Rasavāhinī

Text

巴利語故事集,收錄一百零三則故事,由斯里蘭卡林住派僧人韋德訶編纂,成書年代約在十四世紀初。

A collection of stories in Pāḷi, by Vedeha, a monk of the Vanavāsī fraternity in Sri Lanka. The work probably belongs to the early part of the fourteenth century, and seems to be a revision of an old Pāḷi translation made from an original Singhalese compilation by Raṭṭhapāla Thera of the Mahāvihāra.

The present text consists of one hundred and three stories, forty relating to incidents occurring in Jambudīpa and the rest to Sri Lanka. There exists a glossary on the work called the Rasavāhinīganthi (P.L.C.210; Svd.1264). v.l. Madhurarasavāhinī.
