Jataka Tales
or
GarlandGarland of Birth Stories of the Buddha (unpublished)
There are twenty stories, retold by me from the three
volume edition of 554 tales.
FoFor over 700 years
storytellers in India kept these stories alive
E.B.Cowell and a
number of graduate students at Cambridge University in England
worked
for ten years translating from the Pali language.
I
suspected that the meaning and content had been bolderized somewhat in 19th
century England,
so freshened them up taking out the moralizing content and
attempted to reinsert significant esoteric
meaning. also, the language was
stilted and foreign to the present ear. My intention is to publish the
retold
Jatakas for children with my own illustrations. It's a labor of love
I've been engaged in since 1969, when there
has been free time and the right
conditions of comfort and stability necessary to concentrate on it
wholeheartedly.
