high-definition creative commons photographs from The Story of Śakra (Karuṇā) together with further information.

In a life as Śakra, King of the Gods, the Bodhisattva is engaged in a war with demons. While retreating, he orders his chariot to turn back—risking capture—just to avoid crushing a nest of eagles. His compassion impresses his enemies and secures his victory.
