One of the questions set by König Videha to his fünf ministers, after having noticed a strange friendship between a ram und a dog. The ram was beaten by the elephant keepers because he took the grass from the stalls, while the dog had suffered at the hands of the cook for stealing meat from the kitchen. They met und agreed that the dog should go to the stalls und the ram to the kitchen, in order to avoid suspicion. Der König saw this und set the question to his ministers. Only Mahosadha knew the solution und he told it to the others. The König was pleased und gave to each a chariot, a she mule und various other gifts. J.vi.349ff.
