Re: Ten Bodhisattas

Dear Ven. Dhammanando,

I have a book published by PTS in 1975 entitled _The Birth-Stories of the
Ten Bodhisattas and the Dasabodhisattuppattikathaa_  translated and edited
by H. Saddhatissa. Checking against the ten names of the ten future
Sammaa-sambuddhas in the table of contents, I see that they all match your
list of ten except no. 8 which has Narasiiha instead of your
Dhammissara. I have not read the book and so can't say much about it.

Best wishes,
Jim
