The Jataka V5: Or Stories Of The Buddha’s Former Births is a book written by E. B. Cowell. It is a collection of stories that tell the tales of the Buddha’s past lives, also known as Jatakas. These stories are deeply rooted in Buddhist mythology and are believed to have been narrated by the Buddha himself. The book is the fifth volume in a series of translations of the Jataka tales. It includes stories such as The Story of the Elephant, The Story of the Monkey, and The Story of the King’s Son. Each story teaches a moral lesson and provides insight into the Buddhist philosophy of karma and rebirth. The Jataka V5 is an essential read for anyone interested in Buddhist mythology and philosophy.In Six Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
