✨❤️Kusa Paba❤️✨

  ✨💖My favourite love story is Kusa Paba. The Kusa Paba historical love story can be identify as one of the incarnations of our Load Buddha.  This explain how Kusa's lover Pabawathie is giving the opportunity to complete the paramitha that must be achieved  to attain enlightenment💖✨.         

This love story can be summed up as this;

              ✨💖King Okkaka is the emperor of India. He rules from Kusawathie city with his Queen Seelawathi and two sons Prince Kusa and Prince Jayampathi. Kusa is strong and competent in all crafts, including warfare. But he has an ugly oil cake shaped face. Since he realizes that no woman is likely to marry him. And he is not interested in marriages. Nonetheless his parents, specially mother urge him to marry. Kusa makes a golden sculpture. The Queen ordered two royal servants to take the stutue to all other countries and find a woman who looks like the statue. After a long time unsuccessful search the two royal servants arrive at Madura City which is the capital city of the Madura kingdom. During the season of the spring festival. Madura is a state under the control of empire of Okkaka's. They place the stutue near the river. Then the nanny of the royal family of Madura Kingdom Kudi comes there and slaps the statue because she recognized the sculpture as the Princess Pabawathie. She is the daughter of King of Madura Kingdom and his queen. The woman who looks like the statue has been found the marriage is arranged. Pabawathie is taken to Kusawathie city and the wedding is conducted without a groom 🌹. 

 

   

                🌹 Seelawathie tells Pabawathie that there is a tradition in their caste that the wife shall not see the husband until she becomes pregnant. Kusa disguises himself as a workman and sees Pabawathie at a stable of horses and elephants. He jokes. Pabawathie urges Seelawathie to show Kusa. She makes both brothers climb onto an elephant and shows both of them. Pabawathie thinks that handsome Jayampathi is her husband Kusa. When she bathing in a pond he hides under the waterlily leaves and catches her hand. Then she identifies him as Kusa and realizes that she was cheated. She leaves for her home Madura. Brokenhearted Kusa goes to Madura and works as a cook, a Potter and a florist for the royal place. He prepares and sends delicious food, beautiful pottery and gariands to Pabawathie. She throws them away after knowing that they were sent by Kusa 🌹. 

             🌹 News speed in other states that Kusa and Pabawathie are divorced. So seven state Kings come to war against King Madu for Pabawathie. Okkaka requests Pabawathie return  to Kusawathi. She refuses. Okkaka orders she is cut into seven pieces and he plans to give those pieces to seven state Kings. Just before her death armed Kusa comes and saves her. Stating that she is wife and no  one should harm her. A rain falls. His face's ugliness is washed away. Kusa and Pabawathie happily return to Kusawathi. Okkaka gives the crown to Kusa making him the emperor❤️✨.
