Angulimala - Angulimala was born in India to a noble family. On his 16th birthday his father sent him to complete his education and Angulimala became the teacher's favorite; the other jealous students told him Angulimala was flirting with the teacher's wife. Deciding to punish his former star pupil, he told Angulimala: "You have almost completed your training; there is just one thing left to do. Once you finish your life of suffering will be over, and you will become a Bodhisattva. You must single-handedly kill 1,000 people." Angulimala changed: once he was bright and his mind light; he was tall, handsome and muscular. Now he turned grim and ugly, hunched over and plodding. He no longer laughed or spoke and he haunted the forests like a wild animal. He endeavored to complete his task, until an enlightening encounter with the Buddha halted his bloody quest. He then followed the path to become an arahant.
