Buddhaghosha's Parables is a collection of Buddhist stories written by the ancient Indian scholar and philosopher, Buddhaghosha. Originally compiled in the 5th century CE, these parables were intended to illustrate Buddhist teachings and provide moral guidance to followers of the religion. The stories cover a wide range of topics, from the importance of compassion and selflessness to the dangers of greed and attachment. They feature a diverse cast of characters, including kings, monks, merchants, and animals, and are told in a simple, accessible style that is easy to understand. Despite their ancient origins, these parables continue to resonate with readers today, offering timeless wisdom and insight into the human condition. This edition of Buddhaghosha's Parables was first published in 1870 and has since become a classic of Buddhist literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
