In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper NamesThe Sumangala Vilasini (DA.i.130) mentions a Jataka by this name, together with the Vessantara Jataka, and says that the earth trembled at the preaching of these Jatakas.
Fausbolls edition contains no Jataka of this name, nor have I been able to trace it elsewhere. It may have some connection with the Pamsukuladhovana patihariya, which formed one of the fifteen hundred miracles that assisted the conversion of Uruvela Kassapa. See Vin.i.29.
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
