Omschrijving

The Romantic Legends of Sakya Buddha is a book that contains a translation of the Chinese version of the Abhiniskramana Sutra by Samuel Beal. The book is focused on the romantic legends surrounding the life of Sakya Buddha, who is considered to be the founder of Buddhism. The Abhiniskramana Sutra is a Buddhist text that describes the final departure of the Buddha from his palace to become a wandering ascetic. The Chinese version of the text contains many romantic legends that are not found in other versions of the text. The book provides a detailed account of these legends, including stories of the Buddha's encounters with various gods and demons, as well as his interactions with his disciples and followers. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the legends and stories that have grown up around the life of the Buddha.1875. This work is a translation of the Chinese version of the Abhiniskramana Sutra done into that language by Djnanakuta, a Buddhist priest from North India. It refers to Buddha's leaving the palace for a religious life, as in Buddha's flight from his palace to become an ascetic. The legend also includes Buddha's previous and subsequent history. The work is called Romantic Legend, because, as is well known, the first romances were merely metrical histories. There can be no doubt that the present work contains as a some of the earliest verses in which the History of Buddha was sung, long before the work itself was penned.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
