditation, but they made little
progress. So, they returned to the Buddha to ask for another subject of
meditation which would suit them better. On reflection, the Buddha found that
those bhikkhus had, during the time of Kassapa Buddha, meditated on
impermanence. So, he said, “Bhikkhus, all conditioned phenomena are
subject to change and decay and are therefore impermanent.”Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:
Verse 277: “All conditioned phenomena are
impermanent”; when one sees this with Insight-wisdom, one becomes
weary of dukkha (i.e., the khandhas). This is the Path to Purity.
At the end of the discourse those five hundred bhikkhus attained arahatship.
On Dukkha
The story is the same as the story on Anicca. Here, the Buddha on reflection
found that another group of five hundred bhikkhus had meditated on dukkha. So,
he said, “Bhikkhus, all khandha aggregates are oppressive and
unsatisfactory; thus all khandhas are dukkha.”Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:
Verse 278: “All conditioned phenomena are
dukkha”; when one sees this with Insight-wisdom, one becomes
weary of dukkha (i.e., the khandhas). This is the Path to Purity.
At the end of the discourse those five hundred bhikkhus attained arahatship.
On Insubstantiality or Non-Self (Anatta)
The story is the same as the stories on Anicca and Dukkha. Here, the Buddha
on reflection found that still another group of five hundred bhikkhus had
meditated on insubstantiality or non-self (anatta). So, he said,
“Bhikkhus, all khandha aggregates are insubstantial; they are not subject
to one’s control.”Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:
Verse 279: “All phenomena (dhammas) are without
Self”; when one sees this with Insight-wisdom, one becomes weary
of dukkha (i.e., the khandhas). This is the Path to Purity.
At the end of the discourse all those five hundred bhikkhus attained
arahatship.

Salt Lake City, often shortened to Salt Lake or SLC, is the capital and the most populous city of the U.S. state of Utah. With a population of 189,899 as of the 2011 estimate,[3] the city lies in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area, which has a total population of 1,145,905. Salt Lake City is further situated in a larger urban area known as the Wasatch Front, which has a population of 2,328,299.[4] It is one of only two major urban areas in the Great Basin (the other being Reno, Nevada), and the largest in the Intermountain West.
The city was founded in 1847 by Brigham Young and his Mormon followers, who extensively irrigated and cultivated the arid valley. Due to its proximity to the Great Salt Lake, the city was originally named “Great Salt Lake City”—the word “great” was dropped from the official name in 1868.[5] Although Salt Lake City is still home to the headquarters of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), fewer than half the population of Salt Lake City proper are members of the LDS Church today.[6]
Immigration of international LDS members, mining booms, and the construction of the first transcontinental railroad initially brought economic growth, and the city was nicknamed the Crossroads of the West. It was traversed by the Lincoln Highway, the first transcontinental highway, in 1913, and presently two major cross-country freeways, I-15 and I-80, intersect in the city. Salt Lake City has since developed a strong outdoor recreation tourist industry based primarily on skiing, and was host to the 2002 Winter Olympics. It is the industrial banking center of the United States.[7]
THE CUNNING WOLF
[27]
| O |

NCE upon a time the people in a certain town
went out into the woods for a holiday.
They took baskets full of good things to eat.
But when noontime came they ate all the meat
they had brought with them, not leaving any for supper.
“I will get some fresh meat. We will make a fire here and roast it,”
said one of the men.
So taking a club, he went to the lake where the animals came to drink.
He lay down, club in hand, pretending to be dead.
![[Illustration]](http://www.mainlesson.com/books/babbitt/morejataka/zpage028.gif)
When the animals came down to the lake
they saw the man lying there and they watched him for some time.
“That man is playing a trick on us, I believe,”
said the King of the Wolves. “The rest of you stay here
while I will see whether he is really dead,
or whether he is pretending to be dead.”
[28] Then the cunning King of the Wolves crept up to the Man
and slyly pulled at his club.
At once the man pulled back on his club.
Then the King of the Wolves ran off saying:
“If you had been dead, you would not have pulled back on your club
when I tried to pull it away. I see your trick.
You pretend you are dead so that you may kill one of us for your supper.”
The man jumped up and threw his club at the King of the Wolves.
But he missed his aim. He looked for the other animals
but there was not one in sight. They had all run away.
[29] Then the man went back to his friends, saying:
“I tried to get fresh meat by playing a trick on the animals,
but the cunning Wolf played a better trick on me,
and I could not get one of them.”
