故事 105：自省向善，心静如莲
摩诃男是佛陀叔父斛饭王的儿子。未出家前，他被称为拘利太子。在释迦族中，他是最早随佛陀出家的人。
由于曾经是太子，摩诃男脾气非常大。在僧团中，动不动就发火，甚至跟别人大动干戈。
有一天，他躺在祇园精舍里琢磨，我为什么会跟人动怒，甚至打架呢？他想了半天，觉得都是别人得罪了他，要不就是别人冒犯了他，总之，过错都不在自己。
一天，他又跟人发生了冲突。一气之下，他收拾行李离开了，去了一个叫灵鹫山的地方。那儿与世隔绝，没有骚扰，没有纠纷。他想，这样就不会有人惹他生气了。
摩诃男在灵鹫山住下之后，有一次，去下山提水。回来的路上，一不小心把罐子弄倒了。他只好再回头去提，谁知回来的路上绊了一跤，水又撒了一大半。第三次，他小心又小心，结果还是没把水弄回去。一气之下，他把罐子给摔了。
望着一地的碎片，他好像明白了些什么，自言自语道："以前冲别人发火，都以为是别人的错。现在就我一人，还发这么大的脾气，可见是自己的原因。"
《苦阴经》载：摩诃男在舍卫城之琉璃王讨伐迦毗罗卫城释迦族时，为救释迦族，自愿舍命于水中。在大是大非面前，勇于承认自己的错误，不为自己的过错寻找借口，也不把责任推到他人的头上。
