The Rakshasa Ghost
& the Bhikshu
The Buddha’s Wisdom Vol. I explores the compassionate wisdom of the Buddha’s past lives in this collection of three stories, as told by the Venerable Master Hsuan Hua. From the Rakshasa Ghost to the life of the Great Sea Turtle, we see how the virtues of joy, giving, compassion, and kindness weave together the road to enlightenment for the Buddha—translated into English and Mandarin.
