Once in the past, a man lived in a remote village. One day he saw a Paccekka Buddha (Private Buddha) was in an alms-round, he felt faithful in him. So, the man invited the Buddha to his house. He offered the Buddha the yaku rice, rice porridge and fruits. Later, the man stayed overnight in the forest for hunting. During his stays in the forest, the private Buddha still went to the village for his alms-round everyday. The man’s wife often invited the Buddha to her house and offered him food. When the man was back and knew that his wife invited the Buddha to the house everyday, he was jearous. Thinking to kill the Buddha, the man took his archery and seeked for him.
