One day the only child of a woman named Kisa Gotami died. She wandered the streets carrying her son's body. Deranged by grief, she begged for medicine for her boy. Finally, a kind man pitied her and directed her to the Buddha. When she appealed to Him for medicine, the Buddha gently answered: "Bring me a handful of mustard seed from a household where no man, woman, nor child has ever died."
