Then King Aj\u0101tasattu of Magadha, son of the princess of Videha, mobilized an army of four divisions and marched to K\u0101si to attack King Pasenadi of Kosala. When King Pasenadi heard of this, he mobilized an army of four divisions and marched to K\u0101si to defend it against Aj\u0101tasattu. Then the two kings met in battle. And in that battle Aj\u0101tasattu defeated Pasenadi, who withdrew to his own capital at S\u0101vatth\u012b. Then several mendicants robed up in the morning and, taking their bowls and robes, entered S\u0101vatth\u012b for alms. Then, after the meal, when they returned from almsround, they went up to the Buddha, bowed, sat down to one side, and told him what had happened. Then the Buddha said: \u201cMendicants, King Aj\u0101tasattu has bad friends, companions, and associates. But King Pasenadi has good friends, companions, and associates. Yet on this day King Pasenadi will have a bad night\u2019s sleep as one defeated.\u201d That is what the Buddha said. \u2026 \u201cVictory breeds enmity; the defeated sleep badly. The peaceful sleep at ease, having left victory and defeat behind.\u201d","title":"Battle (1st)","tradition":"Samyutta Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":180}
