Omschrijving
The Gatakamala, also known as the Garland of Birth Stories, is a collection of Buddhist tales compiled by the Indian Buddhist monk Arya Sura in the 2nd century CE. This book was translated into English by James Gray in 1895. The stories in the Gatakamala are based on the previous lives of the Buddha and his disciples, and are meant to illustrate Buddhist principles and teachings. The tales are presented in a poetic form, with each story being a self-contained narrative.The book is divided into four parts, each containing a different number of stories. The first part contains 28 stories, the second part has 26 stories, the third part has 25 stories, and the fourth part has 27 stories. The stories in the Gatakamala cover a wide range of topics, including morality, karma, rebirth, and the importance of compassion and generosity. Some of the most well-known stories in the book include ""The Hare's Self-Sacrifice"", ""The Monkey King's Sacrifice"", and ""The Story of the Golden Goose"".Overall, the Gatakamala is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Buddhist literature and philosophy, as it provides insight into the beliefs and practices of early Indian Buddhism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
