By Richard Morris

Book Overview

The Buddhavamsa and the Cariya-Pitaka is a book written by Richard Morris in 1882. The book is a translation of two texts from the Pali Canon, a collection of Buddhist scriptures written in the ancient Pali language. The first text is the Buddhavamsa, which is a collection of stories about the previous lives of the Buddha. The second text is the Cariya-Pitaka, which is a collection of stories about the lives of the Buddha's disciples.
