Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Buddhacarita is the most famous work of Asvaghosa, the wellknown Buddhist poetphilosopher supposed to have been a contemporary of King Kaniska of the early 2nd century a.c. Of the twentyeight cantos of the epic poem a little less than half is now available in the original, but complete translations in Chinese and Tibetan have been preserved. This edition consists of three parts. The first part contains the Sanskrit text and the second the translation of the first fourteen cantos, filling up the lacunae in the Sanskrit from the Tibetan, together with an Introduction dealing with various aspects of the poets works, with notes which discuss the many difficulites of text and translation, and an Index. The third part contains translation of Cantos XVXXVIII based on the available Tibetan and Chinese versions so as to arrive as near the meaning of Asvaghosas original text. The poem falls into four distinct quarters of seven cantos describing birth and youth of the hero, enlightenment after long questing, how the Buddha made his discovery by teaching available to all beings, a mission ending with a universal conquest in which the hero converts the rulers and people in many countries to the new doctrine and the events leading up to the Parinirvana of the Buddha.
