Jataka Tales: Past Lives of the Buddha from Animal to Enlightenment
Exploring Jātaka tales, stories of the past lives of the Buddha, allows us to better understand the world of folktales, history of the early Buddhist community, and the journey of the soul in reincarnation across the cosmos toward enlightenment. We will explore nine of the 547 Jātakas: Sammodamana, Suvannahamsa, Nigrodhamiga, Mandhatu, Vedabbha, Mahajanaka, Sama, Muga-Pakkha, and Vessantara.
Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”
