    visit of indra and gandhārva pañcaśikha to the buddha meditating in a cave

Note

  • The Buddha is meditating in a cave when the god Indra approaches him with the gandharva Pañcasika. The gandharva plays the harp to draw the Buddha’s attention. The latter eventually answers Indra’s questions on the causes of suffering in living beings.
