The story of industrious person (part 6)

When the widow knew the story, she cried. She gave him a hug and rubbed the herbal essence on Ayyakala the black ox whom she took very good care of. She kept assuming that he was her son, not an animal that was petted just like any other men did.
The widow said" Ayyakala, my son, even though you're just a beast, you have a good heart. You're grateful. Come here, son. I'll massage you with the essential oil, so you can relieve your tiresome"
Many years later, the widow and the black ox passed away from the human world, but they still bound and supported each other later in other lives, just everyone who meets and supports the friend nowadays.

In the advent of the Buddha, the widow became Pra Ubolvanna, the womanelder .
Ayyakala, the black ox turned to be the lord Buddha.

The scriptural verses of the Jataka:-
"Yago Yago Garu Dhuram Yago
Gambhiravaggani Gahasasu Kanhi Yunjanti
Savasasu Gam Vahage Dhuram"
 = Any place where there was a heavy burden.
    Any place where there was a distant path.
    People could yoke Kanha the ox at right there.
    For Kanha the ox could haul the luggage.
