Question
A figure who collects 999 of these objects is unable to catch up to a leisurely walking Buddha, but simultaneously finds that the Buddha has already stopped. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name these objects collected by Aṅgulimāla, who later joins the Sangha and teaches Manjusri about Buddha-nature. Tibetan tantric deities are frequently depicted with kapala made from these objects.
ANSWER: bones [or skulls; or skeletons; or fingers; prompt on corpses]
[10m] The reformed Aṅgulimāla made a proclamation of this concept to help a woman during childbirth. Tiantai Buddhists understand a threefold form of this concept rather than a distinction between saṁvṛti and paramārtha.
ANSWER: truth [or satya; accept sacca-kiriyāa]
[10e] Aṅgulimāla’s story is an oft-cited example of this concept, one of the Four Immeasurables along with sympathetic joy, equanimity, and loving kindness. Bodhisattvas are held to possess this concept for all humanity.
ANSWER: compassion [or karuṇā]
