Buddha Carithaya Part 1.pdf

Chronicle of the Buddha’s Life (Part 1) is an illustrated comic adaptation depicting the life of the Bodhisatta and the Buddha. The illustrations are sourced from Putet Comics (Myanmar style), distributed via pathnirvana@gmail.com.

This first part begins with the story of the ascetic Sumedha receiving the prophetic declaration (niyata-vivarana) from Dipankara Buddha, the Bodhisatta’s stay in the Tusita heaven as the deity Setaketu, the conception and birth of Prince Siddhartha, and his encounters with the first two omens (an old person and a sick person).

The narrative concludes on page 45 with a note stating that Part 2 is forthcoming.
