This was because her child, growing inside her thought his movements might give his mother pain. Not caring for his own discomfort, therefore, he had stopped moving and remained completely still. But now he sensed his mother's fear.
"I feel no movement inside me How do I know my child is alive?" she cried.
"My stillness is having the opposite effect I wanted," he thought, and again began to move, but only slightly. With relief Queen Trisala felt his motions and tears of happiness came to her eyes, while all her attendants were filled with joy,
The great soul in her womb felt his mother's boundless love for him and thought to himself: "How could I ever abandon one who loves me so much? Although in this lifetime I will renounce all comforts I vow that I will not leave home until both my parents have departed this world."
