นิทานชาดกภาษาอังกฤษเรื่อง 

kapotaka Jataka

The story about the harm of being vacillating

The motive of the Lord Buddha’s recollection of this story can be summarized as follows:

....In the Buddha time, there was a monk with a nature of capriciousness. With such nature, he inconstantly practised meditation, resulting in achieving no meditative attainment. His fellow monks, therefore, brought him to see the Lord Buddha. After being questioned by the Lord, he admitted of being fickle in practice. 

.....The Lord Buddha kindly employed the knowledge of insight to recollect the monk’s previous life and told the monk that, ‘in one of your previous life times, because of your vacillating habit, you caused yourself being killed and your best friend having no alternative but to leave his residence.’ The Lord, so, took the opportunity referring to the story of Kapotaka as described in the above details. 

     
:The inspirations drawn from the story of this Jataka:
 
.....1. We should develop a habit of training ourselves to be a steadfast person; do not allow our mind oscillating to the rise and fall of our own temperament. Whenever you set your mind to do any goodness, do it with unyielding spirit, or else, you are considered being good for nothing. 

.....2. In association with good friends, we should listen to their well-wished advices, considering it and taking it into practice. 

.....3. Once seeing our own shortcomings or any inappropriate behaviour, we should quickly make them up and develop the appropriate conducts to replace because if becoming our habit trait, it will be carried with us to the next rebirth. 

.....4. Those harming the individual who has given them the helping hand are considered being incomparably evil and contemptible. We should avoid befriending this kind of people.
