Book Synopsis
A collection of fourteen stories that depict Buddha's quest for enlightenment in his former lives. It shows how Buddha suffers mutilations from the wicked and sacrifices himself for those he seeks to save.

Trade Review
If the theological concepts can be complicated, the language and the stories that illustrate them are simple and direct, full of dramatic incident and studded with metaphors that made the world of old India as palpable and romantic as the Baghdad of the Arabian Nights . . . * Harpers Magazine *
