(There is no relation between the title of the manuscript and the following textual description.)
While the Buddha was staying at the Jetavana Monastery, he narrated a story of Mrs. Kisakhotami. When her son died, she was terribly in misery. She carried his body and went from house to house to ask for medicine. When she met the Buddha and asked for medicine, he suggested her look for cabbage seeds from a household whose family members had never died. She followed his instruction but could find no seeds in such a house because there was no house without death. Then she realised death as a normal fate for all living beings.
