THE BUDDHA SUBDUING THE FIERCE , DRUNKENED
ELEPHANT , NALAGIRI ; RELEASE BY THE WICKED DEVADATTA.
When the Buddha was on his way to the city of
Rajagaha, Devadatta ordered the release of the fierce elephant, Nalagiri
to harm Him. As the elephant charged towards the Buddha, everyone ran away
leaving a mother and her baby on the ground. The Buddha radiated His infinite
Compassion to calm and subdued the elephant before it could trample the
helpless baby.
