: MORE TALES
FROM THE JATAKAS
All living creatures die to be born again, according to Hindu belief.
d has it that several lifetimes as a Bodhisattva went into the
making of the Buddha, the enlightened one.
The Boclhisattva came in many rorms—man, monkey. deer,
elephant. lion. Whatever his mortal frame, he spread the message of
justice and wisdom, tempered with compassion. This wisdom of right
thinking and right living is preserved in the Jataka Tales.
We cannot assign a definite date to the Jataka Tales. Taking into
account archacological and literary evidence, it appears that they were
compiled between 300 B. —. and A. D. 500. They give us invaluable
information about ancient Indian civilization, culture ancl thought.
According to Matha Limmaggea Jataka, the Bodhisattva was once
born as Aushadha Kumar, the son of Seth Shrivardhana of
Wavarmajjhaka.
The first hwo tales in this epecial issue recount the incidents in the
life of Aushadha Kumar. The third tale is about the Queen of Mithila.
She takes refuge in Falachampa after her husband is killed in battle,
and grooms her son to be a prince.
