Once Ajatashatru was eating his meal with his newborn son in his lap, his son suddenly urinated, of which some drops fell onto his plate but due to affection for his child he did not change the plate but wiped the drops with his own patta (cloth on the shoulder) and continued to eat from the same plate.
Setelah Ajatashatru sedang makan dengan anak yang baru lahir di pangkuan, anaknya tiba-tiba buang air kecil, yang beberapa tetes jatuh ke piringnya namun karena kasih sayang untuk anaknya dia tidak mengubah piring tapi menyeka tetes dengan patta sendiri (kain di bahu) dan terus makan dari piring yang sama.
