"One such story in the Karmashataka is 'Give It to Me,' a tale that takes its name from the demand of the unnamed brahmin boy who is its central character. The boy encounters the Buddha just as a householder places a laddu, a kind of sweet treat, into the Buddha's begging bowl. Fixated on getting it, the boy addresses the Buddha by name, shouting, 'Hey, Gautama!' and impulsively demands, 'Gimme that laddu!'

The Buddha, ever generous, agrees, on one condition: 'Child, if you say, I don’t need that laddu, I'll hand it over.' The boy repeats after him, 'Hey, Gautama, I don't need that laddu,' and the Buddha, true to his word, places the treat in the boy’s hand."

- Mindy Newman and Kaia Fischer, from "One Hundred Karmas"
