Image description

Anathapindaka's Great Act of Charity, BC 483. One of Buddha's chief haunts was the Jetavana, the garden of Prince Jeta at Sravasti, and amongst his prominent supporters was the princely merchant Anathapindaka. After Buddha's death he bought the Jetavana for as much bullion as could be spread over it, dedicated it for a monastery of the new order of monks instituted by Buddha, and built within it two shrines, Gandakuti and Kosambakuti, famous in Buddhist story. The scene of the dedication by libation and purchase with ingots of metal is a favourite one in ancient Buddhist sculpture. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920).
