THE CHILDHOOD OF THE PRINCE
The prince grew up to be kind and generous. He was liked by all. When still in his early years, Prince Siddhartha witnessed a bird carrying a worm that had been turned up by the farmer’s plough. This sight caused him to think about the unhappy situation of creatures which were killed by other creatures for food.
Seated under a rose apple tree the young prince experienced the joy of mediation. At another time, the compassionate prince saved the life of a swan which had been woulded by devadatta’s arrow. As a prince, young Siddhartha received and education in the arts and sciences and mastered the art of war and the royal sports of his time.
