The danger of associating with the villain.(part 5)

When the hermit was back , he offered a blessing to a king for he would be complete in the ten royal virtues.(Teaching about the ten royal virtues existed before the time of Lord Buddha . The teachings were promoted by Lord Buddha , who taught the virtues for monarchs to his principles)

The ten royal virtues are:-

1.  Giving 

2.  Morality

3.  Donation

4.  Honesty

5.  Gentleness

6.  Perseverance

7.  Non-anger

8.  Not causing harm

9.  Endurance or patience

10. Not going wrong

The king who loved to hunt the deer was so impressed by the virtue of Dhamma (goodness), he gave his word to the hermit that he would quit hunting and killing. He would also manage Utarapancala to be the serene kingdom of Dhamma(goodness).

The hermit said " Bless you long live your Majesty" The hermit offered the parakeet, Bupphaka, to the king in order to remind him of one of the highest blessing which say that keeping the good man company brings you happiness.

After King Pancala went back to the city, he was pleased to declare the royal decree of disallowing to kill and to cage the animals.  He maintained providing education to his citizen in order to protect them from badness to let them aware of immorality and not to associate with the villain.

Finally, Utarapancala became prosperous and the people lived happily until the end of the king's life.
