Disturbed by scene of death and suffering, Prince Siddhartha of Kapilavashu, strave to find the reason for pain and found the path to peace and fulfillment. This collection of Buddhist tales tells of Buddha and the impact he had on those whose lives he touched.

Amrapali, the dancer, who could find no happiness in fame and fortune. Vasavadatta, who was rejected by the very society that once feted her. And Angulimala, who murdered hundreds of innocents, yet found forgiveness in the arms of Buddha.
