2004 Dhamma Jnr1 Part 1

The Bodhisatta Gotama received his first affirmation (niyata vivarana) from Buddha (Kassapa, Dipankara, Medhankara, Sobhita)

One of these does not come under the Five Great Observances (Panca Maha Vilokana) (Time, COuntry, Father, Mother)

The Brahmin who said that Prince Siddhattha would definitely be a Buddha is (Sudatta, Suyama, Lakkhana, Kondanna)

(Rahula, Nanda, Kaludayi, Nalaka) retired from household life for the sake of the future Buddha

The highest gift of all gifts is (amisa, patipatti, abhaya, Dhamma)
