Short story: Phra Mai
The 15th day of the waxing moon of the 3rd lunar month every year is well known by Buddhists as Makha Bucha Day.
which is important in Buddhism That is to say, it is the day when the Lord Buddha gave his first sermon on Patimokkha.
In the Pañcasudani scriptures It is stated that four important events occurred.
1. Corresponds to the full moon day of the 3rd lunar month.
2. All 1,250 monks traveled to meet at Weluwan Mahavihara Temple. without appointment
3. All the monks attained arhat status.
4. Those monks were Ehi Bhikkhu Upasampada (Buddha ordained it himself)
Therefore, there is another word to call this day: “Chaturangkasannibat Day” or the day when there is a meeting with the 4 elements.
such
It is for this reason that Phra Mai has a problem in his heart because of that important day. There is only the meaning that is not
went to join because the monks who went there all left without an appointment, which is the meaning itself Hundreds of years ago, the monk attained arhat status. He also has magic spells, can fly, glide, walk through the air, and it seems that His Majesty is immortal, does not age, does not die, and most importantly, can foresee events in advance as well.
The Buddha has been around for hundreds of years. Lord Yama saw that it was time for him to atone for his karma. or be reborn as a god in heaven The Lord Death therefore ordered his subordinates to travel to the human world to pick up the monk.
“Phra Mai, your time has come. Please come with me,” the angel of death said humbly to the monk.
Phra Mai woke up from meditation. When he saw who the new person was, he set his mind to answer that person.
“I can't go yet. Because there is one more matter that I haven't done yet.”
When he saw that His Majesty still stood The young angel of death kept quiet and listened while thinking. 'If he were to use the method of forcing the Buddha's will The model used on normal humans will not be successful. Because Phra Mai has great wisdom and power. He definitely can't fight.'
“In that case, I would like to bid farewell and return to hell as usual.” With that, the young angel of death returned and reported to the god of death.
A hundred years later, the Lord Death saw that a long time had passed. Until now, His Majesty is probably able to handle various matters.
Having succeeded, he gave orders to his closest subordinates to come and receive the monk again. But when I arrived, I still received the same answer as a hundred years ago. His subordinates then returned to report.
The Lord Yama was wondering what the matter was still unable to be dealt with by His Majesty. So he gave the Buddha another hundred years. When the time is up, you will travel to receive the royal command by yourself.
One hundred years complete again Lord Death came to the human world to receive the Buddha.
“Phra Mai, you have been here for many years. Is there any matter that you still have outstanding questions about?” The Prince of Death asked.
"have"
“Can I help you?”
“Yes, just giving me time to wait is enough.”
The Prince of Death was silent for a moment. Before asking further, “Phra Mai, can you tell me? that you are waiting
What?”
“I am waiting for the next Buddha. I'm sure you'll invite me to join. Or if you don't invite me, I know that you

Definitely come to me.”
The angel of death doesn't know what to do. If you want to force and threaten, you can do it. It will just continue to create bad karma. So he retreated back to hell as before.
