Publisher's Synopsis
""The Jataka V2"" is a book that contains a collection of stories about the previous lives of the Buddha, also known as Gotama Buddha. The book is written in English and was published in 1879. It is accompanied by a commentary that provides further insight into the stories. The tales in the book are known as ""Jatakas"" and are believed to have been passed down orally for centuries before being written down. The stories offer moral lessons and teachings that are still relevant today. The author of the book, V. Fausboll, was a Danish scholar who translated and compiled the Jatakas from ancient Pali texts. This book is the second volume of the Jataka series and is a valuable resource for those interested in Buddhist literature and philosophy.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.
