Baralam And Yewasef is a book written by E. A. Wallis Budge that presents the Ethiopian version of a Buddhist legend about the Buddha and the Bodhisattva. The book is a Christianized recension of the original legend and includes elements of Ethiopian Christianity.

Along the way, they encounter the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, who teach them about the nature of reality and the path to enlightenment.
