Description
The Jataka - Volume I
tr. Robert Chalmers (ed. E. B. Cowell)
This is the first of six volumes of the complete Jataka translation.
The Jataka is a huge collection of fables framed as previous incarnations of the Buddha, many of which either have parallels or derivatives in western folklore and literature. Although the Jataka is not considered part of the canonical Buddhist scripture, it is very popular.
