“From now on, never cease to investigate the truth. Take nothing on hearsay, but examine all till you are sure that it satisfies the demands of your own reason.” Rafe Martin and “The Wise Crow Jataka”
Jataka tales are part of classical Buddhist folklore. They are the stories of the Buddhas’ past lives and bodhisattva journey. This program features my version of “The Wise Crow Jataka,” found in the collection Endless Path, Awakening Within the Buddhist Imagination by Rafe Martin. Martin writes, “Whatever we’re going through, the Buddha went through it too. Whatever shortcomings we have, the Buddha had them too.”
